Episode notes
Lust Spectrum
- Men tend to perceive lust as a spectrum, ranging from noticing a woman to fantasizing.
- This spectrum thinking can conflate attraction with lust, leading to unnecessary guilt.
Attraction vs. Lust
- Attraction is a biological response, while lust involves conscious, deliberate choices.
- Feeling attraction isn't sinful, but dwelling on it and letting it control your thoughts is.
Reframing Lust
- Shift your perspective on lust from an attack on your purity to an attack on a woman's dignity.
- Ask yourself if you're looking at a woman respectfully, considering her as a person made in God's image.
