Does a man *NEED* s*x in a marriage?

Summary

This sermon challenges the cultural narrative that men inherently need sex for survival, contrasting it with the reality of celibate vocations and the biblical emphasis on self-control. Referencing 1 Corinthians 7, it clarifies that while sex is a gift for bringing life, it is not a basic physical necessity like food or air, and its responsible practice within marriage is for mutual spiritual and practical reasons. The key takeaway is that true masculinity can be defined by self-control and that marital intimacy, while not a survival imperative, is a mutual conjugal right intended to prevent immorality.
