Stephanie welcomes Elizabeth Urbanowitz to discuss how we can equip our children with a biblical understanding of sexuality and gender. Discover the tools you need to disciple your child with purpose and grace! Helping Your Kids Know God's Good Design is a thoughtful, timely, and practical resource that will coach you through some of the most foundational conversations you can have with your children. It's more crucial than ever to talk with our children about God's design for sexuality and gender. As our culture's understanding of human identity shifts, Christian parents, grandparents, and mentors are called to be the primary voices shaping the next generation's worldview on these sensitive topics. Ten years ago, few would have imagined discussing sexuality or gender identity with young children. However, today's culture often defines people by their desires and feelings, leading to confusion over what it means to be human. The Christian response is to provide clarity rooted in God's Word—especially around key biblical themes such as being made in God's image (Psalm 139) and understanding redemption through Christ. Elizabeth Urbanowitz emphasizes starting conversations on sexuality and gender with children as young as four or five years old. The earlier parents introduce these topics, the more their children see them as trustworthy “experts” (she calls this the “Founder's Effect”). Just as a child memorizes basic math facts before tackling algebra, simple biblical truths learned early become anchors for discerning truth from cultural messages later in life. Children encounter issues like sexual abuse, pornography, and gender confusion younger than ever. Even adults without children are likely to influence young people as teachers, mentors, or relatives. It's essential to have clear, simple language to explain: Bodies are valuable and designed by God. Private parts deserve protection and privacy. If children disclose uncomfortable experiences, adults should listen, seek understanding, and reinforce these truths with compassion. Elizabeth draws everything back to scripture. The Bible presents God as our Designer, and His design (for our bodies, marriage, sexuality) is the wise and loving blueprint for human flourishing. When addressing hard questions—like same-sex marriage, gender identity, or masturbation—parents are encouraged to reference what God has revealed, not just their opinions. To help children remember key truths, parents can teach simple catechism-like phrases. For example, “Marriage is one man and one woman becoming one flesh for life,” or “God designed us as male or female—God's design is good.” These become invaluable tools when children are confronted with cultural lies. A major point is that kindness doesn't mean agreement. Being compassionate means loving others and telling the truth (not just making them feel good). Children should be taught to respect and care for everyone, including those living differently, without affirming what's unbiblical. For parents of older children or teens, start with prayer, then listen to what they've already learned. Acknowledge any shortcomings, gently offer biblical truths, and focus on building a trusting, ongoing dialogue. God's Word is sufficient for every generation. Parents, family members, and the faith community play vital roles in helping kids navigate a confusing world. Start early, speak simply, root everything in scripture, and model truth with kindness and courage. Take time this week to consider what “building a biblical foundation” practically looks like for the children in your life. What is one conversation you can start, or one phrase you can teach, to prepare them for these challenging but crucial topics? MORE ABOUT “HELPING YOUR KIDS KNOW GOD'S GOOD DESIGN” Discipling Your Child One Conversation at a Time In today's pervasively secular culture, it's more essential than ever to guide your children toward a biblical worldview on all issues―including the complex topics of sexuality and gender. But as a parent, how do you have these discussions in an informed, age-appropriate, and Christ-centered way?  This how-to handbook equips you to talk about sex, gender, and the Bible with children between the ages of 4 and 12 with confidence and nuance. Inside you'll find biblically grounded answers to some of Christian parents' most common questions, including When should I first have the sex talk with my child? How do I explain sexual sin to my child? How do I teach my child to love others without affirming another person's sin? How do I talk with my child about what the Bible teaches about same-sex relationships? How do I handle the fear that I'll have these conversations the wrong way? Discover the tools you need to disciple your child with purpose and grace! Helping Your Kids Know God's Good Design is a thoughtful, timely, and practical resource that will coach you through some of the most foundational conversations you can have with your children. MORE ABOUT ELIZABETH URBANOWITZ Elizabeth Urbanowicz is a follower of Jesus Christ who is passionate about equipping kids to understand the truth of the Christian worldview. She holds a B.S. from Gordon College in Elementary Education and Spanish, an M.S.Ed. from Northern Illinois University in Literacy Education, and an M.A. in Christian Apologetics from Biola University. Elizabeth began her professional career as an elementary teacher in a Christian school. Several years into her teaching experience, Elizabeth realized that despite being raised in Christian homes, attending a Christian school, and being active in church, her students thought more like the culture than like Christ. Elizabeth began searching for curricular materials that would equip her students to think critically, helping them discover that Christianity is the worldview that lines up with reality. After not finding any materials that met this need, she began creating a curriculum for her students. Elizabeth first taught Foundation Comparative Worldview Curriculum as an after-school class for third through fifth graders, and the results were incredible! Students were transformed from passive recipients of information to active evaluators of every message they receive. Parents and teachers alike noticed the impact these materials had on students' media consumption, academic achievement, and everyday habits. This transformation lasted beyond the elementary years and guided students' thinking in junior high and beyond. Elizabeth now works full-time on developing comparative worldview and apologetics resources for children. Her goal is to prepare the next generation to be lifelong critical thinkers and, most importantly, lifelong disciples of Jesus Christ. https://foundationworldview.com/about/meet-the-founder  We invite you to check out the first episode of each of our series, and decide which one you will want to start with.

I'm guessing you and all your kids are familiar with Taylor Swift, and most likely you know about her music. In recent days, she's received lots of publicity for her new album, The Life of a Showgirl.

Because kids are listening and singing along, we need to teach our kids to think critically and Christianly about all music and media, and this particular song is a perfect place to start. Stick with us we chat with a couple of youth workers about the song, their students, and how they will be addressing it, on this episode of Youth Culture Matters.

Unlocked Patreon episode. Support Ordinary Unhappiness on Patreon to get access to all the exclusive episodes. patreon.com/OrdinaryUnhappinessAbby, Patrick, and Dan discuss and apply Julia Kristeva's concept of abjection. It's an influential and powerful idea in its own right, but it also generates clarifying insights into our present cultural and political moment. To get there, the three first do some necessary ground-clearing on reading Kristeva's notoriously complex style, the broader status of language in French poststructuralist thought, and the etymology and connotations of “abjection” and the “abject” themselves. As they discuss, abjection does more than describe an object or a state of being – it also describes a set of experiences, a fundamentally embodied suite of affects, and, above all, an ongoing set of processes that simultaneously consolidate and threaten our most taken-for-granted ideas about subjectivity, the body, other people, and political life. From trans bathroom panics to misogyny to abortion to immigration to Alligator Alcatraz and beyond, the three show how the work of abjection runs through a panoply of reactionary programs; how the continual creation of abjected, “revolting” populations and the conjuring of feelings of revulsion against them works to subvert revolutionary possibilities; and how abject groups have sought to both name and resist their oppression and to reclaim and redeploy its terms.References include: Julia Kristeva, “Approaching Abjection” in Powers of HorrorNoëlle McAfee, Fear of Breakdown: Politics and PsychoanalysisRyan Thorneycroft, Reimagining Disablist and Ableist Violence as AbjectionEyo Awara.

When you hear the words “surrendered sexuality,” what comes to mind—loss, shame, control? In this conversation, you'll hear a different vision. In this week's episode, Dr. Dan Allender is joined by clinical psychologist and author Dr. Juli Slattery. Together, they open up a vulnerable and hope-filled dialogue about sexuality—one that goes far beyond rules or “right answers.” Drawing from her new book Surrendered Sexuality: How Knowing Jesus Changes Everything, Juli shares how her own journey, through disruption, prayer, and deepening intimacy with God, led her to recognize the unspoken pain so many of us carry around sexuality. Rather than focusing on behaviors, Dan and Juli invite you to see sexuality as a core part of being human: your body, your emotions, your longing for connection, and ultimately, your intimacy with God. They also reframe what it means to surrender. Instead of shame or control, surrender becomes a gentle, ongoing invitation into the goodness of God—an opening to more pleasure in life, meaningful healing, and deeper trust in Jesus.  This isn't an episode with tidy conclusions or quick fixes. It's an invitation to step into the mystery of sexuality as part of your discipleship journey, and to discover that in surrender, you don't lose yourself. You find life: a life that is more whole, more connected, and more deeply rooted in the goodness of God.

Even in the happiest relationships, people don’t always share their fantasies and desires. And sometimes that’s because people are worried about rocking the boat. For example, what if you share a fantasy your partner isn’t into and it reveals an incompatibility? In this episode, we’re going to explore the factors that predict people’s willingness to open up about their fantasies, and why we sometimes decide to keep them to ourselves. I am joined once again by Matthew Kimberley, a lecturer in Psychology at Birmingham City University. He researches sexual fantasies and also leads the Gender, Sexuality and Intimate Relationships Research Lab. Some of the specific topics we explore include: What are the most common sexual fantasies people have? Which fantasies are people most likely to tell their partners about, and why? How is being in a relationship characterized by high levels of sexual novelty linked to sharing fantasies? How is the length of a relationship related to whether people share their fantasies? You can check out the Gender, Sexuality and Intimate Relationships Research Lab’s website to learn more about Matthew’s work. Got a sex question?

There are some souls whose presence feels like a deep exhale, like the banks of the river where you can just be yourself. Jeremy Lipkowitz is one of those rare beings. A former Buddhist monk turned executive coach, he blends ancient wisdom with neuroscience to guide men out of shame and back into integrity, presence, self-love and healthy sexuality.  I first had the honor of being on his podcast, and now I am thrilled to welcome him to Intimate Conversations. In this tender and illuminating conversation, we went places many are too afraid to explore: addiction, shame, intimacy, porn, and the path back home to yourself and your sovereignty. In this powerful episode we explored: -Jeremy's courageous journey from genetics researcher to Buddhist monk to becoming a leading voice in destigmatizing porn addiction and helping men reclaim their lives. -How seemingly innocent curiosities in childhood can quietly escalate into compulsive porn use, and why shame and secrecy make it worse. -The neuroscience behind addiction, novelty, and escalation, and how porn literally rewires the brain to need “more.” -The subtle but devastating ways porn impacts intimacy, from a lack of presence with partners to needing increasingly intense mental images from porn to stay aroused. -Jeremy's gentle, science-backed approach to recovery: mindfulness, meditation, habit change, and creating safe, non-judgmental community spaces for men to heal. -Why recovery is not just about quitting porn, but about training your mind and nervous system to desire gratitude, contentment, peace and true connection. -Our shared passion for unshaming sexuality, rebuilding healthy desire, and guiding both men and women back to wholeness, presence, and conscious intimacy. -The parallel patterns in women with vibrators, romance novels, and fantasy, and how these too can desensitize and disconnect us from real-life intimacy and presence. -How Jeremy helps clients dissolve shame, rewire their brains, and rebuild their sex lives from a place of acceptance and joy. After the Show on Patreon, Jeremy and I go deeper into his soul's truths and let loose dancing to his favorite Afro Beat. It warmed my heart to hear my episode on his Podcast, Unhooked: Breaking Porn Addition has received great feedback, especially with the communication tool, the Dyad. If you or someone you love has been affected by porn addiction or sexual shame, this episode will offer science, hope, and a path back to freedom and self-respect. You can connect with Jeremy at JeremyLipkowitz.com ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content! About Jeremy:   Jeremy Lipkowitz is a former Buddhist monk, meditation teacher, and ICF-certified executive coach who helps high-achieving men break free from compulsive behaviors—especially porn addiction—and build lives of integrity, discipline, and deep fulfillment. With over 13 years of meditation experience and hundreds of days spent in silent retreat, Jeremy blends ancient wisdom with cutting-edge science to guide individuals toward emotional resilience and personal freedom. A former genetic researcher who earned Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Genetics & Genomics and pursued a PhD at Duke University, Jeremy left academia after confronting his own struggles with addiction, shame, and self-judgment. A brief period of monastic training in Myanmar deepened his mindfulness practice and marked the start of a lifelong commitment to personal growth and service. As the founder of Unhooked Academy and host of the Unhooked Podcast, Jeremy is a leading voice in destigmatizing porn addiction and educating the public on effective, science-based recovery strategies. His work helps men overcome shame, understand the neuroscience of addiction, and create lasting transformation through mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and habit change. For over a decade, Jeremy has taught at universities, recovery centers, and global companies across the U.S. and Asia. His calm, grounded presence and ability to bridge analytical thinking with inner work make him a sought-after guide for professionals and executives looking to reclaim their lives from digital distractions and self-sabotaging patterns.

What if a family crisis could inspire a whole new way of living?In this episode, Connie shares how her brother's battle with chronic illness sparked a journey into holistic wellness that's changing lives.We dive into her brother's story and how it completely transformed her own path.

For so many Christian couples, sexuality and spirituality can feel like they're at odds. We've been taught that to be holy means to suppress desire—but what if our sexuality is actually one of the most powerful ways to love? In this deeply insightful episode, we talk with Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife about how to integrate faith, desire, and embodiment. We explore how repressing our sexuality keeps us disconnected, how true intimacy begins with self-honesty, and why learning to love through our sexuality is a profoundly spiritual act. You'll hear about: Why sexual integration, not suppression, leads to spiritual strength How ego, fear, and control distort connection—and what it means to love from the soul The difference between sex as validation vs. sex as communion How couples can cultivate that eros energy—aliveness, joy, and freedom—in their marriage Whether you've wrestled with shame around sexuality or you just want a richer, more connected relationship, this conversation will inspire you to see your body and your marriage in a whole new light.

In the journey toward healing, survivors often find that intentional practices like sober sex foster a deeper emotional and physical intimacy, essential for their trauma recovery. This emphasis on connection stands in stark contrast to much mainstream sexual messaging, which frequently excludes the necessary emotional components for true sexual well-being. Development of safe relationships is threatened when media and politics overstep their bounds, making autonomous sexual expression and recovery a constant social and personal endeavor.*This episode explores human sexuality and is intended for mature listeners.. To lay the foundation for how intimacy is the cornerstone of sexual wellbeing, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with two authors and experts in trauma and sexuality, Dr. Stephanie Covington and Dr. Vanessa Carlisle. Discussing their co-authored book, Awaken Your Sexuality: A Guide to Connection and Intimacy after Addiction and Trauma, Dr. Covington and Dr. Carlisle explore its core principles from various viewpoints. In the book, they examine the diverse facets of human sexuality, including the issues of entitlement and control that frequently surround it.

This short episode is a love note to your sexuality, and an invitation to come home to it. I share one of my favorite analogies to help you understand what it means to truly inhabit your sexual self, to stop treating your sexuality like an abandoned house and start tending to it like the warm, beautiful home it's meant to be. In this episode, I share: The difference between being disconnected from your sexuality and feeling fully at home in it How neglecting your pleasure shows up in your body and relationships What it means to take ownership of your sexual energy and desires How you can start reclaiming your sexuality through simple, embodied practices An invitation to join Pleasure Treats - my mini course to help you do exactly that Links and resources: Join Pleasure treats: https://www.erika-alsborn.com/p-treats Related episodes: 32: PLEASURE TREATS → Let's connect!

I've never dated anyone. Never been on a dating site. My experiences in the early stages of romance and relationships have always been intense, wild and unmistakable. I've seen something reposted a few times lately, an idea that people seem to be in awe of, that's been the story of my life: “What's crazy is that real lovers don't even do talking stages. All it takes is one good date and suddenly y'all are together every day after that.” Yeah. This is how it's always been for me. I EXPECT big love, big feeling, a whole-hearted, whole-vagina, whole-soul response to someone. Nothing less. Why would I waste my time on anything BUT that? In this episode:  Since I don't “date” here's what I do insteadThe morass of modern dating and my advice on how to navigate it Humans vs. superhumansJen Okazaki weighs in (iykyk) When you know you know People who marry for every other reason other than deep passion and what they look like 5, 10, 15 years down the road—I would know because I see them all the time Recognizing soul mates—or at least the people who hold vital learning for you here and now Shakespearean-Romantic-poet-epic-saga-love and nothing less Courage and boldness in love Death by a thousand cuts of cowardice

As Christians, we are often unclear about God's views on sex and intimacy. It can be a struggle to make sense of our temptations, shame, brokenness, longings, or desires. What is more, Christian churches and families are often divided in the nuances of sexuality, neglecting Jesus' most important call to be unified as His body.Mark and I often talk about the significance of surrender, but how should that impact our sex life?My friend Dr. Juli Slattery is deeply familiar with both topics and is here to help us connect the dots between surrender, sex, and sexuality. She is the President and Co-Founder of Authentic Intimacy, a ministry dedicated to reclaiming God's design for sexuality. She has authored twelve books, including her newest book, Surrendered Sexuality: How Knowing Jesus Changes… Everything.In this episode, you'll hear:Why Christians can't ignore the topic of sex and sexualityPractical steps to surrender in the area of sexualityAn encouraging word for anyone struggling with sexAnd more!It was truly a pleasure to have Juli back on the podcast for this conversation about surrender and sexuality.Find resources mentioned and more in the show notes: jillsavage.org/juli-slattery-268You're invited to our Transform Weekend October 24-26, 2025.

Welcome, my ghoulish fiends!Why do vampires seduce us even as they terrify us? In the second episode of Dark Thirst, I explore the erotic power of the vampire's bite, where intimacy meets violence, and desire crosses forbidden boundaries. We dive into repressed sexualities, dangerous loves and the Victorian obsession with "beautiful death," uncovering how fear and lust became inseparable in Gothic literature. From the shocking passion of Carmilla to Mina Harker's disturbing "baptism of blood" in Dracula, we reveal why the vampire still haunts our most forbidden fantasies.

What kind of partner do you want to be someday? Do you think privacy is important in a relationship? What do you think pornography leaves out about real relationships? These are just a few of the unusual yet important questions boys are rarely asked. In this episode, Dr. Delaney Ruston continues her conversation with educator Christopher Pepper and journalist Joanna Schroeder, co-authors of the new book Talk To Your Boys. Together, they discuss how to help boys navigate gaming, romantic relationships, and pornography.
