Mentorship with Joyce and Clifford Penner (#162)

Let’s lean in and glean wisdom from pioneers in sexual discipleship, Dr. Clifford and Joyce Penner. The Penners offer both theologically sound and practical wisdom on sexuality, pleasure, desire and growing a thriving sex life throughout your marriage. In today’s conversation we talk about:

• Importance of education, understanding and communication

• Creating a marvelous sex life

• Intentionality and keeping your sex life alive through the seasons and stages of marriage

• Healing and growing from shame and feeling “shut down” and disconnected from desire and sexuality

• Finding the sweet spot in your marriage to build connection and a thriving sex life.
