    Your Sexuality Was Never The Problem

    If nobody ever gave you permission to talk about sex and God in the same sentence — this episode is where that changes. Welcome to The Sensuality Series: Building Sexual Confidence with Coach Tammy on Sex Ed for Saints Podcast. In this first episode, we are laying the foundation for everything. We are going back to Genesis — before shame, before sin, before the church decided this conversation was off limits — and we are talking about what God actually designed when He created identity and sexuality together in the same breath.Here is what we are getting into today: — Why identity and sexuality were never meant to be separated (Genesis 1:26–27) — How life, culture, family, relationships, and incomplete teaching fragmented what God joined together — Why the church has language for identity wounds but has mostly gone silent on sexuality wounds — What it actually looks like when your sexuality is broken — and why it is harder to recognize than an identity wound — How purity culture damages even those who never experienced sexual trauma — Where sexuality shows up for the unmarried woman — Practical steps to begin your healing journey. This is not a conversation about what you should or should not be doing in the bedroom. This is a conversation about who God designed you to be — and why you cannot separate identity from sexuality without leaving half of yourself unhealed. Today's lesson: You were not created broken. You were created whole. And then life happened. But the God who made you is still in the restoration business. 📖 Key scriptures: Genesis 1:26–28 · Romans 12:2 · Psalm 139:14 📲 Submit your anonymous questions: Instagram: @themarriagelabllc — click the anonymous question tab Email: yourmarriagelab@gmail.com 📺 Watch on BGTV Networks 🎙️ Sex Ed for Saints Podcast — available wherever you listen #SexEdForSaints #TheSensualitySeries #ChristianIntimacy #SexualConfidence #ChristianMarriage #SexualHealing #PurityCulture #BGTVNetworks #CoachTammy #BiblicalSexuality #ChristianWomen #MarriageAndIntimacy #HealingJourney #IdentityInChrist #SexualityAndFaith

    How Childhood Sexual Abuse Destroyed My Marriage Intimacy and How I Finally Healed

    What happens when the wound your father left follows you straight into your marriage bed? In this powerful episode of Sex Ed For Saints, I sit down with Taleah Pletzer, abuse survivor, overcomer, and Immanuel Healing Prayer Practitioner, for one of the most raw and necessary conversations we have ever had on this podcast. Taleah survived childhood sexual abuse at the hands of her own father. She survived domestic violence. She survived divorce. And then she tried to build a new life, only to discover that her body, her heart, and her marriage were still carrying wounds she had not fully healed. The intimacy she desperately wanted with her husband felt impossible because the trauma of her past was still in the room. If you have ever wondered why you cannot fully show up in your marriage, why your body shuts down during intimacy, or why love still feels unsafe even with a good partner, this episode will give you language for something you may have never been able to name. In this episode we talk about: ✨ How childhood sexual abuse and domestic violence silently destroy marriage intimacy ✨ Why unhealed trauma follows you into every relationship, even good ones ✨ What Immanuel Healing Prayer is and how it brings God into the healing process ✨ How to rebuild emotional safety and trust after abuse ✨ Breaking generational cycles of trauma and shame ✨ Reclaiming your identity, your body, and your faith ✨ What true healing actually looks like and why it is possible for YOU This is not just a story about what happened to Taleah. This is a story about what is possible when you stop surviving and start healing. Whether you are a survivor yourself, love someone who is, or simply want to understand how trauma and intimacy intersect, do not skip this episode. _________________________________ 🎙️ CONNECT WITH YOUR HOST _________________________________ Instagram: @themarriagelabllc Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and YouTube.

    What's Your Sexual Story?

    Before marriage… before purity culture… before heartbreak… before the world told you who you were… a sexual story was already being written. In this episode of Sex-Ed for Saints, featuring guest Bridgett Blood, we’re diving into a conversation many singles have needed but rarely hear: What is singleness teaching you about your sexual story? Too often, faith conversations around sex focus only on what not to do, while skipping the deeper questions of identity, formation, desire, healing, and discipleship. But your sexuality is not something that suddenly matters once you’re married. Your beliefs, experiences, boundaries, wounds, and understanding are being shaped right now. In this conversation, Bridgett shares insight on how singleness can reveal:✨ Who shaped your understanding of sex✨ How church, culture, and personal experiences influence your sexual beliefs✨ The difference between sexual suppression and healthy sexual stewardship✨ How to honor God while understanding your desires✨ Why your sexual formation matters long before marriage Whether you’re single, healing, dating, or simply trying to understand your story through a healthier lens, this episode invites you to reflect on the narratives that have shaped you and ask whether they align with truth. Because the question isn’t just “What am I avoiding?”It’s also… “Who am I becoming?” Your sexual story matters. And singleness may be teaching you more than you realize. 🎙️ Featuring: Bridgett Blood📱 Instagram: @bridgettblood🌐 Website: http://bridgettblood.com Watch now and join the conversation.Subscribe to Sex-Ed for Saints for candid, faith-based conversations about intimacy, healing, relationships, and wholeness.

    I HAD TO FIGHT AND I NEVER LOSE (70 Years Married Advice)

    This Mother’s Day, I’m sharing one of the most personal episodes I’ve ever recorded. Two years before my grandmother passed away, I had the honor of sitting down with her to talk about marriage, love, sacrifice, and what it really takes to stay committed. My grandmother was married for nearly 70 years. Seventy. Not because it was easy. Not because there weren’t struggles. Not because they didn’t face separation, heartbreak, pride, pain, or hardship. But because she made up her mind: “I was determined to fight for my marriage.” In this special legacy episode, my grandmother shares wisdom from nearly seven decades of marriage, motherhood, perseverance, and commitment. This conversation is more than advice. It’s family history. It’s legacy. It’s a reminder that covenant, endurance, and love require fight. If you’ve ever questioned your marriage… If you’ve ever needed wisdom from an older generation… If you’ve ever wondered what made marriages last… This episode is for you. ⚠️ Please note: This interview was recorded years ago, and some audio imperfections are present, but I encourage you to listen beyond the noise and hear the heart. This is more than a podcast. This is a piece of my grandmother’s legacy. Happy Mother’s Day to the women whose wisdom still speaks, even after they’re gone. 🤍 #MothersDay #MarriageAdvice #GrandmotherWisdom #Legacy #Marriage #ChristianMarriage #LoveAndCommitment #SexEdForSaints #TheMarriageLab

    Orgasms and Gaps Oh My!!!

    How many of us were taught how to be wives… but nobody ever taught us how to experience pleasure in marriage? Friend, today’s conversation is one of those “we need to talk about this” moments. In this episode, I sit down with Melissa Gendreau, and we get real about the orgasm gap and what it actually looks like in marriage. Not from a worldly perspective, but from a place of truth, healing, and understanding how God designed our bodies. Because let me tell you… pleasure was never meant to be one-sided. We talk about:✨ What the orgasm gap is and why so many women experience it✨ Why learning your body is not selfish… it’s necessary✨ How shame, silence, and lack of education show up in the bedroom✨ Teaching our children about their bodies in a healthy, shame-free way✨ Why using proper anatomical language matters more than we think✨ How intimacy starts long before the bedroom Now listen… this is not just about orgasms.This is about connection, communication, and confidence in your marriage. Because when you understand your body, you show up differently.When you release shame, you experience freedom.And when both partners are connected… intimacy hits different. “Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth—for your love is more delightful than wine.” (Song of Songs 1:2, NIV) God’s design for intimacy is good. Period. So whether you’re struggling to experience pleasure, feeling disconnected, or just know there has to be more… this conversation is for you. 🎧 Tap in, lean in, and let’s grow.
