| 0:00.0 | Hello, friends. Welcome back to another episode of the Heaven in Your Home podcast. I'm Francie, |
| 0:07.5 | and it's really just such a sweet gift to be able to share this space. I am in the throes of just busy mom life, |
| 0:15.3 | but when I get to steal away to my closet and really pray through and ponder questions you guys have sent me conversations I've |
| 0:23.1 | had with you guys in real life just my own journey as being a wife who wants more of God in my |
| 0:30.4 | heart and my mind and my body I want to be integrated I want to be more healed knowing that I |
| 0:35.8 | grew up in knowing Jesus but so so steeped in kind of the more |
| 0:41.1 | of the purity culture, just knowing I have a lot to learn so that I can walk in more freedom and I can |
| 0:45.8 | give it to my kids. And so if you are in that same boat, I'm just so glad you're here. And if you're |

| 1:17.8 | constantly being renewed in your mind and in your body. Sometimes our bodies are sick and |
| 1:23.4 | ailing, but there's something about the healing work of God, the healing through the Holy Spirit |
| 1:28.7 | that renews us on every level and how we see our bodies and how we relate to our bodies |
| 1:33.7 | and our sexuality and that that newness, the God who makes every sunrise new, whose mercies are |
| 1:40.1 | new every morning, gives us that gift so that we don't have to get stuck in a rut of boring in our |
| 1:44.8 | sex lives. We are continually being renewed and continually growing being changed into more of the |
| 1:53.0 | people and the humans that he's made us to be when we get connected with our designer and |
| 1:57.5 | his heart for his design specifically in marriage and with sexuality is what we're |
| 2:02.4 | talking about here. So building on that, today we're going to talk about fantasy in marriage. |
| 2:07.7 | Is it okay or is it not okay? This came from a listener question. And so before we go any further, |
