"Love, Sex, and Lasting Relationship" series ends

Last Monday, May 19, 2008 our series study on "Love, Sex and Lasting Relationship" (God's prescription for enhancing you Love Life by Chip Ingram) with our facilitator Pastor Arnold Perona ends.

We apologized if we we're not able to post the lessons for the past weeks, to give you a bit of things to learn, here are some of the testimonial from the people who were able to complete the series:

“I learned about real love and infatuation; knowing how to differentiate the two, also the three types of love… Eros, Phi Leo, and Agape. I learned the importance of putting God always as the base of every relationship, because would help it grow stronger. What can I say about it? I guess it's really important not only for those who are married, but especially to those who are single. It’s not only informative but a sure life mindset changer. Let’s face it, almost everyone don’t consider sex as sacred anymore. And I think it would be better if these were discussed in school rather than teaching students plainly sex education having God emphasized on the lesson.”
-Marc Espinosa, CSR from Teleperformance


“Instead of worrying who will be your partner for life, like most people do, why not become the right person first? It is better to please God and pray for that person because a woman’s life is made heaven or hell once she becomes a bride.”
-Claire Gozo, Supervisor from Teleperformance

“I learned of the difference between Hollywood relationship and ideal relationship. It list down how the former works compared to the latter. Bottom line is ideal relationship works well!"
-Niel Sumague, Reports Analyst from Sitel

“Before ang alam ko sa Christian love about the opposite sex is ‘do not be equally yoked’ and ‘effort and sacrifice for the other’ but didn’t realize I was looking at a wrong perspective. My focus was the other person, kung ano maganda sa kanya, when in fact I should be looking at myself, that I should remove the plank in my eyes…If I think of ‘being the right person’ instead of looking at the ‘right person’ there is more chance and time to grow spiritually and strengthen my character. And most important is ‘being the right person’ is focused on God. And yeah people are bound to disappoint us in one way or another, we are bound to be affected, to get hurt but if our focus is on God then we’ll readily understand the other person… Mas maraming chance maging Christ like kung palagi ko iisipin be the right person kesa mag-criticize sa ibang tao...

Tinamaan din ako dun sa ‘put your emotions behind God’s leading’ kasi masyado akong emotional to the point na minsan kina-cloud ng emotions ko yung pagiisip ng matino, na nagiging impulsive lang ako tapos jinu-justify ko pa na nagpapakatotoo lang ako sa emotions ko. I know na although it is right to be true to myself it doesn’t mean that I will always follow what I feel lalo na kung nasa heights ng emotions ko. It all leads to focus on God… What would Jesus do… Every emotions should be controlled by reasons. Kala ko pati yung infatuation based on lust lang or yung sobrang babaw na love pero kahit pala di yun pwede pa ring maging infatuation."
-Olivia Perez, Account Manager from Convergys

“To have a lasting relationship we should have a serious commitment. Sex is a gift from God which should be enjoyed by those who are married. World’s standard of love is more on the physical aspect which usually ends up to failure. It is a good opportunity to have a series like L, S, and LR for us to be reminded to always be on guard especially if there’s a temptation. To pursue purity and long for a relationship that involves God.”
-Mich Lopez, CSR from ICT Group

Those were just some words of the people that had the privilege attending the series. We hope that indeed God will be glorified in our lives as we apply what we have learned. Until next series study!

God bless you all!
