Episode notes
Pornography Warps Body Image
- Pornography distorts expectations by presenting narrow, performative images of bodies and sex.
- These images can damage self-image and create unrealistic standards for spouses.
Process Past Intimacy With Wise Counsel
- Seek wise counsel and pastoral help to process past sexual experiences and memory intrusions.
- Allow the Holy Spirit to reshape memories so past intimacy becomes repulsive, not enticing.
Treat Marriage As A Learning Process
- Do trust marriage as a covenant of learning and curiosity rather than a product test.
- Take joy in discovering your spouse sexually, spiritually, and domestically over time.
