Spirituality and Sexuality? How Singles Can Honor Both - with Dr. Dean Busby [29]
For single members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and other religions, there can be some confusion about how to save sex for marriage and live your religious beliefs while also experiencing the sexual feelings that God gave you. Dr. Dean Busby, a professor at Brigham Young University, shares thoughts on navigating this challenge. You can hold boundaries without punishing yourself for being a sexual being. You can have a healthy sexual vision, accept that part of yourself, and still abstain before marriage. Seeing sexuality as a sacred part of yourself honors both spirituality and sexuality.
