Episode Details

Well, here we are, another month nearly gone, and another pile of questions from our anonymous Have A Question page begging for answers.  In fact, I got so many in January, it took me nearly all month to write answers for them, and it’s going to take me a little longer to record podcast episodes, but I am working on it.  So, this is just Part 1 of the January responses.



Before we get to those though, I want to mention a few things.











The first is, I’ve changed some things around with respect to our support community.  Until recently, I’d been using Patreon to handle all monthly contributions.  Unfortunately, Patreon has gone and upset a fair number of people.  So, I’ve changed our Support Us page to include a strictly PayPal option – for those who would prefer not to be involved with Patreon.



I’ve also added some more information there regarding the benefits of helping us with our ministry, and our first goal that we’re trying to achieve.  Actually, we’re only $5/month short of our $350/month goal of meeting the monthly bills for the blog.  Yep, it takes about $350/month to keep all this running.  A huge thanks to all our supporters who continue to help pay for those bills.



So, another $5, and we’ll hit our goal, and I’ll commit to at least monthly podcast episodes.











Also, we have a new survey up.  If you haven’t filled it out, please do so here.



Lastly, I’ve got a toll-free number!  I thought it would be neat if people could leave voicemails of questions and I could include them in the podcast.  That way you can listen to some other people’s lovely voices and not just mine all the time.  So, if you have a question and would rather speak it than write it, call 1-833-719-0228.  You can also just leave me a voicemail there too, even if it’s not a question.



If you’re in the US, you can also text that number and I’ll get it.  Doesn’t work outside of the US unfortunately.  Not quite sure why… I can’t even text my own number here in Canada.  I’m hoping they’ll open that up at some point in the future.











Anyways, those are all the announcements.  On to the questions



Question 1: Should single people be reading my blog?




I am a single 19 year old and am committed to saving sex for marriage. I find your posts very informative and am interested in learning more about sex from a christian perspective. My question is, is it wrong be seeking this kind of information when marriage isn’t in the picture just yet? Is it good that I’m wanting to gain a better perspective on sex or should I be waiting to do that a little further down the road?




This is a question that’s coming up more than more.  The truth is, I have quite a few single readers.  There are over 60 on my mailing list who admit to being single.  I suspect more who think if they actually let me know, I’d unsubscribe them or filter what they can see somehow.



I think that certain posts on my blog, like how to do specific sexual activities, or how to keep things in the bedroom interesting, and some other topics are probably unwise for single people to read.
