In this episode, Andrew Ray and Barbara Lane talk with Mike Emlet and Winston Smith about masturbation and a lack of guilt. The discussion was prompted by a listener’s question: “Why don’t I feel guilty when I commit sins that I know are wrong? My particular sin is masturbation. I’m preparing for the ministry, and that’s something that I absolutely want to stop. I’ve talked it over with some friends, but I’m still amazed at my lack of guilt.”
