I want to talk today about a little bit of a dichotomy that a lot of people experience in their journey towards sexual integrity.

If you've listened to this podcast for any length of time, or been involved in our coaching, groups, or events, I hope that you've picked up on the reality that we seek to bring the love and grace of God into all things.

We believe that real life change happens through the kindness of God.

It is the kindness of God that leads to repentance. Where sin increases, Paul writes in Romans, Grace increases all the more. We really are transformed by God's movement in our lives.

The more we can do to open ourselves to the kindness, the goodness, the love, the gift that God is, the gifts that God offers, the better off we'll be. And in general, Legalism, being hard on ourselves beating ourselves up, doesn't work, it actually can be counterproductive towards growing in virtue and growing in sexual integrity. And so you won't experience that here.

I think there's often a mistake that people make along the way, in believing that somehow temptation is just going to evaporate, that they're just going to one day just stop sinning.

Now, I do believe that can happen. And I do believe it can happen over time.

That's beautiful, wonderful, I think it's going to happen for you as you continue to go.

But the journey to get there does include times of having to fight sexual temptation. It does include times where you will have a desire to act out sexually, a desire to go back to that same old well, and you will have to resist, you will have to work hard not to do it.

You will have to say NO to that temptation, I'm not going down this route, in Jesus name!

Tune in as we talk about ways to fight, without being hard on yourself or legalistic. Ways that aren’t a sexual integrity bootcamp.
