Summary

"In the premarital stage, what are some good boundaries to have sexually?" When we get this question, we like to use a model called "The Dating Ladder" to answer it. We got the idea from our friends over at Moral Revolution (they dubbed it "The Intimacy Ladder" and we expound upon it in today's episode on the #DYMCpodcast).⁠   This question was asked from the SpeakPipe (where your recorded voice is actually in the episode). Record YOUR question for our next ask episode here on SpeakPipe.   Connect with us on IG/FB: @dearyoungmarriedcouple www.dearyoungmarriedcouple.com   P.S. If you're a dating/engaged couple, here's a shameless plug for the REALIZATIONS deck - 52 cards of questions designed with you in mind - grab it here. Learn more about your ad choices.

0:35.5

what are good boundaries to have sexually? What is too far and what might

0:39.8

be a better question to ask to avoid sexual sin for marriage with your partner? All right.

0:45.7

All right. So for those that are not believers, this is not for you. We're seeing things from a

0:53.3

different worldview. Yeah. So if you feel led to leave comments

0:57.2

about how you don't share the same values system and that sex before marriage is okay,

1:02.5

you go right ahead and leave those comments. But this video is meant for those who share our

1:06.6

value system, which is a biblical worldview that says, hey, sex is awesome and marriage is strong

1:12.8

enough to contain that awesomeness. And so the question here from this guy was, hey, how do we

1:20.4

put boundaries in place prior to marriage so that we can save this beautiful gift of sacred sex

for marriage? So that's what we're here to answer today.

1:28.7

Right. Because this is really the antithesis of hookup culture. We are saving ourselves for the one,

1:37.4

right, for our spouse. So we recently actually had a question very similar to this from a youth group.

1:46.7

And so we actually engaged with them in conversation over Zoom and did a whole study on this with them.

1:54.5

And so this is really what we came up with.

1:58.0

And there's so many opinions on this, so we'll tread lightly.
