God may have rested on the seventh day, but the Rev. Ed Young wants married couples to have sex all week long.

 

Fellowship Church pastor Rev. Ed Young preaches a sermon dealing with sex while sitting on a bed at the Grapevine church. Rev. Young is issuing a challenge this Sunday for married couples to have sex on seven straight days.

Beginning this Sunday.

 

The call to action will headline his sermon that day at Grapevine-based Fellowship Church. He plans to deliver his challenge while sitting on a bed.

 

"I won't be dressed in pajamas," the pastor says.

 

In these days of financial crisis, rampant divorce and debates over same-sex marriage, it's time, he says, to turn the "whining" into "whoopee."

 

More fundamentally, he adds, the embracing of sex is about nurturing and strengthening marriages.

 

"Sex is like Super Glue. It's a spiritual thing, an emotional thing," he says.

 

And the marriage thing, he believes, should only involve a man and woman. God's way, he says.

 

Jim Dale of Coppell said he figures the pastor is trying to create more buzz for his five-church mega-ministry.

 

"Draw 'em in, no matter what or how," wrote the Coppell resident in a posting on dallasnews.com. "Sex? You betcha. That'll pack the pews (or theater seats)."

 

Mr. Dale, author of a book about individual relationships with God, said he has attended Fellowship Church a few times. And he offered some praise: "I've got to hand it to them, they are brilliant marketers."

A church down here did something similar recently. The pastor had all of the married couples have sex everyday for a month and all the single people abstain for a month.

Now if I could just get some kind soul to email this story to Downtown. She'd kill me if I emailed it.
