Hey Friend! Let’s be real—when it comes to sex, especially oral sex, a lot of people feel awkward, unsure, or downright freaked out. Whether it’s something you’ve never talked about or something that brings up guilt, confusion, or curiosity, this episode is a safe space to explore it all.

As a certified sex therapist, Josh is here with Cassie to help couples find true freedom and intimacy—including in the areas that feel the most taboo. In today’s episode, they tackle the stigma, the shame, and the silence around oral sex in Christian marriage.

Join us as we discuss:

• What Scripture does (and doesn’t) say about oral sex
• Why your past and culture may have shaped your views on it
• How to reframe your mindset and experience more freedom and connection with your spouse

This conversation is for married couples who want to grow in trust, tenderness, and pleasure—without carrying shame. You’re not broken or weird if oral sex feels confusing or off-limits.

Real intimacy includes honest conversations, emotional safety, and playful exploration, so take courage, and get curious about what the Lord may have for you in this part of your sex life!
