#108 - Sexual Hedonism & Creating a New Future | William Haines

“My past doesn’t determine my future. My future is still open and depends on how I respond to my present. I can create a different kind of future and a different kind of story.” -William Haines

We learn from our mistakes of the past, in the hopes of not replicating them in the future. In sexuality, understanding our wrong choices and skewed perceptions can help us correct our actions and build a healthier appreciation of something so personal and intimate, and this can guide us in our relationships and eventually marriages. 

High Noon focuses on sexuality, wholeness, fulfillment, and connection. Pornography is one of the things that can greatly affect and corrupt a person's perception of sex, yet with the help of our organization, people like you can manage and eventually be set free from your addiction to live a life that honors God. The people around you have an impact on how you live your life, so it's vital to associate with people who can help and inspire you in creating a better and brighter future for yourself.

In Episode 108, we are joined by William Haines, ‌co-founder of the International Educational Foundation in Russia. He co-authored a series of textbooks for spiritual and moral education in Russia.  He is a member of the Philosophy of Education Society of Great Britain and the Scriptural Reasoning Society, secretary of the British Academy for World Peace, and a member of the Council of Christians and Jews.

William shares with us how the distorted views of sexuality came to be and some factors that influenced the way people talked about sex in the past. He discusses the importance of hearing or reading stories that can shape and influence us in creating our own perspective when it comes to fully understanding these topics.
