Summary
His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’ Matthew 25
When you think about the parable of the talents your mind instantly gravitates toward stewarding your finances, your gifts, or even your health. But, have you ever thought about the faithfulness that might flow from stewarding your sexuality?
We get to steward the gift of our sexuality, with purpose and intention over the course of our life. And, faithfulness brings great benefits,including the unity that leads to fruitfulness within the context of marriage. Sex is not a duty, not a chore, not something to check off your list. It is something to enjoy, to pursue, to delight and to receive great pleasure.
Let’s learn a fresh viewpoint on stewardship and experience the joy of our Master.

| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, this is Francie. Thanks for coming back. Today I'm opening up with a testimony from a listener. |
| 0:09.9 | She says, hey, Francie, I just wanted to say that your podcast has blessed me so much. I just started listening to you |
| 0:15.4 | because my future sister-in-law shared with me about your podcast. You have completely changed my mindset and |
| 0:21.7 | given me such encouragement for my marriage and intimacy with my future husband. Thank you for |
| 0:26.6 | creating this podcast and sharing all of your knowledge that you've learned. I was guilty of |
| 0:30.7 | thinking that I needed the emotional connection before I could enjoy the physical connection. |
| 0:36.0 | And I've learned so much from you and viewed sex as more of a blessing from God to unite with my future husband rather than a task or chore that I need to do to please him. |
| 0:45.3 | Thank you. There are no words to describe how thankful I am for this podcast. I know my future husband will feel blessed by this too. God bless you. |
| 0:53.3 | I'm so encouraged. She |
| 0:54.7 | emailed me back later and she said that the wedding is in April. So we can all be praying for her |
| 0:59.9 | and her future husband now and God would bless their union. And what I want to emphasize in this |
| 1:06.5 | episode today is this idea of debunking the myth that sex is a something you have to have |
| 1:13.6 | after emotional connection because truly our sexual experience and our emotional experience |
| 1:19.9 | they're just like interconnected like a web you don't have one and then the other they build |
| 1:25.0 | on each other and they complement each other and they feed off of |
| 1:29.0 | each other. And really sexual intimacy is based less on immediate desire and more on a decision |
| 1:36.6 | for connection. And that is the celebration is that you lean in and you celebrate God's design |
| 1:42.3 | and the benefits can be greater emotional connection after |
| 1:45.7 | that feed into emotional connection before and it becomes this beautiful circular gift that feeds |
| 1:53.2 | off of each other the different elements of our relationship and so I want to just kind of |
| 1:59.5 | encourage this listener that she's got a right track on that. |
| 2:02.9 | And the other thing I just want to point out is this reality that so often we've seen sex as a duty and a chore. |
