Dr. Carol Tanksley was a recent guest on The Power of Purity Podcast (episodes 336 - 338). Tony had prepared a list of really good questions for that interview, but Tony and Dr. Carol never got around to any of those questions. In view of that, Dr. Carol has come back for this series of episodes (episode 340 - 343) to answer those questions. If you could ask Dr. Carol any question you could, what would you ask her? Here are just a few of the questions that Tony and Dr. Carol will discuss during this series:
What does a couple do if one person wants sex more thant the other person?
What do you do if your spouse doesn't want to have sex with you?
What if one person wants to experiment with some things in their sex life, but the other partner is uncomfortable with what their partner is interested in trying?
What's the difference between being willing to stretch your comfort zone sexually versus participating in something that would constitute a violation of your conscience or personhood?
Is masturbation a sin if you do not have sexual access to your spouse in the context of your marriage?
These are just a few of the many questions that Tony and Dr. Carol discuss during this series of episodes.

Podcast 339 – The Car Episode
What in the world does "The Car Episode" have to do with sexual purity?
In this episode Tony does something he’s never done before. He records an episode of the podcast as he’s driving down the highway in his car. The episode was spontaneously inspired after a text conversation with another person, of all things, concerning the topic of weight loss. In this episode Tony share 3 strategic factors that have worked together to help him loose 35 pounds and to get in better shape than he’s been in for years. Those 3 factors concern:
You might immediately think the first 2 factors make total sense. If a person begins to watch their diet and exercise, it will help them to loose weight and to get in better shape. But how in the world does writing psalms have anything to do with loosing weight and getting in better shape? If you’re interested in this idea, or at least curious, you’re welcome to listen to this episode of The Power of Purity Podcast.

28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV)
In this amazing interview with Dr. Carol Tanksley, Tony had prepared 24 various interview questions to discuss with Dr. Carol. From the very beginning of the interview the discussion took on a life of its own, and by the end of the interview Tony had not asked Dr. Carol even one of the questions he had prepared.
The interview was very spontaneous, lively, and unexpected.

In ths series of episodes Tony interviews author George Carneal on a wide range of various topics related to sexuality.
George Carneal, author of “From Queer to Christ," grew up in the ’70s, raised by a Southern Baptist minister in the ultra-conservative Bible Belt. For years he struggled with his Christian faith and a same-sex attraction. George shares his painful journey through a secular world at odds with homosexuality, in addition to a religious world that is hostile to homosexuals. Perhaps sharing his journey through the eyes, and mind, of a confused child dealing with a same-sex attraction will give some insight into the pain and difficulty of navigating these two worlds.
George would eventually spend 25 years immersed in the homosexual lifestyle (mostly in the Los Angeles club scene) and shares the pitfalls of that life. His story is not about glamorizing a life he once lived. This is merely his journey and what he learned along the way. Deliverance from that bondage is possible. There is hope in Christ!
George is a frequent speaker at churches, and conferences and has worked with pastors who are struggling with how to address the LGBT issue, with pastors and parents who are seeking guidance on how to help their LGBT children, as well as LGBT individuals who want out of that life.
George has also appeared on many different radio, podcast, and television broadcasts including The Christian Television Network, D. James Kennedy Ministries/Truths That Transform, and The Christian Broadcasting Network – CBN.
Tony interviewed George Carneal previously in episodes 212 - 215 of The Power of Purity Podcast.

The purpose of The Power of Purity Podcast concerns the topic of human sexuality.
What does it mean for us to experience and practice our sexual gift in a healthy way?
What does it mean for us to practice our sexual gift in a way that's honoring to God?
The answer to these questions, at least in part, concerns the context of relationship.
The reason for this is because our sexual gift is intended to be expressed and experienced within the context of a healthy relationship.
Said another way, it's a healthy relationship that creates the context for healthy sexuality, and because of that we need to do everything we can do to make our relationship as healthy as it can possibly be.
In this series Tony shares the single most important principal necessary for successful relationship. This principle is so important that it's absolutely non-negotiable. If people do not understand this principle, and submit to this principle, and practice this principle, and cooperate with this principle, their ability to experience successful relationship will be seriously hindered, compromised, and sabotaged.
In the same way a roofer must understand the reality of gravity, and function within the parameters of that reality, people in relationship must understand this non-negotiable relational principle. If a roofer violates the reality of gravity, he can be seriously harmed for such a violation, because he might fall off a roof and be seriously injured. And in much the same way, if people in relationship violate the non-negotiable relational principle that Tony's discusses in this series, their relationship will likely be seriously harmed.
The content of this series can be a steppingstone toward healthier relationship, and healthier relationship can be a steppingstone toward healthier sex.

If a roofer violates the reality of gravity, he can be seriously harmed for such a violation, because he might fall off a roof and be seriously injured. And in much the same way, if people in relationship violate the non-negotiable relational principle that Tony's discusses in this series, their relationship will likely be seriously harmed.
The content of this series can be a steppingstone toward healthier relationship, and healthier relationship can be a steppingstone toward healthier sex.
Welcome to... Happily Ever After!
Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Ephesians 5:21
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Matthew 22:37-40
Differentiation means that everybody get to be different. I get to be me, and you get to be you!
Kris Bishop is a good man with a good heart.
Although Kris became a Christian when he was a child, and he had a calling on his life to go into the ministry, and he preached his first sermon when he was in eight grade, he struggled deeply with an addiction to pornography for many years.
Kris thought that when he got married his problem with pornography would finally go away, but that didn't happen, and in fact his struggle with porn followed him into his marriage.
His wife, Jamie, caught him acting out many different times over the years, and each time her heart was deeply broken. Over the years that followed she became more and more discouraged at Kris's inability to change. Jamie struggled deeply with thoughts and feelings that something must be wrong with her because of her husband's problem with porn. The marriage slowly became defined by distance and disconnection, and Jamie eventually became involved in an affair with another man. When Kris finally learned of this affair, Jamie decided to leave him, and when she left it was the WAKE UP call that finally captured Kris's attention. He knew he had to change, or his marriage and family would be destroyed forever.
This began the healing journey that Kris & Jamie have now been walking on for over the past 10 years. Their story is remarkable, and Kris has had an amazing level of success in his walk of purity for over 10 years now.
Listen to this amazing story and be blessed.
