Yet so many couples struggle and feel isolated when they have varying sex drives from one another. One spouse is typically labeled as "high drive" and the other is "low drive". But should we even be using the term high and low drive? Could it turn into a label that can potentially carry identity?

THE BIG QUESTION: Is your marriage reflecting Jesus’ love to those around you? If you’re unsure of how to answer that question, I think it’s time to do some heart work. Think about it! You and your spouse were put together for a purpose. You each individually have a specific calling and gifts that were given to you and passions that get you fired up. So then, when you put those gifts, callings, and passions and combine them with your spouses- you become a powerhouse for Jesus! So tune in as Alana and Rusti chat through what it looks like to have a marriage on mission! (Part two of this conversation will be coming next week!)

Does your sexuality need a life preserver? Has purity culture, church culture, LACK of of information, or trauma creeped its way into your sex life and you feel like you're about to drown?

We’ve done an episode on “spicing it up” in the bedroom before, but now that we’ve got Rusti here and since it’s been a long time since that episode came out (fun fact, that was our 4th episode to be released) it seemed like a good time to make a “spice it up 2.0”! If you’ve been married for any length of time you’ll know that sex can easily become routine. We’re busy people! The list of things to do is never ceasing and ever growing- we need to pick kids up from school, take out the trash, get food on the table, spring clean, and see friends… so when there is a spare moment to be intimate it can easily turn into a 10 step list of things you do every time. And a routine can be great, but maybe you’re ready to try something different or long to add some fireworks and butterflies again! So we’ve compiled a little list of some ways that you can go about spicing things up! If you're not, be sure to follow us on Instagram @kingdomsexuality! That's where you'll see weekly couples challenges, "Hump Day" sex positions, connect questions and so much more! Link to our ebook: HERE Learn more about your ad choices.

Recently on our Instagram Rusti shared a handful of hindrances very briefly that could impede us from that body shuttering, skin tingling, hair raising prize.

We absolutely want to preface this with the fact that we will be discussing sexual trauma a bit and so this is a trigger warning in case you are still going through your healing. We want to be sensitive to those listening who are working through trauma, so the KS Team wanted to make sure you had ample warning! Follow us on Instagram @kingdomsexuality to join the community!

It’s about time the KS team did an episode solely on this topic! We’re not sure why it seems to happen this way, but there is this switch that so many of us come across as newlyweds.

That’s a big switch to flip!! So tune in as Alana and Rusti tackle this big topic! Links from today’s episode: @loveyourfirstyear Find our ebook on our website: www.kingdomsexualityministry.com!

We put a questions box in our Instagram stories asking for some "Get To Know Us" questions and we got SO many incredible ones! A good bulk of the questions were around how the podcast came to be, why we started this, and why we want to talk about sexual intimacy! So we decided a nice way to tackle all of those questions was to give our testimonies... with a twist. Cue... our SEX-TIMONIES! *This episode has been re-recorded to better reflect where the Kingdom Sexuality Podcast is today.
