434: The Emotional Maturity Epidemic: Stephen Chandler on Sex, Shame, and Spiritual Dysfunction in Relationships
Manage episode 474770281 series 2552400
We’re in a relationship crisis. Everyone’s talking about chemistry and compatibility, but no one’s talking about maturity. And when emotional immaturity meets unaddressed shame, sexual frustration, and spiritual avoidance? It’s a recipe for dysfunction.
This week, Stephen Chandler joins Win Today to kick off a hard-hitting four-week series on relationships. In this conversation, we’re getting real about the deeper issues driving relational pain—and why surface-level fixes don’t work.
Stephen unpacks:
- Why emotional immaturity is sabotaging modern relationships
- How sexual frustration creates silent fractures in marriages
- The role shame plays in both intimacy and avoidance
- The subtle ways we use spiritual language to hide dysfunction
This isn’t another “five tips for better communication” episode. It’s a wake-up call. Whether you’re dating, married, engaged, or trying to get back into the relationship game, this conversation will expose the patterns keeping you stuck—and invite you into a maturity that transforms everything.
