What does it mean to lust? When I feel the physical urge to masturbate, is that lust? Is lust a desire? If I desire sex, is that lust? And what about those who feel strong desires for sex—maybe even feel sexually aroused at times—but have no meaningful way of fulfilling it? What are they supposed to do with their drive?
In this post, we’re looking at whether or not it’s wrong for someone who isn’t married to feel sexually aroused. Does it mean they are lusting if they do? And what is a person who feels sexually aroused supposed to do if they have no legitimate and meaningful way of fulfilling it?
Author Asher Witmer knows what it’s like to want freedom from sexual sin only to continually fail. We’re often told we need more personal discipline, that we need to think godly things instead of fleshly things.
What if I told you that discipline won’t solve your problem with lust?
Our male sexuality is given by God for advancing beauty and goodness. But somewhere along the line it becomes something that causes devastation and guilt. The good news is we don’t have to live with guilt. In Live Free, Asher Witmer shows us how we can find freedom from sexual sin, live with nothing to hide, and be able to fight for others.
