Is masturbation right or wrong? There’s a healthy pause that comes with answering this question because it’s quite layered and there isn’t scripture that provides a firm answer. Yet, we know that all things are permissible, but not all things are beneficial.
In this conversation we’ll take a bigger picture view at the issues involved. Touching yourself or doing something in private that you want to keep secret is riddled with shame and not helpful to your marriage connection. On the contrary, the idea of believing your body is good as you desire body awareness and self cultivation for the sake of sharing it with your husband can be beneficial and promote healthy connection.
Listen in and bring this conversation to the Lord and your own marriage.
