About the Program:
Panelists Bill Countryman and David Biale address the always controversial questions of human sexuality and why many are divided and confused about how to apply the tenets of scripture to today's sex culture. Does the Bible liberate or repress sexual desire? Panelists trace the evolving position on sexuality, from the Hebrew scriptures and New Testament up through American attitudes today.
