Relationships and Marriage (Part 2): Keeping the Fire Burning
from How God Works: The Science Behind Spirituality · host PRX
To hear Hollywood tell it, good sex is a clothes-ripping race to the finish line, often between people who barely know each other. But the version we’re getting from movies and pop culture isn’t what it takes to build real intimacy, trust, and connection in the long term. On this episode, we’ll talk to Rachel Alba, a clinical sexologist with a master’s in theology, about the connection between sex and spirituality, and why exploring that link may be key to developing a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with your partner, and maybe even the divine. To find out more about Rachel Alba’s work, visit her website, Sex With Spirit.
