257: Bonus - Blowjobs Aren't Just for Husbands Aug 12, 2025

Show notes

Hey friends, let me be honest with you - as a man speaking for many men, oral sex is a big deal to us. We love it. It's incredibly pleasurable. But here's what makes today's episode so powerful: I'm sharing a conversation from a wife's perspective about how she finds giving oral sex deeply pleasurable and meaningful.

Now, the beautiful thing about oral sex is that it's inherently intimate. You're giving your complete attention and focus to your spouse. There's something vulnerable and connecting about the very act itself. So learning how to genuinely enjoy it - not just on the receiving end, but actually on the giving end - can be an incredible gift to your marriage.

I'm excited to bring this topic to you today because this is actually a conversation I recorded a few years ago that's been sitting in the archives. I don't think many of you have heard it, and honestly, the underlying principle is too powerful not to share again.

Here's the thing - this isn't just about technique tips for better oral sex, though we'll cover some of that. It's so much deeper. It's about a complete attitude shift and reframe that can transform this part of your intimate life together.

If you're ready to think differently about giving and receiving in the bedroom, you won't want to miss this conversation.

256: Eyes Open or Closed During Sex? What It Says About Intimacy Aug 08, 2025

Show notes

What's the difference between having sex and truly making love?

In this episode, we're talking about how to bring your whole self—your body, mind, heart, and soul—into your intimate moments with your spouse.

You'll hear powerful stories of real couples who felt disconnected in their sex lives, even with consistent physical intimacy. Together, we'll explore what it means to move from mechanical, eyes-closed sex to something deeper and richer: emotional presence, vulnerability, and connection.

If you've ever felt alone after sex… if your body is there but your heart feels miles away… this episode is for you. You'll learn what "eyes open sex" looks like in real life, why we sometimes hide from true intimacy, and how small, intentional shifts can lead to transformational closeness in your marriage.

Whether you're looking to reignite connection or take your intimacy to the next level, this episode is packed with practical tools, encouragement, and hope.

255: Still Waiting for Orgasm? A Loving Guide for Women Who've Tried Everything Aug 01, 2025

Show notes

If you're a woman who's never had an orgasm, struggles to orgasm consistently, or wonders if what you've experienced really counts—this episode is for you.

I want you to know this: you are not broken, and there is absolutely hope. In this episode, I share seven key truths about female orgasm, why it matters, and how you can move forward—physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

We'll talk about:

Why orgasm is a skill you can learn (you're not defective!)
The importance of creating the right environment
How psychological, relational, or spiritual blocks might be getting in the way
Why self-exploration and vibrators are powerful, shame-free tools
What supportive husbands can do to truly help (and what not to do)

I've worked with many women who felt hopeless and stuck, and I've seen time and time again that healing, pleasure, and confidence are possible. You don't have to figure this out on your own.

You have permission to want this. You have permission to grow. And you are so worth the effort.

254: Pornography and White Rice: Nourishing Your Marriage with Real Erotic Connection Jul 25, 2025

Show notes

What does white rice have to do with pornography? I know that sounds like a strange question, but stick with me here because this analogy completely changed how I understand what pornography does to our relationships.

I'll also share a more compassionate, Christ-centered approach to overcoming pornography habits that doesn't rely on shame or willpower alone.

Here's what we'll cover together:

• The surprising history of rice and what happens when you strip away the "bran" - and how this perfectly illustrates what pornography does to sexuality • Why shame, hiding, and secrecy actually prevent us from growing and healing • How to embrace your full sexual nature alongside your spouse instead of in isolation • A more nuanced view on sexual imagery, arousal, and discernment that might surprise you

If you've been struggling with pornography or if it's affected your marriage, this episode will offer you hope and a more loving way forward. Because here's what I've learned: building a marriage that's deeply nourishing - body, heart, and soul - requires us to understand the difference between empty calories and real intimacy.

Let's dive in.

249: Quickie - Why Your Spouse Avoids Affection and What to Do About It Jul 04, 2025

Show notes

Have you ever wondered why your spouse dodges your attempts at affection or how quickly he or she shuts down any of your affection attempts? Or how a simple kiss gets treated like you're asking for something much bigger? Well, in this episode I'm going to explain exactly why one partner who craves affection has a partner that avoids it.

And by the end, you'll know this simple mindset shift that can transform your relationship from a frustrating game of chase into one of genuine connection and intimacy.

A quick note:

I want to try something a little different this summer. We are still publishing episodes every Friday, but once in a while I might drop an extra episode in the middle of the week and sometimes they will be a little shorter. (We'll call them quickie episodes! How fitting, right?!) They're intended to be short, easy, and fun to listen to and teach a principle that you can apply right away in your own intimate relationship to make it better. And this episode you're listening to is one of our quickie episodes. I hope you enjoy it!
