hit a low point a few years ago,” Shawn Mendes admits, his brow furrowing beneath his shaggy curls.

The sun is setting over a Santa Monica, Calif., apartment complex, and Mendes is leaning forward from his seat as he explains a recent major life change: his embrace of spirituality. It started with meditation to bring a little balance to his chaotic life of pop stardom. That turned into reading religious texts, which turned into a deep dive on the Bhakti movement in Hinduism. For nearly a year, Mendes has spent every Thursday meditating and discussing scriptures like the Bhagavad Gita with Jay Shetty, the author of Think Like a Monk.

“I think everybody has a moment where they just decide it’s time to kind of do something different,” says Mendes matter-of-factly. Now spirituality is “a part of my life that is much bigger than I actually even let on.”

Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God spoke to his members about the danger of masturbation and how one can be free from it. According to NDEPO TV, he said he once heard a preacher say masturbation is not a sin because it is not committed in the body but outside the body. He said he was shocked because this is a clear deviation from the truth of God's word. Indeed, the word masturbation is not in the Bible but it clearly states that lust is a sin. According to him, Masturbation violates God's standard of sexuality and promotes iniquity. Sin is sin, no matter how the world paints it.
