3 Tips on Overcoming Lust

Lust is a powerful enemy in the lives of men all over the world. (Yes, it affects women as well, but I am primarily speaking to men in this article.) Although collectively as Christians we know lust is wrong, the immorality of lust is still prevalent throughout the church. In over 30 years of counseling sex addicts and witnessing first-hand the amazing miracles and healing God can do, I have identified some common lust habits as well as proven tools to overcome them. God desires for all men to live a clean life and be free from lust once and for all. In this article, I will outline three proven tips to help you as a man overcome lust and fulfill your God-given potential.

When Men are Kings

For many years men have struggled with their role within the church. They may be successful at home, in business and socially but when they walk through the doors of the church many often feel unsure of their place. Many feel that if they didn’t attend Bible school, they can’t become a valuable instrument in their church. For a long time, men have been sold a lie in the church that they are laity not royalty.

Q&A-Sex in Marriage

Q&A - Destroying the Seed of Lust

Intimacy Anorexia Patterns #1

Let’s go back to the definition of intimacy anorexia—the active withholding of emotional, spiritual, and sexual intimacy. If things are going along really well and the intimacy anorexic is feeling close to you and feeling like an intimate, emotional, spiritual, or sexual encounter is about to occur (e.g., the children are with grandma and there’s anticipation of real connection or a sexual rendezvous) this could ignite intimacy anorexic withholding behavior or several behaviors. This withholding or pushing away is intentional to cause pain for the spouse, so they won’t want intimacy or even ask to be close to the intimacy anorexic.

Step Two for Sex Addiction - "Greater Than Ourselves"

Step Two: "Came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity."

Sex after Recovery

If sex addiction, infidelity, or intimacy anorexia have ever been present in your marriage, you and your spouse's sexuality can be impacted both significantly and uniquely. Our sexuality is a beautiful, strong part of who we are. Regardless of where we started or what has happened along the way, we can grow and heal and become very healthy sexually.

Clean Class- Day Two
Dr. Weiss talks about what it means to be a protector and the role of men to protect women. Staying clean from sex addiction. Marriage was God's final creation. When you are married, you are God's son in law. How do you think God would grade you as his son in law? What we love we protect, and what we protect we love. If you are protecting a sexual secret, then you are loving the behavior or the pornography and hurting the people you love.
