Yes, you read it right, it reads Keep your underwear on! If that is not shocking enough, now imagine your pastor standing up in front of the congregation and preaching a sermon entitled Keep your underwear on. Well I watched Franklin Jentezen tonight preach an incredibly powerful sermon during a youth conference on TV tonight that was entitled just that. As I listened to his message, I thought about something that hit me over the weekend - sexual intercourse is to this generation what French kissing was to my generation during our teenage years.
I sat down to watch TV the other night with my husband at 9:00 (keep in mind my bedtime during the school year is 10:00 so it wasn't like we were watching late night TV and it wasn't even MTV or VH1 we were watching), but a commercial came on that disturbed me deeply. It was a guy and girl in the bar, she turned him down, he went to the bathroom, got a TROJAN condom, came back out, and the 2 of them walked out together. What in the world? It hit me like a ton of bricks just how casual sex has become in our society. It is no different than a simple kiss anymore.
If that isn't enough, have you tried watching TV with your kids recently? How many times have you had them ask what ED is? I have lost count. Once again, my kids go to bed at 8 or 8:30 so why are these commericals on at this time. Do you think we have a society obsessed with sex?
Franklin Jentezen broke it down to the basics. We let all 3 of our kids watch it and it was awesome. I had to explain a few things to the younger two, but I bet they won't forget that message.

She had to explain them to me as well.... But that was after the kids had gone to bed!!!
I heard this sermon too!!!!!! My husband attended the Winterfest that he first preached it at with a youth group he took and bought the DVD's. It is an awesome message that is so relevant to this generation coming up.
I could listen to him preach for hours.
