Every man has struggled with the vice of lust. Most men believe it is sheer willpower that will bring them to chastity and that if they are continuing to fail then they must not be trying hard enough. This loop can be broken, and it is not by willpower alone.

Today we give you a 5 step plan to help you defeat the sin of lust. We explore how sexual attraction is good and how repression can make the problem worse. We also discuss the importance of having a plan of attack and how you cannot do this alone.
