Episode Overview
- Sexual attraction should be cultivated within marriage.
- Objectification leads to destructive relationships.
- Biblical counselling can aid in overcoming addiction.
- Selfless love honours God's design for relationships.

Sexual attraction is to be formed in the context of the marriage relationship.
In this episode of The Addiction Connection Podcast, Jay Younts joins hosts Dr. Mark E. Shaw, CJ McMurry, and Jim Quigley to tackle the complex issues surrounding sexual attraction and pornography. Jay Younts, known for his biblical teachings on his YouTube channel Everyday Talk, brings a wealth of knowledge to the discussion, starting with the biblical foundation of sexual union from Ephesians.
He highlights the importance of understanding God's design for sex within marriage, emphasising that it's meant to be shared between a man and a woman in a committed relationship. Younts argues that societal norms have distorted this design, leading to widespread issues such as pornography addiction and objectification. The conversation takes a deep dive into how these challenges affect both young and old, with statistics showing alarming levels of pornography consumption across age groups.
Younts uses Solomon's wisdom from Proverbs to underline the importance of being captivated by one's spouse rather than succumbing to cultural pressures. The hosts and Younts also discuss how turning God's blessings into self-serving desires can lead to destruction. Throughout the episode, listeners are encouraged to rethink their approach to relationships and sex, advocating for a shift from self-centred desires to selfless love that honours God.
Younts offers practical advice on overcoming addiction through biblical counselling and accountability within the church community. This episode is not just a conversation about rules but an invitation to experience true relational love as intended by God. If you're seeking insights into how biblical teachings can transform your understanding of sexuality and relationships, this episode offers a compelling perspective. Will you consider what it means to truly honour God in your relationships?
