In this episode of The Briefcase and The Barn, Kyle and Gary take on two of the most avoided and misunderstood topics in Christian culture—tithing and sex. With honesty and humility, they explore not just how much to give or how often to be intimate, but the heart behind both. They share vulnerable reflections on pride, brokenness, and the daily choice to surrender, all while diving into Scripture’s guidance on generosity (2 Corinthians 9, Matthew 23) and intimacy in marriage (1 Corinthians 7).
The conversation also includes a deep dive into emotional health, fatherhood, and how a child’s view of their dad impacts their view of God. They reflect on how community, prayer, and self-awareness are keys to resisting isolation and pride. Candid, convicting, and laced with humor, this episode challenges listeners to lead with grace, talk about the hard stuff, and prioritize connection over comfort. Books mentioned include Money, Possessions & Eternity by Randy Alcorn and The Great Sex Rescue by Sheila Wray Gregoire.
