Dr. Chelom Leavitt returns to Epic Marriage to discuss intimacy and sexuality in covenant relationships. Nick and Alex explore why disciples of Christ often struggle to connect spirituality with physical intimacy, and Dr. Leavitt explains how Satan distorts something designed to bond couples together.
In this episode of the Epic Marriage podcast, hosts Nick and Alex Leyva learn that emotional connection is the biggest contributing factor to meaningful sex, not physical technique or frequency. Dr. Leavitt challenges cultural messages about speeding up and increasing frequency, revealing these approaches cater only to male sexual response cycles. When couples slow down and become other-focused, both spouses report dramatically better experiences.
