Sex in the UK Pulpits

Dr. Alex Appiah of Living Springs Ministries has taken up the American custom of preaching on sex and has made his way into the media for doing so: Express.co.uk - Home of the Daily and Sunday Express | UK News :: Sermon to spice up your sex life. He isn't the only one. A UK Church of England clergyman, Reverend Robert Hampson, the vicar at Holy Trinity Church in South Woodford, has also addressed sex from the pulpit. His sermon wasn't about "better sex" but addressed to children, namely a group of Brownies, amongst others, to remain chaste until marriage. People have gone off the deep end and diocesan officials have received formal complaints.
