Podcasts about marriage bed

What do you do with a gift you never really learned how to use? We often treat sex like the expensive china we registered for but never use—beautiful in theory, awkward in practice. But sex isn't just skin-deep.   In this episode, Heather and Jamie talked about how our minds—and marriages—need renewing. Jamie shares the invisible legacy of trauma passed down through her family, while Heather opens up about the pressure to “perform” intimacy without ever being taught what godly sexual intimacy actually looks like. Let's renew our minds together!    Show Notes: Book Recommendations: Embodied by Gregg Allison The Great Sex Rescue by Sheila Wray Gregoire How and When to Tell Your Kids about Sex by Stan and Brenna Jones   Want to connect with a pastor?

Questions answered this episode: 1. Hi, Christopher and Wendy, thank you for this podcast and your ministry. It has changed my life. I have a rather delicate question, but I guess I don't know whom else to turn to. I can help you. I've been married for a few years now to my wonderful bride. I have struggled with self-esteem and self-confidence issues since childhood, and that is still the case today. My delicate question concerns the marriage bed and sexual intimacy. In the few years we've been married, my wife has only reached climax 3 or 4 times. This hurts my heart deeply. When I ask what I can do or should do to aid in this, she simply says, I don't know, or it's fine. I don't need the climax. My wife loves me deeply, and the same is true of my love for her, but it bothers me greatly that she won't talk to me about it or that she seems to not care. I feel like less of a man. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. 2. My journey to motherhood has been challenging—seven years of infertility due to PCOS leading to surgery, an unexpected C-section, and last October, an ectopic pregnancy. As I tried to cope with the loss of my baby and feelings of helplessness due to emergency surgery and the loss of a damaged fallopian tube, I felt so embraced by our Mother as this loss coincided with the arrival of Advent, a promise of hope. I almost heard my child say, "Why were you looking for me? Didn't you know I had to be in my Father's house?" I'm truly grateful for the sacraments, as I have personally felt resurrected from this difficult cross through reconciliation and spiritual guidance. Today during Eucharist on the Feast of the Presentation, I felt compelled to actually give my child to God—to present him. Until now, I felt like God had taken him. Though I see the graces the Lord is giving me, even in my suffering, I do continue to struggle with feelings of isolation as I grieve the loss of my baby and my fallopian tube. How can I overcome the tendency to resent other women, and how do I regain the courage to embrace being open to life when, as the Gospel says, a sword has pierced my heart? 3. I'm a 24-year-old man, and I've been discerning a conversion to the Catholic faith for the past two years. I'm currently in the process of getting confirmed, thanks in no small part to your podcast. Thank you for everything you do and the passion with which you do it. Through my journey into Catholicism, one of the most appealing aspects of the Church has been the communion of saints. The friendship of these extraordinary spiritual leaders has been so impactful to me and has been an incredible source of encouragement. As my confirmation approaches and I consider who I'll choose to be my patron, I've realized that almost every saint I've developed a devotion to is a woman. Women like Saint Elizabeth, Mary Magdalene, and Joan of Arc are so insanely powerful, with such varying and glorious expressions of femininity. I find I can't help but be drawn to them. I'm wondering if I have an inordinate attraction to female saints over male saints. Should I get more guy time in my devotions? Is it natural to be drawn to attractive women regardless of centuries-long gaps in time?

Questions answered this episode: 1. I'm a woman in my 40's and I've found it difficult to get in the mood with my husband unless I create fantasies in my head. These fantasies are usually of sexual situations I create that don't involve my husband or in many cases even me. I'll picture two nameless people in an intimate act. Sometimes one party is using another party or the other party is cheating on his wife with a beautiful young woman. Before I was serious about my faith I had looked at porn although it was rare, and my sexual history was not good; multiple parters out of wedlock, using and being used, contraception, and other things. I hate that I have these fantasies because I want the union with my husband to be holy. However, either I create the fantasies to get in the mood or if I push those fantasies away I find sex boring and just another item on my to do list. I don't know what I'm supposed to think about when in the marital embrace. I feel like my mind has been so warped by the culture that it is hard to move forward. Can you help my mind and these fantasies during the marital embrace? What should I be thinking about? 2. I've heard you say that it's important not to stop at the window. Meaning not to let the icons in our lives become idols where we expect from them what only God can be for us. I love the emphasis on finding windows to the divine in our life and how many of these can lead us towards rather than detract us from our relationship with God. How can this be applied on a practical day to day basis? 3. For most of my life I've had a warped view of the natural experience of erections. I've been told that it's meant to be immediately relieved, that it's meant to be pleasurable, but most of all that it's shameful and dirty. As I've gotten deep into my faith and discovered TOB I've wrestled with what new redeemed definition this experience could have. Could it be that this rising of my body could be the desire of my heart and soul to rise to the occasion of loving well and the desire to physically give myself to someone else?

"Be sure that wherever our lot is cast we may and must aim at the perfect life." Written over 400 years ago, Introduction to the Devout Life is still one of the most popular books for those pursuing holiness. St. Francis de Sales explains how to turn that desire for sanctity into resolutions that yield grace-filled results. Themes include: Pursuing a devout life whole-heartedly Incorporating prayer and sacraments into a busy schedule Growing in virtue Battling wisely against temptation Making spiritual progress through daily, monthly, and yearly exercises Whether you are just beginning your spiritual journey or are more advanced in the spiritual life, you'll be able to apply this timeless wisdom immediately. Let St. Francis de Sales illumine the path to holiness and strengthen your desire to walk that road with the Lord. St. Francis de Sales (1567–1622) was the Bishop of Geneva and a renowned spiritual director. Preaching during the Counter-Reformation, he is estimated to have converted 70,000 Calvinists in his lifetime. He was a fervent proponent of the universal call to holiness and spent much of his time guiding lay people on the road to sanctity. Declared a Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius IX in 1877, St. Francis is still helping to form saints through his many writings, of which Introduction to the Devout Life is the most famous. —description from the publisher Introduction to the Devout Life full text: https://watch.formed.org/introduction-to-the-devout-life-by-st-francis-de-sales SUBSCRIBE to Catholic Culture Audiobooks https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/catholic-culture-audiobooks/id1482214268 SIGN UP for Catholic Culture's newsletter http://www.catholicculture.org/newsletter DONATE at http://www.catholicculture.org/donate/audio  Theme music: "2 Part Invention", composed by Mark Christopher Brandt, performed by Thomas Mirus. ©️2019 Heart of the Lion Publishing Co./BMI.

ABOUT EPISODE 18 This episode is all about long term relationships: the real-life joys and sorrows of the give-and-take required to stay together day after day, and year after year. Sticking with anything for 1, 5, or 50 years takes a lot of hard work and focused attention. But, long term commitments also offer us unique opportunities for personal and shared growth as we navigate life with our partners. So, whether you're in a long term partnership or not, we hope that this episode makes you laugh, makes you think, and inspires you to embrace the ongoing work of building lasting, meaningful relationships with those you love!

Refcon 2024: Session 4 // Ed Romero // Selected Scriptures

As Christian, married couples, we need to get our cues on how we think and feel about marriage and sexuality from God and not from the culture or the spirit of our surroundings (movies, social media, etc.) In fact, Hebrews 13:4 instructs us to honor the marriage bed. So, what does that mean and how do we do that in a way that God intended? The Boggs share some tips in today's episode about how we can live a life that does just what this word instructs us to do, practically, day to day.

Sexual intimacy can be really complicated, especially for those who are dealing with the aftermath of sexual sin. In today's episode, Jeff and Rose Colón talk about the biblical principles that will transform the marriage bed from a place of awkwardness, fear, and lust into a place of deep intimacy, trust and purity.   Resources we mentioned: Intended for Pleasure (Book) By Ed Wheat, M.D. Ashes to Beauty (Podcast Series) By Pure Life Ministries

"No indeed, I would not even have people wish for more wit or better judgment, for such desires are frivolous, and take the place of the wish everyone ought to possess of improving what he has.

Rev. Chris Hull, pastor at Zion Lutheran Church in Tomball, TX, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Leviticus 15:1-33. Although the LORD's teaching concerning bodily discharges may strike modern readers as unusual, the LORD's concern is revealed in the structure of the chapter. At the center is the relationship between the husband and the wife. Though the consummation of their relationship is not some special source of holiness, as pagans practiced, still the LORD protects and honors His good gift to husband and wife. The proper place for God's gift of sexuality to husband and wife is in their home, not in His home. In this way, the LORD teaches us to receive holiness as a gift from Him alone and to seek to live in that holiness within our own homes. “The Holiness of God” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through the book of Leviticus. Because God desired to dwell among His sinful people for their blessing rather than their destruction, He gave them the sacrifices and regulations of Leviticus to bestow His holiness upon them. In this way, the book of Leviticus points us to Christ who is our great High Priest who offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice to make us holy before God.

Deuteronomy 22-13-22

Are you allowing others to intrude on your marriage bed? It should only be you and your husband in that sacred space, not you, your husband, and the rest of the world. Avoid turning on the TV in the bedroom and keep your mobile phone out of reach. Instead, prioritize focusing on your husband rather than other distractions.

The earliest Christians are told to keep the marriage bed undefiled and that God will judge the sexually immoral. Why is God so emphatic about sexual sin? In this sermon we look at several passages on sexuality from the Old Testament and the New Testament. In these passages we learn the depth of our sin and the hope of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Sponsored by:Open Door Financial Advisors --  www.opendoorfa.comWhere finances meet faith and family.-----------------------------------------------In this episode, Matt & Jenn discuss the biblical principles that should govern the use of sex toys in the holy marriage bed. The Bible does not specifically address the use of sex toys in the marriage bed. But, even without a specific prohibition, careful consideration and wisdom are indicated.Sex toys can be useful for couples to inject an occasional element of novelty and "spice" into their sexual routines.Couples who suffer from sexual challenges or dysfunctions may use sex toys as an aid to help bring sexual pleasure and connection back into their relationship.However, there is great danger for the relationship if a couple (or individual spouse) is using sex toys as a substitution for intimacy or a short-cut to avoid physical or emotional arousal.Please support these companies that support Intimate Covenant:Married Dance — https://marrieddance.com/?aff=29  Shop from this link and part of your purchase will support Intimate Covenant.  Coconu — http://www.coconu.com  Coupon Code: intimateconvenant for 15% off your purchaseAdventure Challenge — https://www.theadventurechallenge.com Use coupon code: intimatecovenant for 10% off your purchase. To send your comments, questions and suggestions, go to our website: www.intimatecovenant.com/podcast and click on the button: “Contact the Podcast” for an ANONYMOUS submission form.

Similar to our own, the sexualized culture of Corinth had confused Christians about marriage and appropriate sexual conduct. In response, Paul provides clarity on the importance of marriage, and how a couple should be selfless in the marriage bed.

Sex is an AMAZING thing that can bring couples closer together, strengthen their marriage and be incredible for both of spouses if they are implementing good things into their relationship that brings them closer together. On the flip side, we all know there are also things (that if implemented in your sexual intimacy) can quickly tear couples apart and DESTROY their marriage. This may be one of the reasons we get a TON of people messaging us asking our thoughts and opinions regarding what is ok and not ok to do, seeking answers for their relationship. While some of the questions are of course very hard to answer as they are not as simple as just a "YES" or "No" response, there are things that WILL hurt your marriage that are a simple ok or not ok response. As everyone comes from different backgrounds, experiences and beliefs, what is ok and good for some couples may not be right for other couples. As there are a lot of people looking for answers to these difficult subjects, we thought it would be great to share what we do in "our" marriage to determine if something is going to strengthen our relationship, or hurt our relationship (ok or not ok).  For those that are also wondering what is ok and not ok for their marriage we will provide you simple ways that you can determine that for "your" relationship.

This isn't one you'll want to miss! Disclaimer: Though our discussion is tasteful and careful, this episode best suited for adult ears.
