I reflected earlier this month on stillness during this Advent season, which often is a season full of parties, events, concerts and consumerism that induces frenzied activity. In this final week of Advent, I return to the question: What does it mean to stop and rest and truly be in Christ’s presence?

What would happen if we all encouraged, supported and helped one another (particularly men) to evaluate our behaviors — especially in the realm of sexuality? What if we were accountable to one another to act in appropriate and God-honoring ways?
