Men are born men, with strong sexual urges and desires, and living in the world we're in today, its REALLY hard to ignore those urges, however as Christians, were called to. We know were supposed to save sex until marriage, not lust, be respectful towards women, respect their bodies, and our own, and live our lives free of sexual immorality. It sounds easy, but we all (guys and girls) know its not. How then?
Today, some of my brothers and I made a pact, and were calling it a challenge I guess. Through some conversation with the Champion himself (Jordan Sasser) and the thought of a previous conversation behind us, some male friends and I are on a quest towards complete sexual purity. We've picked up a book called "Every Man's Battle", a book about how to, as Christian Men, navigate our way through lust, immoral sexual desires, relationships, and through the rough waters of the media around us. We will be reading this book, looking for ways to help grow closer to God and how to live completely pure of Sexual desires and lustful thoughts and actions. Though we know we cannot avoid the temptation and the desires for sex, we are studying to completely ignore those nagging feelings and urges, and to live a life sin free and for God. If theres any guys out there who are wanting to take the Challenge with us, let us know.
PLEASE PRAY. this is going to be an increasingly hard topic to learn about, and we could all use prayer as we look to lead lives free of all sexual desires, and look to live a life with God in mind.
Thanks, Matt
