Why do we have sexual desire? What is it for? What should we do with it? Suppress it? Indulge in it? Or is there another way? We discuss God’s plan for sexual desire, and how we can direct it in a way that helps us find true love and happiness.

What if our child tells us that he or she is “gay” or “lesbian”? How should we respond? Amidst the turmoil of emotions many of us might feel, Mr Nicholas Gabriel Lim shares with us some useful tips to help us respond.
