Walk Don’t Run When Sexually Aroused
Episode description
To start I want to let you know this podcast will be a little different. One that I hope will be helpful for you.
I am going to talk about the difference between arousal and desire.
The reason that’s so important for us to recognize is that when we feel arousal towards something that we know we don’t want, it can produce an amount of shame for us.
If you’re pursuing sexual integrity, if you’re trying to walk away from unwanted sexual behaviors, the fact that those behaviors are unwanted means you desire something more for yourself, your family and for your life than the sexual sin that’s entangled you.
Today is not going to be very prescriptive in the sense of offering you three steps to this or that. But I'd like to share with you what happened to me recently and how I dealt with it in the hopes that it will be useful for you and help you see things that you might want to do differently.

- The difference between arousal and desire.
