Sexual addiction is more common than many of us realize. And in the wake of purity culture, many Christians don't know how to think well about sex and sexual sin. In this episode, Phy breaks down why sexuality deserves honor and the hope we have when we've fallen short.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Verity. I'm your host, Felicia Masonheimer, an author, speaker, and Bible teacher. |
| 0:07.0 | This podcast will help you embrace the history and depth of the Christian faith, |
| 0:11.8 | ask questions, seek answers, and devote yourself to becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ. |
| 0:18.2 | You don't have to settle for water down Christian teaching. And if you're ready to go deeper, |
| 0:23.3 | God is just as ready to take you there. This is Verity, where every woman is a theologian. |
| 0:30.1 | Hello and welcome back to Verity podcast friends. Today we are talking about a very sensitive topic, |
| 0:35.7 | but one that is near and dear to my heart. If you've been following me for any span of time, |
| 0:41.1 | you know that sexual addiction is a part of my testimony. And my husband and I have also shared |
| 0:47.3 | our story together during the marriage series of this podcast. So I'm excited to be able to |
| 0:54.0 | talk about this again, because it is how I actually got my start as a blogger and a writer |
| 0:59.8 | and was the niche that I began writing in before it expanded into every woman a theologian. So |

| 1:13.1 | it may even be a little bit triggering. So I pray that this episode meets you where you are and |
| 1:19.3 | is a healing and encouraging episode for you. But I also understand if at some point you need to take |
| 1:25.5 | a break or pause because it is triggering to something in your past or something that you're |
| 1:30.6 | working through right now. Just know that God wants you to be free. He wants you to have peace and |
| 1:36.7 | he wants you to have victory and that his love is for you, not just for everyone else. So in |
| 1:43.6 | this episode, we're going to start by talking a little bit about why sexual sin even is sin. Like, |
| 1:50.5 | what are we talking about when we say that? And then we will go into the details of why and how God |
| 1:56.8 | forgives it. So if you've grown up in purity culture or in perhaps a more legalistic |
| 2:05.2 | perspective of Christianity, a lot of the things that are said about sex and said about sexuality |
| 2:12.0 | can be twisted by this legalism or by these rules and move us so far away from the biblical sexual |
