Intimacy is a Gift Not a Weapon | Dr. Z & Mama Z
Description
What happens when biblical truth meets cultural confusion about sex and marriage?
In this candid conversation, we unpack the verse "your body is not your own" and the real-life meaning of intimacy in a healthy, God-honoring relationship.
After our viral Instagram post on marriage tips, we had to dig deeper into the issue of sexless marriage and being equally yoked as partners. We get vulnerable about how our past challenges had to be overcome, and how we seek the benefit of our spouse as a gift of connection.
You'll Learn:
Intimacy Matters
Don't Weaponize Sex
Your Body Is Not Your Own?
Healing Trauma & Pain
Communicate Through Awkwardness
Practical Ways to Build Closeness
Drawing from our own healing journeys and years of ministry, we offer practical guidance to rebuild the gift of intimacy without shame or confusion.
As always, our prayer is that you experience the abundant life.
~ Dr. Z & Mama Z
