Marriage Retreat Live Q&A - keeping secrets; defining virginity; aging; and more... [180]

lundi 26 janvier 2026 • Durée 46:47

What happens when a room full of couples asks the questions most people are afraid to say out loud? We lean into the hard stuff: purity culture hangovers, what “counts” as sex, how to tell the truth without breaking trust, and how aging bodies can still enjoy rich, connected intimacy. Recorded live at our Intimate Covenant Marriage Retreat, this candid Q&A blends biblical wisdom, practical tools, and warm honesty to help you move from silence and shame to clarity and closeness.

Your Questions, Our Answers (talking about sex, prioritizing beauty, sleeping naked, asking for touch) [170]

Épisode 170

lundi 11 novembre 2024 • Durée 42:48

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode, Matt & Jenn answer the following listener questions:

What advice do you have for couples that have great sex but struggle talking about sex? We’ve tried conversation starters but the answers are always brief.
I’m ashamed how much value I place on my spouses physical appearance. Self-improvement is a good virtue, but how do I ensure my motives are not immoral or shallow
I enjoy sleeping naked. My wife hates it. How can I encourage her to try & embrace it regularly. It's a great sensual way to enjoy each other without having sex.
I crave physical touch (not just sexually), as a pursuer how do ask for this without coming across as needy? Rub my back, hold my hand, hug me. How do I ask?

Challenges of Sex During Pregnancy [78]

Épisode 78

lundi 31 janvier 2022 • Durée 45:01

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode Matt & Jenn speak to the challenges of maintaining a sexual relationship and all other realms of connection during pregnancy.

In almost all situations, sex during pregnancy is safe. If you are unsure, ask your health care provider and be sure that you ask specific questions about what’s allowed or not.
Pregnancy will change many things about a woman’s body and biochemistry that might make sex more challenging.
But, there are ways to overcome these obstacles and to grow all points of closeness and intimacy in your marriage during this special time.

Is It OK To Have Sex During Her Period? [77]

Épisode 77

lundi 24 janvier 2022 • Durée 46:32

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode, Matt and Jenn discuss period sex -- is it biblical? is it healthy? why would I want to? are there ways to make it easier?

If you both are interested, sex during her period is safe, scriptural, and maybe even beneficial. It just may have to look different than at other times.
No, a wife is NOT obligated to perform sexual favors during her period in order to keep her husband from being tempted. An obligation mindset is an objectification of women and demeaning to men.
Whether you engage in any degree of sex or not during her period, be intentional to not let your relationship drift apart during this time.

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

Épisode 76

lundi 17 janvier 2022 • Durée 46:48

Send us Fan Mail

In 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.

Choreplay [75]

Épisode 75

lundi 10 janvier 2022 • Durée 43:37

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode, Matt & Jenn discuss the concept of a husband helping with household chores to win sexual favors from his wife, a.k.a. "choreplay." Is this a fun, win-win idea? What are the dangers of this transactional approach to sex?

There is certainly some truth in the idea that a wife will be more inclined toward sex if a husband is willing to help with the endless tasks required to effectively run a home.
Choreplay is a dangerous idea when one or both spouses begin to believe that sex is transactional or husband-focused, rather than a mutually pleasurable means of further building connection.
View sex and household chores in a way that promotes connection — with humility and a servant’s heart.

State of the Covenant [74]

Épisode 74

lundi 3 janvier 2022 • Durée 42:11

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode, Matt & Jenn share their method of critically assessing the state of their own marital intimacy and some tips on how to have the conversation about setting goals for better connection.

For real progress in your marriage, it’s important to critically evaluate the past and to set goals for the future.
A thorough evaluation of your marriage should include assessment of each realm of intimacy: spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical.
In setting relationship goals, I need to define what I am going to change individually with specific and realistic plan.

We took our own “State of the Covenant” conversation and created a detailed form with conversation starters and a step-by-step breakdown of the process that we use to regularly assess our relationship status and to set intimacy-building goals. We've organized our conversation and the form around the four realms intimacy: spiritual, mental, emotional and physical.

Free for Covenant Club members. If you’ve signed up for pre-launch, we’ll send you this form in an email this week. And once Covenant Club is live, you’ll be able to access the form whenever you want.
For the rest of you, you can find the form in our store on the website: https://intimatecovenant.com/services/
