ccef

there is an excellent counseling organization called ccef in glenside pa.  each fall they have a weekend conference.  two years ago i attended the conference with the topic of fear and it was so encouraging.  this year the topic was sex - 'sex matters.'  the presenters approached the personal subject with careful sensitivity, but without shying away from addressing the hard-to-leave lies and hard-to-take truths that we encounter in both our surrounding culture and churches, as well as the hope and restoring beauty offered to us through Jesus as described in the bible.  i can't properly sum up what i've heard - if that were easy, then there wouldn't be a need for the conference or books or continued discussion.  the conference was recorded and should soon be available for purchase online along with other great resources through the ccef website.
