Link to Saints Unscripted video about pornography (HIGHLY RECOMMEND): • Overcoming Pornography...
In this week's video, I get real about the Law of Chastity! The Law of Chastity is a commandment in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (aka the Mormon Church) that commands members to stay sexually pure. To be honest, this was a little awkward to talk about, but I felt really strongly that as a young adult, it was important that I enter the conversation and make talking about these things more NORMAL. I want this to be a safe place where you can ask questions and receive clarification on things you may be confused about. I strongly believe that chastity is not just waiting to have sex until marriage - it's a lifestyle! I talk about that more in-depth in this video along with topics like pornography, making out, and how to communicate your standards while dating.
What advice do you have for staying sexually pure as a Latter-day Saint? Let me know in the comments below!

    I always told my sons, "sex is sacred.... Womanhood and Motherhood is sacred. It is our duty to show respect for womanhood. You will see porn at one point. have the strength to look away and don't look back.'

    I've come back to this because of a very bad, decades long habit. It actually guilt trips me and definitely makes it extremely difficult to feel temple or even barely church worthy. It'd be very humiliating to confess to my branch president what I've hidden like a coward, living a double life, and that has messed with my confidence in the church. Please pray for me folks 🙏 😞

    Lol @ the moving Diet Coke can in the background 😅 you did a great job addressing chastity and hope you do more topics that are at times uncomfortable to talk about...it’s refreshing having another sister like you to chat about these things because it feels like it’s coming from a friend 🤗 btw would you ever consider cutting your hair? From the way the video is filmed your hair looks shorter and that length would look great I think!

That seriously means the world to me 🥰 and I have definitely thought about cutting my hair (especially on days where it’s particularly hard to work with haha), so that’s great to know you think it would look good at that length!! You are too sweet - thank you!

    I am mormon and I know that the law of chastidy only includes no sex before marriage and no poronography. The other things you have mentioned like not having passionate kisses or not touching other holy body parts are just recommendations.

    Make sure you know Jesus Christ before considering his commandments Jesus Christ is God and God is good This gives the law of chastity value and worth, not sexual purity, but Love for Christ

    O.K., I think there is much wisdom to the law of chastity. In Buddhism one of our five precepts is to refrain from using sexual (and sensual) energies unwisely. I wish I had known about this when I was a teenager. My problem with the LDS community is that gay marriage is imperative for gay men and lesbian women (and others in the GLBTQIA+ community) and it is beyond immoral to say "we love you but you can't get married and never can have sex" - this is truly wrong. I am a gay widower. I started having sex when I was 12 in a relationship that lasted for four years (until he passed away of leukemia). I had been sexually abused/molested/raped at 4 years of age to 7 years of age - so I was sexualized at too young of an age. I bring this up because people judge too much, you never know what another human being has been through). Now that I am Buddhist my views are very similar to the LDS position, with the exception of discrimination against gay people.

    Yes, that’s what I’m saying in this video! :) I believe that the Law of Chastity is from God and it says: “We are to have sexual relations only with our spouse to whom we are legally married.” This means that we are not to provoke sexual feelings (masturbating) in ourselves. We believe that these things are sacred and should only be shared with our spouse.

I hope you can pray about this and ask God to guide you to a better understanding about Him and what He actually cares about.
