Episode description
Where’s the line between appreciating someone’s beauty and falling into lust? Dr. Sri breaks open St. John Paul II’s wisdom from Love and Responsibility to help us understand the inner movements of attraction, temptation, and purity. With clarity and compassion, he explains the three stages that lead from innocent attraction into lust—and how resisting temptation, even imperfectly, is already a victory of grace.
