An important statement regarding “Sex Has a Price Tag”

By: Steve Huston

Mr. Johnson,
Awhile back, you received a note from a woman concerned about Pam Stenzel’s video, Sex Has a Price Tag. She was voicing her concern with the way the young ladies on the front row of the audience were dressed. She felt they were dressed a little inappropriate. I have to disagree with her. My family and I (husband, me and 2 teenage boys) watched the video this past Friday. The young ladies are in shorter skirts but they are part of the school uniform and the girls are very modest about the way they sit and present themselves. I don’t believe they are a distraction to people viewing the tape. I wanted to share this with you because I don’t want Pam Stenzel to be discredited in any way. It’s a great video that all parents should watch with their teens and have discussion afterwards. I hope you are doing well. As always, thank you for taking a stand for decency in this great country of ours.
D.W.

Response.
Yes. I come down on the same side as D.W. above. Pam Stenzel served in a crisis pregnancy center for nine years of her life. She has seen it all. I praise God for her bold, frank message talking into the hearts and lives of broken, shattered people. She is genuine. Her love for youth is very real. Her love for God and His holiness comes through loud and clear.
Sidebar: Do I think that the short skirt issue is one that should have been avoided? Of course.

Here are some of Pam Stenzel’s comments as she opens her message. I came here today so that none of you will be able to leave this auditorium and ever again be able to say to a physician, to a counselor, to a future husband or wife “nobody ever told me. I didn’t know.”

If you’ve had sex outside of a permanent marriage relationship, you will pay. There is a cost. No one has ever had sex outside of the context or marriage without paying a price. The question you have to ask tonight though, is this: “What
is the cost and is it worth it?”

I speak and travel all over the US and internationally to ¼ million teenagers every year and have learned a tremendous amount,
Before I began speaking full time, I spent nine years working at a Pregnancy Counseling Center.

I began to ask the girls in my office, what could we have said before you made your choice that might of helped you make a better choice? After nine years I realized that there were a lot of teenagers out there who were making choices about sex and had absolutely no idea about what the consequences were. I want you to understand that I don’t come here today to make a choice for you and I don’t intend to. I can’t go on all your dates. I don’t have time. I can’t choose for you.

As much as we would like to, we can’t put you in a box until you are 24. All we can do is love you and tell the truth, and hope you make the right choices.

My goal today is that none of you here will ever again be able to say to a physician, pregnancy counselor, future husband or wife, “Nobody told me.” What you choose to do after today is up to you.

God created sex. It’s awesome. It’s not a terrible thing we can’t talk about in a Catholic school. God created sex.

God wants you to have great sex. It was his idea, not yours. But God created sex with boundaries. It’s awesome when it is within boundaries. But when it happens outside of boundaries, it’s horribly, horribly destructive.

Pam asks the teenagers: “What’s the context or boundary God created with sex?” They answer: “Marriage.”
Pam says: “That’s the right answer, but most of you don’t believe this.

God did not create sex for love. He created sex for one context only, marriage for a lifetime.

I love the law of God. I delight in the law of God:

1. It protects – no one gets hurts who follows His laws
2. It’s simple, not complicated. Everyone can understand it.
It is not hard. Either you are married or you are not married. ….
