Summary
Your female body is an extravagant gift from God.
He gave you a beautiful body and He’s called you to steward it well. Stewardship starts with knowing your body. And knowing that your female body was created for pleasure. When you look at the way you were designed, you can marvel at the Creator who made you with such a huge capacity for pleasure.
I want to hold open, celebratory conversations about the female body and have a different kind of conversation about pleasure. Friend, we’re continuing to lean into the Word of God and the works of God and see the beautiful design of the female body.
Rest is key to your ability to receive relaxation, tap into your five senses and experience pleasure. Let’s discover the beauty of the feminine joy you were created to walk in.

| 0:00.0 | Hi, friends. Welcome back to another episode of the Heaven and Your Home podcast. Today, we're going to continue on a conversation that we started last week about the power of rest and caring for our bodies and stewarding our bodies in a way that glorifies God, which includes our sexuality. |
| 0:19.8 | Last week, I talked most about the dynamic of |
| 0:22.8 | balancing the tension or holding the tension of sacrifice for our families, that it does require |
| 0:28.8 | sacrifice. Like we can't deny that aspect, but there is another aspect of a call to a rhythm of rest |
| 0:35.1 | and an awareness that our bodies are gifts to be stewarded, |
| 0:38.7 | not to be neglected. And I want to take that a little bit further in a more intimate manner in |
| 0:43.9 | this conversation by talking about our design for pleasure. We look at God's word and we see |
| 0:49.4 | God's heart based on what he has said in his word, the values that he holds to be a way of life. |
| 0:57.5 | And then we also look at God's creation to see what does the things that God has made? |
| 1:02.4 | What do those things say about God's heart? |
| 1:05.6 | What does the design of our bodies tell us about God's design for our lives because it wouldn't be appropriate to think, |
| 1:14.8 | oh, well, God's design for our bodies is that we need sleep, but I'm not going to ever sleep |
| 1:19.5 | because I don't want to or because it's holy or not to sleep. The design of our bodies |
| 1:23.4 | informs a way of life that would be healthy for us. I love looking at our sexuality, specifically women's pleasure capacity |
| 1:31.8 | as a spectacular display of the heart of God based on our design. |
| 1:38.0 | Our capacity to receive pleasure is insane. |
| 1:40.5 | There are 15,000 nerve endings that go from our pelvic floor throughout our body up to our |
| 1:46.4 | brainstem. There are all sorts of erogenous zones that are connected from head to toe. Literally, |
| 1:51.3 | our bodies as women are designed to be electric with pleasure when we're fully aroused. However, |
| 1:59.9 | there are many traps along the path for us women, especially in the DNA to where we're fully aroused. However, there are many traps along the path for us women, especially |
| 2:04.1 | in the day and age where we live, that prevent us from getting to that place of full arousal |
| 2:08.9 | and an expression of our sexual beauty. We're going to talk about that a little bit today. |
