Does My Spouse Owe Me Sex? (1 Corinthians 7:1-5) [76]

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Matt & Jenn discuss the oft quoted Bible passage 1 Corinthians 7:1-5 and whether this scripture gives a spouse the right to demand sex from his/her spouse.Overall, 1 Corinthians 7 teaches that I am obligated to meet the sexual needs of my spouse.But this passage does NOT give me authority to demand sex from my spouse. Demanding or offering sex out of obligation is not Christ-like and is unhealthy for your marriage.When there is a sexual fast in your marriage, there needs needs to be ongoing conversation about it and it needs to be for the betterment of the spiritual and emotional relationship.Come and Meet Us In-Person:Louisville, KY — March 4 & 5: DESIRING an Intimate Covenant, marriage seminar.
