What We Don’t Talk About: Sex, Shame, and Sunday Faith | 왠지 말하기 어려운 얘기들: 성, 수치심, 그리고 교회 이야기

왠지 말하기 어려운 얘기들: 성, 수치심, 그리고 신앙 What We Don’t Talk About: Sex, Shame, and Sunday Faith In this episode, we gently step into the conversations we tend to avoid—sex, shame, and faith. Topics that are deeply connected, yet often left unspoken. Roy, a licensed marriage and family therapist and former pastor, brings a unique perspective shaped by years of working with sexual addiction and betrayal trauma. He sees himself as a bridge between the Church, the addict, the betrayed partner, and the divorced—helping each side find the language to understand one another better. Together, we talk about how shame takes root, how faith can both support and complicate healing, and why these conversations feel so hard to have—especially in our communities. This isn’t about having all the answers, but about creating space for honesty, nuance, and real understanding. A thoughtful, human conversation about the things we don’t usually say out loud.
