04 Marriage & Intimacy
Intimacy is not a product of modern culture – it is God’s good creation, made sacred within the covenant of marriage between a man and a woman. We are called to recover God’s design, run from sexual sin, and honour Him with our bodies rather than allowing the surrounding culture to set the terms. Jonathan Stanfield looks at the way intimacy reflects the covenant love of Christ and His church, why sexual immorality brings deep personal and relational consequences, and how wise boundaries and accountability can protect what God has made good.
Jonathan serves on leadership within Four12 (F12) and is the lead elder of Living Hope, on the Isle of Man. Jonathan is married to Annette, is a dad to four daughters and is a proud grandad. He is passionate about church planting and seeing churches restored to health.
