In this episode, I read from my new book, Imbalances: The Addict's Guide to Fixing Our Broken Lives, Chapter 7--The Imbalance of Sex, Trust, and Intimacy. My apologies for not uploading a podcast episode last week, folks. I came down with some kind of nasty flu or virus that shifted to one of those horrid head colds. I had recorded my episode, but didn't have the energy or brain power to edit it. I start off by telling you all about my strange Thanksgiving, and then I start this chapter off by telling you a pretty juicy but amusing story about my teenage years when I got my first two jobs. They were doozies! But the moral of this story is understanding what's imablanced in our lives--especially in society as a whole-- with regard to sex, lust, and intimacy. Do you have the backbone and conviction to be held to a higher standard than what society (AKA "the enemy") deems acceptable?
If you want to learn more about how to have a more godly marriage, here is the link to the audiobook "Sacred Marriage: What if God Designed Marriage to Make Us More Holy Than to Make Us More Happy" by Gary Thomas, as mentioned in this episode.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
