From the Bible

Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. Romans 8:5

You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. Ephesians 4:22–24

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:8

0:06.0	What does God really want for the sexual intimacy in our marriages? I'm Bonnie Burns of strong

0:22.2	Welcome back to sex chat for Christian wives.
0:24.7	If you're like most women, you grew up hearing that men think about sex all the time.
0:29.3	But do they?
0:30.3	All the time?
0:31.5	Today we're tackling that important question because how often men really think about sex
0:36.0	affects how we view their desires, what we expect
0:38.9	sexually in our marriages, and how we deal with challenges.
0:42.1	Let's start off by talking about the messages we've heard.
0:45.3	What did you hear while growing up or in adulthood about how often men think about sex?
0:50.5	I didn't hear messages from my parents.
0:53.9	There was nothing I picked up from them about how often men want sex, but all the TV shows I wasn't supposed to watch that I did while I was babysitting other people. I was not allowed to watch Three's company, but you bet I had it on when I was babysitting. A lot of those TV shows taught me that
1:13.2	not necessarily that men think about sex all the time, but that men think about sex so much
1:19.7	more than women can even imagine. So since I thought about sex quite often as a teen trying to
1:27.2	figure out what was going on, I just assumed that men thought about sex quite often as a teen trying to figure out what was going on,
