| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody. Thanks for joining me today on the Heaven in Your Home podcast. I'm Francie Winslow. And today we're going to talk about why I love my husband's sex drive. |
| 0:14.8 | Kind of a silly little quote to say, I love my husband's sex drive, but honestly with the amount of women that I've talked to |
| 0:21.5 | who have experienced a different side of sex, a different perspective of sex, I want to unpack |
| 0:27.2 | this so that maybe together we can think differently about sex and hopefully enjoy the gift |
| 0:32.9 | of a sex drive, whether it's the husband's sex drive or the wife's sex drive, to celebrate |
| 0:36.6 | it as a good gift from God. |
| 0:38.7 | Before we jump into that, I'm going to say a word of prayer. And if you don't mind, just open your |
| 0:44.2 | heart to the Lord with me. Father, thank you for the opportunity to know you in this place. |
| 0:50.2 | We pray, Father, that you would rewire our thinking, rewire our understanding of this gift of sex |
| 0:56.4 | and help us to see our bodies and our marriages and the calling that's on our marriages from your |
| 1:02.9 | perspective. In Jesus' name, amen. |

| 1:24.8 | And I really had begun to see things a little bit of a different, in a different |
| 1:29.3 | light. It wasn't always that way. I grew up as a pretty conservative church girl in the |
| 1:35.9 | South. I really loved the Lord and I wanted to live for him. And I wanted every part of my life to |
| 1:40.3 | really be filled with him. But when it came to sex, the main thing that I heard over and over again |
| 1:46.2 | was just don't do it, don't do it, don't do it. It was the abstinence movement, which is a great |
| 1:50.3 | blessing when it's time to be abstinent. But the missing factor on that was a more thorough |
| 1:56.4 | and whole way to see sex. So by the time I was able to have sex in marriage and it was the right |
| 2:01.9 | thing to do, that was the thing I was supposed to do, I'd been told, don't do it, don't do it, |
| 2:05.5 | don't do it for so long. But I didn't know how to do it. Even more importantly, I didn't |
