ESSAY August 2024 - Editor's Corner - Harvey A., Florida, USA
Manage episode 434098712 series 3349823
I am greatly honored to have been asked to write the foreword to this issue of the ESSAY on lust.
Soon after the death of Roy K. (the founder of Sexaholics Anonymous), I became very concerned that without Roy’s living presence, there would be no consistent voice telling the fellowship that lust is the problem. Therefore in 2009 I wrote a piece for the ESSAY called, “Lust Is the Problem.” I truly wanted the fellowship to remember that Roy’s primary emphasis was on lust. Unlike other fellowships, where the emphasis is on the powerlessness over acting out, Roy’s emphasis was on powerlessness over lusting. The SA version of Step One does not mention sexual behavior at all. But it certainly mentions the word lust.
