August 17 Is Sex Bringing You Closer to God? | Ep. 285
Ready to increase your desire and experience pleasure? Join the next round of Want it and Enjoy it
In this episode of Reclaiming Catholic Intimacy, Ellen Holloway and Kathleen Chovanes talk about what it really means to see sex as a gift from God instead of something that's just "allowed" in marriage. They share how changing the way we think about intimacy can help us grow closer to our husbands and even closer to God, especially if we've spent years believing sex was shameful or off limits.
St. Ignatius of Loyola quote: "All the things in this world are gifts of God, created for us, to be the means by which we can come to know him better, love him more surely, and serve him more faithfully."
