192.  Prioritizing Growth while Parenting Little Ones

Friend, this chat is critical. As we attempt to reframe our view of sex, we are missing the mark if we continue to focus on a narrow and limiting view of “sexual activity” vs. the oneness and meaning that comes through “sexual intimacy.”    Let’s unpack the differences, think about how we got here and how we find a way forward. And, let’s embrace a lifestyle of love making, where intimacy permeates every aspect of a marriage.  We’ll dig into these topics:     The traditional view of sex as solely sexual activity is limited and fails to capture the depth and beauty of sexual intimacy.   A more aligned with design view of sex, sexual intimacy, which involves vulnerability, communication, and connection, and extends beyond the bedroom into all aspects of a marriage.   Practicals for creating a lifestyle of love making prioritizes intellectual, physical, and emotional intimacy, creating a more integrated and fulfilling experience.   Encouragement to have open conversations in your marriage about your sexual experiences and work towards deepening their sexual intimacy.     101 Course: Strong Foundations to Starting Well CLAIMING A HEALTHY VISION FOR MARRIED SEX To build a love that lasts, you must begin with a strong foundation.

191. Reframe: Sexual Activity vs. Sexual Intimacy

Let’s pause and get on the same page. Language plays a crucial role in shaping culture and creating a sense of familiarity and understanding. And, a word used quite often in our conversations here is integration. What does it mean and why does it matter?   In 1 Thessalonians 5: 23 we see, “May God himself, the God who makes everything holy and whole, make you holy and whole, put you together - spirit, soul, and body - and keep you fit for the coming of our Master, Jesus Christ.”   We are all on a journey toward more wholeness, more integration. Let’s define integration under our Biblical lens, particularly as we look at our bodies and sexuality through a more celebratory view. Let’s continue to uproot misconceptions and shame that lead to disintegration and disconnection as we learn to lean in to the stirring of God toward more healing and wholeness.
