Episode notes
Contraception Was Cultural, Not Convicted
- Chrissy and Tim admitted they once used contraception out of cultural norms and naivete, expecting the Church to 'come around.'
- Research and reflection later shifted them to live without contraceptives.
Sex As Unity And Openness
- The couple frames sex in marriage as ordered to unity and openness to life, not mere pleasure or objectification.
- They tie this to dignity and resisting using a spouse as a means to personal gratification.
Curb Your Content Diet
- Avoid porn and sexualized content because it trains your desires and erodes intimacy with your spouse.
- Replace harmful content with faith formation and healthy habits to regain self-control.
