Steps To Overcoming the "M" Word: The Mark E. Peterson Pamphlet Debunked w/Cultch

With General Conference weekend coming up, it's important to remind ourselves of the kind of advice and counsel the LDS leadership gives us.

Buckle your seatbelts as Mormonish's Rebecca and Landon are joined by Culch to delve into the history of masturbation warning messages from the church through the decades.

Our focus will be on the Mark E. Peterson pamphlet, "Steps to Overcoming Masturbation," as we take you through the wild ride that represents most of our growing up years.

And of course we couldn't cover this topic without a shout out to Elder Boyd K. Packer's "The Little Factory" talk as well.

Hopefully no one will be too triggered.. We were pretty triggered just taping the episode, haha..
