32: That's Just Gross!

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Matt & Jenn respond to some listener questions about overcoming the disgust response in our sex lives — that unconscious grossed-out reaction that we might have to some forms of sexual activity. Differentiate your sexual preferences from God’s sexual boundaries.Disgust is a learned behavior and can be a significant sexual brake for those of us with a sensitive conscience. This becomes a problem in marriage when each spouse’s disgust levels are very different.Accept that you can change your preferences over time and learn to enjoy all of God’s glorious gifts of sexual pleasure. You don’t have to absolutely love everything, but you can learn to find enjoyment AND CONNECTION in everything.Register for the 2021 Annual Retreat in Spring, TX, September 23-25: https://intimatecovenant.com/2021-marriage-retreat-you-are-invited/ Take advantage of Early Bird Pricing until April 1 (no joke!) Please send your comments, questions and suggestions to [email protected] Thanks for sharing, rating and subscribing!
