16:58 - Are you living in sin if you don’t have sex as an older married couple?

19:44 - Why do people elevate sexual desires above all else? What desires should we have?

23:20 - Would you officiate a LGBTQIA+ wedding?

37:13 - Are people who identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community and saved Christians still a child of God?
