From Lustful Gaze to Awe and Reverence

Do you ever feel like lust and pornography are taking over your life, and you can't break free from their grasp?

What if I told you that lust isn't the real issue at hand, but rather our inability to truly see the world and the people around us?

In this eye-opening episode, I share a powerful story from the memoir "The Glass Castle" that illustrates this concept and how it's not lust that we need to overcome, but our clouded vision.

Join me as I discuss how God doesn't want us to simply look away from temptation, but rather to open our eyes and truly see the person in front of us, beholding them with awe and reverence.

This transformation of our vision can lead us to a place where we no longer want to degrade others by treating them like sex objects. Our ultimate goal should be to honor one another and elevate our consciousness to recognize the reality of God's beauty in each other.

So, let's embark on this journey together to gain clarity and rediscover the real world through our newly opened eyes.

Ready? Let's dive in!
