Running the Race Motif
Sexual temptations have always been present, but modern media makes it especially hard to even imagine purity. Running the Race uses the picture of a race to amplify the key steps needed to gain victory:
- Getting into the race
- Getting in shape
- Readying the mind
- Mastering the course
- Deciding to win
- Crossing the line
The goal is not merely short-term resistance, but a wholesome, sexually pure life before God and others.
