Rethinking Porn Addiction - A Sexual Health Show

Now that we know the 6 Principles of Sexual Health, it's time to create our own Sexual Health Plan. Just like physical fitness, if we want to get healthy, it helps to develop a plan. The plan helps us move towards our goals, avoid damaging behaviors, and develop healthy habits. The plan typically involves some sort of support system. And our ability to succeed in following the plan means we need to have clarity around our values so that our plan is in alignment with them.

So we're having it here. Today we're talking about using the 6 Principles for Sexual Health as a framework for your sexual ethics.

There's a motif in Christianity of "bearing your cross."

In Christianity, Jesus represents the ultimate human ideal.

And despite being perfect, he's betrayed, tortured, and killed for crimes he did not commit.

In the midst of all this, he takes upon himself the suffering, sins, and weaknesses of humanity.

He voluntarily bears his cross by willingly taking on suffering and ultimately transcending suffering.

The reason the story of Christianity has endured for thousands of years is not that Jesus suffered and died... but that he overcame suffering and death. I

n so doing, His story continues to inspire countless people to find meaning and purpose in their own suffering. T

oday, we're going to talk about finding meaning in a porn crisis.

Can it be painful? Yes.

Can it leave you feeling hopeless? Absolutely.

But can it also be the source of deep and profound meaning, purpose, and self-discovery.
