We are both sex and couples therapists in the Boston area. We both grew up in religious communities. While these contexts provided us with meaningful values of compassion and kindness, they did not prepare us for accessing sexuality and intimacy. What transpired was a beautiful process of unlearning shameful and fear-based messages about sexuality, relearning new and relational sexual patterns, and healing from the ways that our Christian communities got it wrong.You can follow Sexvangelicals on:Facebook     InstagramYou can find all things Sexvangelicals at their websiteLike and follow their podcast SexvangelicalsYou can connect with This Is Not Church on:Facebook     Instagram      Twitter     TikTok     YouTubeAlso check out our Linktree for all things This Is Not Church relatedPlease like and follow our Quoircast Partners:Heretic Happy Hour     Messy Spirituality     Apostates Anonymous    Second Cup with KeithIdeas Digest     The New Evangelicals     Snarky Faith Podcast     Wild Olive     Deadly FaithEach episode of This Is Not Church Podcast is expertly engineered by our producer The Podcast Doctor Eric Howell.
