277: When 'Good' Gets In The way of Good Sex: 3 Mindset Shifts


Listen Later

Can "being good" actually get in the way of good sex? If you have spent your life "trying to be good," but still struggle to create a deep intimate connection with your spouse, you're not alone. In this episode, we talk about how to move beyond "good-boy/good-girl syndrome" and into the inherent goodness God designed in sexuality.

If you grew up believing that sexual thoughts or desires were dangerous, shameful, or spiritually risky, this episode will help you see your sexuality through an entirely new lens—one grounded in joy, creativity, emotional connection, and spiritual maturity.

You'll learn:

  • Why chastity and fidelity aren't restrictions—they're keys to true sexual freedom

  • How your motivation for sex changes when obligation is removed

  • Why the "dirty" parts of sex might be the very things that sanctify your marriage

  • How embracing paradox and playfulness makes intimacy deeper and more meaningful

This is an episode for every couple longing to move from anxiety-driven sex to soul-expanding intimacy.
