What if you could watch footage of yourself just as you’re caught in a moment of temptation?

No one else knows what’s about to happen, but you: Your finger might be lingering above the “play” button. You might be walking down the specific hallway where you might see her. You might be standing in front of your bedroom door.

Hitting pause at that moment would hold a lot of meaning for you in battling your unwanted sexual behavior. And the pattern is deep, the temptation is painfully intense and you can barely catch your breath.

Stretch out your hands, take a deep breath and let’s hit pause together. In today’s episode of “Becoming Whole,” we offer you 3 Steps to Navigating Temptation

We hope these three simple steps can become part of your new routine so you can begin pursuing your truest desires.

Highlights:

1.              Admit to yourself that you’re tempted. Even when the temptation is a small nudge, admit to yourself then that you’re tempted. 

2.              Reach out to an ally and admit temptation. Text your ally (someone who knows your struggle), get on the phone and then connect with them.

3.              Figure out what you’re really looking for. 

Self-Mastery takes time. Give yourself grace.

Sex is never just about sex. It is deeply embedded in our identity as both male and female.

Sex is always meant to be unitive, highly relational. 

What is it that you’re really looking for in the areas of intimacy and identity?

There are patterns to when you are tempted. And, there’s a “why” behind your temptation.

If you have been impacted by Regen or Becoming Whole, would you consider giving? You can do that here.
