2 How you see your sexuality? To reflect on what sex means for us as human beings To consider ways in which we are “signs of God” To evaluate if sex for pleasure is destructive or not

3 Since you are made in the image of God, having sex should be -A Free choice -A reasoned decision -A good and loving act -An expression of self-awareness Giving your self away is the most valuable thing that you could ever give. Animals can’t do this – they don’t know that they are worth anything. For them, sex doesn’t matter. It is not the free gift of a person. I don’t really value myself. Sex doesn’t mean anything I don’t really care about myself I just want some temporary fun. I don’t really care about the other person. I want to be able to give myself completely to someone I want it to mean a lot when it happens I would not just let myself be used I believe that giving myself is the best I can give, so I would wait for the best person. 1. How is being made in the image of God, make a difference to how we use our bodies for sex? 2. Draw a scale like the one below 1-10 Where on the scale are you? Circle it. 3. What does using your sexuality mean to you? Explain where you put yourself on the scale and why. 4. Why are you not higher or lower on the scale than this? (so if you said you were a 3, why did you not put yourself down as a 1, or as a 10?) ** Why does having a good opinion of yourself make a difference to whether or not you use your body for sex?
