About this episode

We understand the struggle wives often have with their body image and how it affects their sexuality. Today we want to revisit this topic to discuss how we can finally embrace our bodies and get comfortable being naked with our husbands.

• Why is having a positive body image such a challenge for women?
• What can we do to combat messages that make us feel worse about ourselves?
• Do we have any responsibility to take care of our bodies?
• Despite how we feel about ourselves, most husbands find their wives beautiful. But what about the wife whose husband criticizes her appearance?
• What advice from your own journey would you give to help a wife embrace a positive body image?

rom the Bible

What does God have to say about body image?

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:13-14
