		<description><![CDATA[Each day, we have a choice to renew our minds. It is a new day with new beginnings and new chances to heal. Our minds change a little at a time and we find ourselves exercising some form of power in our lives. God’s power helps us as every new day there are new temptations. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sexual desire is cognitive—involving thoughts, wishes, fantasies, or desires—as well as physical—genital arousal. It is also thought to be psychosexual, meaning that all of our senses get involved. Sexual desire is not necessarily the same thing as physiological or genital sexual arousal—though it can be a component. There can be an absence of sexual activity [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[God is the Creator of mankind and made the man and woman to be united in marriage. Some in church history believe that before the Fall, there was no sexual intercourse, but this is untrue. Regarding Adam and Eve, when they consummated their covenant, God was not horrified, because He created our bodies for sex. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is and always will be the issue of forgiveness. We all struggle with regret for past mistakes, and we all live with the memories of what we have done. The first step in moving on is to admit that we are fallible and make mistakes. God forgives us, and we must, therefore, forgive ourselves [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We love grace, but we hate obedience. We run to familiar things rather than to what God calls us to: Christ. Biblical teachings are best utilized through a combination of grace and knowledge. We can all too often try to justify the sins of those we love. We convince ourselves that what they are doing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In Psalm 139, the famous words that each person is “fearfully and wonderfully made” are written. God’s definition of beauty is not the same as the one that we find in pop culture. He does not set us up for failure or disappointment like the media does when it parades the unrealistic images of supposed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite popular belief, the Song of Solomon is not the only book of the Bible that talks about sex.

		<description><![CDATA[Women who often recount their sexual pasts do so with laughter or regret; however, abortion remains the one thing that is too difficult to discuss even years later. Several organizations, such as Planned Parenthood, note that immediately after the abortion it is common for women to experience anger, regret, guilt, sadness, or depression while some [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 7:3–4 that one’s sexual capacity does not exist for himself. Masturbation teaches us to fulfill ourselves, and, as a result, we become impatient when in a relationship with another. A masturbator does not need to think of another when seeking fulfillment. He already knows his body well and knows how [...]]]></description>
