    Sex & Social Media
    Jul 10 2025
    Today, we talk about how social media influences our view of sex, both good and bad, and how to be more intentional with our engagement. Sponsor Mismatched desire in your marriage? Let’s talk about what it means, why it happens, and how to grow closer through it. Sign up for our new masterclass today! Sexual Desire Differences - Sex Chat for Christian Wives From the Bible You say, ‘I have the right to do anything.’ But not everything is helpful. Again you say, ‘I have the right to do anything.’ But not everything builds us up.” 1 Corinthians 10:23 (NLT) Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Proverbs 4:23 The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. Proverbs 12:18 "But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.” Matthew 12:36–37 Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone. Colossians 4:6 With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be. James 3:9–10 “I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything”—but I will not be mastered by anything. 1 Corinthians 6:12 Resources For Christian Wives Facebook PageStrong Wives Facebook PageStrong Wives Instagram PageHoneycomb & Spice Facebook PageHot, Holy & Humorous Facebook PageHot, Holy & Humorous Instagram PageDo You Check Your Phone During Sex? - Hot, Holy & HumorousGet Off Your Screen & Have Sex with Your Wife - Hot, Holy & Humorous (written for husbands, but we wives could learn a thing or two here as well!)Higher Desire Wives Community Thanks for joining us at the virtual kitchen table for another great chat!
