Episode 266: Intimacy Beyond the Physical | Greg Coles and Julia Hedjuk

Hole In My Heart Podcast

Friday, August 28, 2026 - 52 minutes

Welcome back!! This is season TEN of the HIMH Podcast and we are starting with old and new friends of the podcast, Greg Coles and Julia Hedjuk. They wrote the book, Sexuality Beyond Sex. Oh my stars, this conversation helped us understand why God created us as sexual creatures—whether God calls us to marriage or singleness.

Why did he create us sexual if we don’t have sex?

How do “the rules” for our bodies play into this?

And what does this have to do with…communion???

And how does this relate to our theme of the season: community?

And, how do we pronounce the word “affianced”?? (Thanks @ Greg for making us feel smarter!)

Buckle up! This is a great conversation.
