we're love we're cleansed we're new creations in Christ all things are made new uh you know we have

fellowship with the Lord and we have fellowship with one another and we can walk in the light and

you know Jesus cleanses us from all and righteousness I mean all of our identity has to shift over

not to what we did or what they did but what Jesus does all righty marky, Mark and Grace Driscoll here with the Real Marriage Podcast.

And in this four-part series, we're taking questions.

So best friend Grace, what do you got for this one?

This question is, how can you deal with past sexual trauma in your current marriage?

It makes it hard to be intimate and puts a strain on their relationship sometimes.

So this is generational consistency and catastrophe.

I think it is, if memory serves me to correct, one in four women, one in six

men reports being sexually assaulted, and we don't know what kind of trauma they're talking about.

Could be, you know, there's different kinds of trauma. And it's supposed to be the most underreported

crime. And I would say, probably especially among men. And that probably doesn't

include the fact that oftentimes close family members are involved, siblings, you know, dad,

uncle, grandpa. And so we don't really know the scope and the size of the generational epidemic.

But the person asking this question, it's a brave question.

They're asking it on behalf of a lot of people.

And so let's assume it's sexual trauma.

Yeah, past sexual trauma.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.
