Healing for My Soul

Ep 93: Celibacy vs. Abstinence


Listen Later

In this honest and eye-opening episode, Ariel sits down with guests to unpack the often-confused concepts of abstinence and celibacy, especially within the body of Christ. Together, they explore how these choices are shaped by pain, pride, purpose, and personal healing.


The conversation dives into:


  • The difference between celibacy (spiritual commitment) and abstinence (intentional choice)
  • How past hurt, emotional trauma, and distorted self-worth influence sexual decisions
  • The mental and emotional challenges of abstaining from sex
  • The temptation of self-pleasure and how it impacts true abstinence
  • How knowing your bloodline helps you understand what you attract
  • The importance of healing before entering relationships
  • Why abstinence must be rooted in purpose—not pain or pride


This episode is a powerful reminder that healing starts with self-awareness, and that abstinence is not just about withholding sex—it’s about protecting your value, honoring your journey, and preparing for divine alignment.
