Buckle up—this conversation might just change how you read your Bible forever.

Monica Almaguer sits down with Bible scholar and sex educator Dr. Kevin Jenson, author of Sacred Not Sinful: A New Christian Sexual Ethic, for a raw, eye-opening deep dive into topics most churches won't touch: premarital sex, lust, masturbation, pornography, dead bedrooms, and the true meaning of biblical sexual ethics.

What if many of the "rules" you grew up with aren't actually in the Bible? Dr. Jenson unpacks the original Greek and Hebrew words that have been mistranslated or misunderstood for centuries:

Lust (epithumeia) — It's not just sexual desire; it's an overpowering, life-orienting desire to possess someone. Jesus wasn't banning arousal—He was warning against letting desire rule you.

Adultery — In biblical context, this was largely about property law and violating another man's "possession," not a blanket ban on all sex outside marriage.

Porneia (often translated "fornication" or "sexual immorality") — Far from meaning "premarital sex," its root is tied to "selling out" one's faithfulness—often to idols, money, or systems—instead of God. The modern idea of "sex outside marriage = sin" evolved much later through church tradition, not the original texts.

Together they explore:

Why purity culture creates impossible double standards, especially for young men flooded with testosterone.

How repressing sexual desire for decades doesn't flip a switch on your wedding night.

Why women often struggle more to embrace sexuality after years of "sex is bad until marriage" messaging.

Masturbation, pornography, and dead bedrooms: When might self-pleasure actually be the more loving, ethical choice?

The radical progression in Scripture toward mutual authority in marriage (1 Corinthians 7) and elevating women's status.

How shame, control, and lack of education turn God's gift of sexuality into a source of pain.

This isn't about liberal vs. conservative—it's about returning to what the Bible actually says, in its historical and linguistic context, and asking: How can sexuality become sacred, not sinful?

If you've ever felt shame, confusion, or frustration about faith and sexuality, this episode is for you.

Is your sex life “technically” okay (1-3 times a week) but it still feels… off?

Your wife says yes, but you can tell she’s not really into it. No real hunger, no enthusiasm, just “being a good wife.” You’re not crazy — and your marriage isn’t doomed. This is one of the most common complaints I hear from

husbands right now.

In this video I break down the 5 real reasons your wife’s sexual enthusiasm is low — and exactly what you can do about each one:

The massive testosterone gap (why biology is NOT on your side)

The season of life you’re in (kids, stress, menopause)

Why she doesn’t see herself as a sexual person

The hidden judgment that kills her desire

How to make sex with you the easiest, hottest choice she can make

This isn’t generic relationship advice. It’s straight talk on hormones, the honeymoon phase, purity culture damage, polarity, and how to actually awaken her wild side — without pressure, guilt, or begging.

If you’re tired of feeling like you’re the only one who wants great sex in your marriage, watch this. Your wife’s low desire is NOT a reflection of how much she loves you — but it CAN be changed.

In this raw, no-BS conversation, male performance coach Mike Sartain (founder of Men of Action) joins the show to break down why so many men become complacent after marriage—and how to reverse it before it's too late. We dive deep into:

Why men's testosterone levels plummet in marriage (and skyrocket after divorce) — and why TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) after age 35 could save more marriages than counseling ever will.

The evolutionary truth about leadership, boundaries, and frame: Doing everything your wife asks doesn't earn loyalty—it breeds resentment and cheating. Learn why presenting a unified front in public, enforcing real boundaries (no other men touching her intimately, no public disrespect), and refusing baseless accusations is essential.

Modern dating disasters: Smartphones + TikTok/Instagram addiction (especially post-1995 generation), dating apps, porn, and the disappearance of attractive women in nightlife have ruined the game. Women swipe away anything that doesn't spark instant dopamine—don't let that mindset enter your marriage.

Why "nice guy" tendencies kill attraction: Avoiding confrontation creates bigger conflict. Lead decisively (e.g., "We're going to Toko Madera at 9 PM—be ready"), handle emotional tests calmly, and stop apologizing for other women finding you attractive (preselection works!).

The double standard no one talks about: What turns men on (physical attraction) vs. what turns women on (status, leadership, respect). Good advice gets labeled "toxic" because it works—pandering gurus (Chris GQ Perry, etc.) just sell lies.

Practical fixes: Get on TRT if needed (aim 700-900 ng/dL), lift heavy, stay lean (bench your bodyweight or risk divorce), have frequent sex (it's the glue), and support her glow-up while maintaining your edge. Obesity and low T are the real marriage killers—not "energy" or "vibes."

If you're a married man feeling the spark fade, getting fat, passive, or disrespected—this is the wake-up call. Mike's military-style, technique-driven approach (inspired by Jocko/David Goggins but applied to dating & relationships) has helped thousands of high-achieving men reclaim their masculinity.

3:45 – Why men enter through "dating" but need leadership most

25:40 – Leading decisively vs. endless "what do you want?" questions

32:15 – Respect for men = quelling rage & no sarcasm/attacks

38:00 – Pandering gurus vs. real evolutionary advice (why good advice gets called toxic)

Red Pill philosophy has provided millions of men with eye-opening truths about attraction, dating, and gender dynamics by rejecting mainstream romantic ideals like "just be yourself" and "true love conquers all." However, as a woman deeply familiar with the Red Pill community, I believe several widely repeated ideas are overstated, incomplete, or entirely incorrect when applied to real-world relationships.

In this video, I break down four of the most popular Red Pill concepts that often mislead men about women's nature, long-term relationships, and marriage.

This discussion offers a balanced, pragmatic perspective — combining Red Pill realism with deeper contextual understanding (think Red Pill philosophy blended with timeless biblical wisdom) — to help men better navigate relationships without falling into extremes or cynicism.

Key topics covered:

Why "genuine burning desire" alone does not explain every case of declining female libido in marriage

How hypergamy is not exclusively a female trait — men exhibit their own version focused on different priorities

The myth that a man must be 6 feet tall to succeed in dating, and why dating apps create a distorted reality

Why dismissing marriage as too risky ignores its profound benefits for men, women, children, and society

Timestamps:

0:00 - Introduction: The importance of understanding women's nature in modern relationships

1:45 - Origins of the Red Pill concept from The Matrix and its application to dating

3:20 - My personal philosophy: Red Pill realism combined with biblical principles

5:10 - Myth #1: Genuine Burning Desire Is Everything (Why low libido is multifaceted — hormones, motherhood, medications, affection, trauma, and more)

9:45 - Key questions to diagnose the real root causes of desire changes in marriage

14:30 - Myth #2: Hypergamy Is Exclusively a Female Trait (Both genders seek higher value — women in multifaceted ways, men often prioritizing youth, beauty, and femininity)

19:15 - Myth #3: You Must Be 6 Feet Tall or You're Doomed (Dating app filters vs. real-life success — average U.S. male height is approximately 5'9", and confidence, charisma, and connection matter far more)

24:00 - Myth #4: Marriage Isn't Worth It / Too Risky for Men (Examining the alternatives — plate spinning, opting out — and why committed marriage remains the best path for deep intimacy, family stability, and raising children)

29:45 - Conclusion: Moving beyond fear-based advice toward practical skills, risk mitigation, and embracing the human need for deep connection

If you are a man currently in a relationship or hoping to build one, this video provides essential context to avoid common pitfalls while appreciating the valuable truths the Red Pill community does get right.
