Welcome to "Sex and Sensuality for the Churchy," the podcast where we explore topics related to sex, love, and relationships in the context of faith and spirituality. In this episode, we will be discussing some recent headlines that have caught our attention.
First up, we'll be delving into the controversial documentary, "Freaknik: The Wildest Party Never Told" This documentary takes a deep dive into the history of Freaknik, an annual spring break party for HBCU students that was held in Atlanta during the 80s and 90s. We'll be discussing the impact of this party on black culture, sexuality, and music, and exploring the controversy surrounding its upcoming release.
Next, while there's a lot of fear around the release of Freaknik we'll be addressing the issue of sex abuse scandals in the church that are often covered up. Unfortunately, this is a topic that has come up time and time again, and we'll be discussing why it's so important for religious institutions to address these issues head-on and create a safe space for victims to come forward.
Finally, we'll be discussing the case of Moroccan footballer Achraf Hakimi's divorce settlement. Despite his ex-wife reportedly asking for half of his fortune, she received nothing because Achraf's wealth is mostly in his mother's name. This brings up the question of how our relationship with our mother often impacts our romantic relationships in adulthood.
Join us for this thought-provoking episode as we explore these headlines and the impact they have on sex and sensuality in the church.

Continuing the conversation from last week, we continue to delve into the often-misunderstood phrase from the New Testament, "It's better to marry than to burn." Our host LuzCelenia shares a personal story about a church leader who used this phrase to justify his decision to get married, but what started as an explanation proved to foreshadow a pattern of grooming and sexual harassment towards LuzCelenia and other college kids in the parachurch college organization. In this conversation, we delve into how these scriptural tropes only aid in oversexualizing each other and how the phrase has been used to harm both men and women. Don't miss this powerful and thought-provoking episode!

In this episode of Sex and Sensuality for the Churchy, we delve into the often-misunderstood phrase from the New Testament, "It's better to marry than to burn." While this verse has been used to promote abstinence and chastity, it's also been taken out of context, leading to harmful and damaging attitudes toward sex and marriage. Our host LuzCelenia shares a personal story about a church leader who used this phrase to justify his decision to get married, but what started as an explanation led to a pattern of grooming and sexual harassment towards LuzCelenia and other college kids in this para-church college organization. Through her experience, we see how this phrase has been used to harm both men and women. Join us as we explore the true meaning of this verse and how it perpetuates harmful ideals about sex and marriage. Don't miss this powerful and thought-provoking episode!

Power dynamics are present in every relationship, and romantic relationships are no exception. In fact, power struggles can often arise in intimate relationships, as each partner tries to negotiate their needs and desires. But what exactly is power in a relationship, and how does it affect the individuals involved?
In this episode, we explore the role of power in romantic relationships. We discuss the different types of power that can exist between partners, including emotional, financial, and physical power. We also examine how power can shift over time, as individuals gain or lose control in different aspects of the relationship.

Welcome to episode 11 of Sex and Sensuality for the Churchy, where we’ll be discussing unrealistic expectations in relationships and the dangers they can bring.
Many people enter into relationships with certain expectations, whether it be about love, trust, communication, or even material possessions. While it’s natural to have expectations in any relationship, the problem arises when these expectations become unrealistic.
Unrealistic expectations can come in many forms, such as expecting your partner to meet all your emotional needs or expecting them to always know what you’re thinking. These types of expectations can put a significant strain on any relationship and often lead to disappointment, frustration, and even resentment.
So, how do we avoid having unrealistic expectations in our relationships? One key is to communicate openly and honestly with our partners about our needs and wants. It’s important to understand that our partners are not mind-readers and cannot always meet our every expectation.
Another important step is to let go of the idea of perfection. No one is perfect, and no relationship is without its flaws. Accepting imperfection can help us approach our relationships with more realistic expectations and a greater sense of understanding and empathy.

We delve into the various reasons why people may need to heal emotionally, including trauma, past experiences, and difficult relationships and the impact that our emotional immaturity has on us including romanticizing seeing our Christian brothers in worship, believing that women are inherently more attached than men and that men are inherently less detached than women.In this podcast episode, we explore the topic of emotional healing in romantic relationships and why it is important for our well-being.

Are you familiar with the scripture Mathew 16:24, "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me"?
How was that taught when you heard it? Too often we are told we have to sacrifice for the church, our partners, our children, our parents, our jobs, etc., and this scripture is used to justify giving of ourselves even to the point of extreme pain and call it love.
Is that what the scripture means? Why are you martyring yourself?

Does it matter if your partner can't give it to you? Where's the line? Are we asking for too much or not enough?
