    I just want to say, before I even watch this video I already appreciate this conversation and all these conversations with your podcast because nobody really talks about this at all!! I really love yall and appreciate yall!

      We appreciate you. Our hope is that whoever watches/listens to us is able to take something away from our experiences

    I think it’s important to teach kids the why behind waiting until marriage for sex. We often heard in church growing up not to but not really why?!?! Learning and teaching about soul ties is very important. Yes I also agree transparency is very important as well.

    Sometimes, "intentions" aren't enough. Everybody can "intent to" but you have to be disciplined enough to just not do what you "intent" or just do what you want to do.

    This was so good and relatable. I respect the honesty. Hate that sex is such a whispered topic in church. Yall are super dope!

    I love that yall are having this conversation. I can appreciate that my pastor has taught series on sex within marriage and outside of it. He talked about sex inside of marriage being a beautiful thing and I think some people were shocked but he was telling the truth! You’re right, a lot of people only talk about it as being bad and then when you’re married it’s supposed to be good all of a sudden. That’s super confusing and difficult to navigate for a lot of people but I appreciate when Christians have conversations about it because it’s important!

    This was a great episode! Thanks for being transparent…I literally thought you guys waited until marriage as well. You’re absolutely right…s** shouldn’t be villainized because it’ll only make you want to do it more. I’d rather my son be able to come to be and tell me when he’s done it or thinking about doing it so we can take the proper precautions.

    • @sipsofsuccesspodcast
      @sipsofsuccesspodcast  6 месяцев назад +2

      Yes a lot of people think we did and we were virgins for a long time but we realized there is really no shame in it and at the end of the day what was done was done. Fortunately for us, we were able to go on the journey together and learn how
      To get to a place of comfort with this topic.

    I looooove the transparency of this episode. It’s so important to have these conversations in our community

  • @lifewiththeodums
    @lifewiththeodums 6 месяцев назад +3

    Really good conversation! We did wait to have sex until marriage but we were not virgins before marriage. I can still remember the day I realized that my mom (who had been a teen mom) was more concerned about me not getting pregnant as a teen than she was about me not having sex. In my mind I went “so teeeeeechnically” I can have sex as long as I don’t get pregnant 👀
    Though we both grew up Christian the reasoning behind why the Bible calls us to abstain before marriage was never taught…to y’all’s point.
    Looking forward to the Christian community growing in this area and having more of the needed conversations!

    I have been with my spouse for almost 13 years and married almost 7, and I can say that the mental switch just doesnt happen. There are times that I feel like it comes back up. And when I got pregnant and the world saw me, I was embarrassed that everyone knew. And I felt like I had to make sure that my ring was visible at all times, so the judgment wasnt, I have sex and im unwed. The church/society has really done a disservice with this one.

    • @sipsofsuccesspodcast
      @sipsofsuccesspodcast  6 месяцев назад +1

      This is exactly our thoughts and what we really believe a lot of us go through. Do the two you do anything to make it better for you?

  • @Trice_Marie84
    @Trice_Marie84 6 месяцев назад +4

    I completely agree with Erin. The emotional connection is better and makes sex better. And I agree with Cam that sex isn’t everything and not what will keep a marriage forever

    I don’t know how I missed this video, but I’m glad I clicked on it. Firstly, because I always thought you two were virgins for the reasons you said (christianity). But now knowing that you weren’t, it’s ok. This was as good talk, I wasn’t expecting to be so informed. I have a teenage who I now feel better about having a honest sex talk.

    • @sipsofsuccesspodcast
      @sipsofsuccesspodcast  5 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, most people think we are. Granted we waited a long time. But this is a reason we decided to create this platform to o be transparent but from an angle the some may not be use too with hope that it can encourage and or inspire who’s listening.

    First of all, shout out to Detroit! I was born and raised there for 25 years! 🏙️ I appreciate you two discussing this topic. My husband and I have a lot of in depth discussions on this and have prior to getting married. We both grew up in Christian households, mine more strict than his. I do wish my parents were more open on sex conversations but I’m learning how to change that when my husband and I decide to have children. 🥰

  • @mrs.shawnagray
    @mrs.shawnagray 6 месяцев назад +1

    And I agree with you again Erin about teaching the kids the same way about sex. Whether you had sex before marriage or even had kids out of wedlock. If I’m honest that was difficult to talk about with our kids but we learned and it was easy then we thought.

    Thank you for sharing. I appreciate your vulnerability to speak on this topic. We need to open up this conversation more and more.

  • @clea2603
    @clea2603 6 месяцев назад +2

    To me, it's more about being educated about sex more so than "abstaining" from sex. Sex wasn't talked about when I was growing up so guess who I heard it from, my peers, who didn't know any more than I knew. So, when my stepdaughter decided she wanted to live with us at the age of 12, I held nothing back. We had so many conversations about sex, more than she wanted to hear. However, I wanted her to be as knowledgeable as possible. I didn't sugarcoat the conversation with her because I wanted her to make a conscious decision when faced with that. Later I found out that it worked because she didn't lose her virginity until the age of 19 (in college).

      @sipsofsuccesspodcast  6 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you so much! We want to be able to give the real on our life experiences. We know that we aren’t the only ones who have to make decisions like such.

  • @MsLiyah2015
    @MsLiyah2015 6 месяцев назад

    I really appreciate this conversation. We're all human and it's human nature to be curious about it and want to experience it, married or Christian or not. I think sex definitely needs to be talked about differently.

    For anyone reading this who feels like they can't go back once you started. You can, it may feel difficult but you can... Seek spiritual guidance from your Pastor in a bible based Church. They will teach you scriptures on why sex before marriage isn't encouraged. The Bible (our manual for life) clearly states that sex is an act designed by God to consummate a marriage (a holy institution designed to bring two people together to become one)... but the world adopted Satan's perverse way of sex, with all these ideologies about it... The same way people learnt how to have sex with each other outside a marriage is the same way you will learn within the marriage...
    The Church in my opinion is clear, we as individuals just need to take heed to the teachings. If you claim to believe something and don't understand it, you are bound to forget it when something seemingly great comes along.
    My encouragement is study and know God's word about all issues of life, it will help you know how to live the Christian life... and revelation is progressive, so kindly take time to know God.
    Thank you for allowing me to share my thoughts on this matter.

    One thing I’ve experienced growing up in a Christian home, was that the topic of sex was sooo taboo. If I mentioned the word sex, they made me feel like I was for sure going to hell 😂I can’t wait to break that generational cycle with our kids! It’s important to create a safe space to talk about sex, so that open and honest conversations can happen! Good talk y’all!

    When you get a taste of something good or something you like you do/try it again. Those things make you feel good, or makes you happy or give you a sense of satisfaction

  • @Gabrielle727

    I kind of agree with Cam. I have had male friends I’m comparable with, but would never date them because I’m not attracted to them. I feel like being attracted to someone makes you want to keep doing things to improve the relationship. If anything changes in the personality or compatibility, you have nothing left. I’d ultimately want neither, but that’s my answer.

    Ok, o.k. You are both so cute together and communicate so well between yourselves as well as you audience. I suddenly caught myself thinking of Oprah. And here I am agin thinking that you need your own talk show Erin. Carry the torch and start interviewing people in a variety of professions and people who have overcome struggles etc. 🌞💐🌹🌷🐾🦮p.s. where is your dog? Would be nice to see on set more.

    Heavy on the no double standards when raising boys and girls! It's not only not fair it's not biblical. A lot of christians have raised their kids like that as if the bible says fornication is only wrong for women lol

    Hey guys! I definitely appreciate your transparency. Funny enough I just saw a sermon on Sunday where the pastor talked about a lot of what you covered in the video (i.e - feeling shame, trying to be intentional about abstaining but falling short, the churches response to sex vs society's response to sex, etc.)
    I think his message will bless you and validate a lot of what you may have felt in the past. Plus, he's hilarious too lol. Enjoy! ✨ruclips.net/user/livePpQhvqs4viU?si=smBMm8agKnbTA6QG

    Yeah the church is awkward about the details of sex. They love to talk about it broadly and sparingly as if the church isn’t mostly sexually active. I think the onus is on adults to educate themselves and their children on the topic. I personally don’t wanna talk to my pastor and his wife about the sky being the limit in the marital bed.. it’s not a lesson I need from them. Solomon and 1 Corinthians 7 should’ve told us all we needed to know lol. But the anxiety that young wives suffer pertaining to sex is real

  • @Joy-kl6fz
    @Joy-kl6fz 5 месяцев назад

    There is no condemnation if you have done it before marriage. Please read the Bible for yourself and renew your mind. On judgment day, God will not ask the church why you were not living a righteous life but you will be held accountable for your own life. The word of God is the standard and it never changes.

  • @какое-то_мурло
    @какое-то_мурло 6 месяцев назад

    I didn't have sex before marriage, I didn't have sex after marriage. Because I didn't have marriage and I didn't have any sex at all. I've already been thinking about why this happened. I have found many reasons and explanations. But then I realized that there is only one true reason and this is masturbation. Yes, all this years I adored masturbation and she reciprocated my feelings. Our idyll lasted until the age of forty, but after forty, something changed. I still really love masturbation, but it looks like she doesn't love me anymore. Sometimes I jеrking and jеrking оff all day long and all to no avail. I don't feel any satisfaction. What should I do now? How can I get my old feelings back?
    I also want to thank you guys for this channel. I look forward to every episode. You are my favorite youtubers now.
