From the Bible

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7

The heavens declare the glory of God;
  the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
Psalm 19:1

Drawing straws is one way to settle a difficult case. Proverbs 18:18 (CEV) (other translations replace "drawing straws" with "casting lots" or even "casting dice"

I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:16–19

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:16

The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, and faith. Galatians 5:22 (HCSB)

Set your mind on things above, not on earthly things. Colossians 3:2

With God, all things are possible. Matthew 19:26b

Strong Wives - Bonny Burns Honeycomb & Spice - Chris Taylor Hot, Holy & Humorous - J. Parker


Marriage within the Christian faith encompasses the whole person-body, spirit, and mind. Sex Chat for Christian Wives exists in that sometimes tricky, always sacred intersection. Hosted by Bonny Burns, J Parker, and Chris Taylor, this is a conversation among friends who believe that sexual intimacy is a profound gift meant to be explored and enjoyed within a covenant marriage. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair to a candid kitchen-table talk, where laughter and grace are always welcome. You’ll hear them draw from scripture to frame a positive, theology-based view of sex, while also diving into remarkably practical advice for everyday married life. The discussions are grounded, addressing real questions and challenges with honesty and without shame. This podcast moves beyond vague principles to offer tangible tips and perspectives that can transform a couple's intimate connection. It’s a unique space where faith, health, and sexuality are woven together, affirming that spiritual and physical intimacy are beautifully and intentionally linked. Tune in for thoughtful, compassionate dialogue that empowers wives to embrace this dimension of their relationship with freedom and joy.
