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.
Next Steps:
• Their book, Sexuality Beyond Sex here.
• We talk about An Impossible Marriage here.
• Join the HIMH Pod FB Group here.
• Ask Laurie a Q on IG here.
• Watch here.

Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare about the Lord: he alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him.
