" When I was a minister in Manchester a group of men came to me on one occasion and the gist of what they said was this: 'Has the Church nothing to say about sex? To master it is the problem of every one of us at some time or another. For most of us it is a life-long battle needing constant vigilance and marked by constant failure. Novels, cinema films, plays of a certain kind, not to speak of the "smutty yarns" that go round the places where we work, fling sex at us. Yet the Church, which for its aim helping people to face life with some chance of personal victory, is all but silent about it. Here is without doubt our greatest moral problems whether we are married or not. Yet you give us no help.' To me this was a challenge which I tried to take up at once."
