Sex Worth Waiting For | Song of Solomon 4 | Pastor Levi Lusko

In this message from Pastor Levi Lusko, Sex Worth Waiting For, we step into Song of Solomon 4 and see a picture of intimacy the way God designed it—unrushed, selfless, and sacred. In a culture that distorts and rushes sexuality, this passage reveals a better way: one rooted in patience, communication, and covenant. As Solomon and the Shulamite come together on their wedding night, we see that true intimacy is not about performance or pressure, but about presence, generosity, and honoring God. This message will help you: - Understand God’s design for sex within marriage - See why waiting builds deeper intimacy and trust - Value purity as protection, not restriction IN THIS MESSAGE: 00:00 Introduction to Song of Solomon 4 02:10 Why the World’s View of Sex is Broken 05:26 Is Sex Really Worth Waiting For? 07:12 The Secret to a Gentle Wedding Night 11:30 Why It’s Okay to be "Bad" at First 14:35 Microwaves vs. Crockpots: Understanding Your Spouse 16:37 The Single Best Piece of Sex Advice 21:03 Reclaiming Your Standard of Beauty 25:45 Why Marriage Needs a Foundation of Friendship 28:17 The Power (and Grace) of Saving Yourself 30:12 Recreating Paradise in Your Bedroom 35:15 Does God Care About What Happens in the Bedroom? 36:00 Healing from "I Wish I Knew Sooner" Regret 38:22 How God Restores Your Sexual Integrity NEXT STEPS: Ask for prayer or connect with a pastor: https://freshlife.church/contact Register your decision to follow Jesus and receive free resources: https://freshlife.church/know-god Give a financial gift to support what God is doing as we take steps forward to see the Gospel reach far and wide: https://freshlife.church/give SUBSCRIBE: Sign up to receive encouragement straight to your inbox, and to stay up to date with announcements, events, and more: https://church.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=6ea4d82b2567db3e86b7767cd&id=451f2fe63e Don’t miss a video!
