Welcome back y'all, it's the last installment of the Keep It in Your Pants Series.  As you may remember, in Part 2 of this reaction, we discussed the guilt and shame that can come from stumbling in the area of sexual temptation. We reminded ourselves that it's important to pick up and move forward. But what if your prospective partner wants to hold your past against you? Falon ran into this and had a great response. You'll learn how and why we can escape condemnation and how to value yourself despite past mistakes. Let's check it out. --------- Image from Pexels Photo by Andrea Piacquadio   Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): Intro Music Into the Sunshine by Tatami https://uppbeat.io/t/tatami/into-the-sunshine License code: ZO9CUCK350BJLUGD   Outro Music Tropic of Life by Infraction https://uppbeat.io/t/hartzmann/sunny License code: M4NAY52QVGYMTKGE
