Are You Still Friends With Your Spouse by The Marriage Coaches

Posted in Christianity, Life, Men, Romance and Relationships, Women | Comments Off

I often speak about the importance of friendship in initiating and developing strong intimate, romantic relationships. The article written by The Marriage Coaches confirms how friendship is KEY to maintaining healthy, prosperous, marriage relationships too. Please don’t underestimate the importance of friendship while interviewing/evaluating a potential mate for your life. The one thing worse than being unmarried is being married to WRONG person! I always ask myself if I can see myself being with a person on a deserted island ’til death do us part? If the answer is no…you may be selecting the wrong person.

I can’t wait to incorporate some of the ideas shared in this article when I get married :) . Please click the link below to read in its entirety:

My take: Why Christians are Criticizing My Christian Marriage and Sex Book by Mark Driscoll

Posted in Christianity, Life, Men, Romance and Relationships, Women | Comments Off

Is sex gross? Is sex a god? Is sex a gift?

Mark Driscoll published this article on cnn.com in response to the criticism he and his wife received from the release of their Christian marriage and sex book. I don’t have much insight on the history of the criticism of Mr. Driscoll. However, I do know that sex is one of the topics guaranteed to draw both support and hatred in the institution known as the church. Sex is one of the areas God spoke quite a bit about in the Bible because He knew it would be an area of trouble in the lives of men and women trying to live in a perverse world.

I have had the opportunity to teach workshops, classes, and deliver sermons in the area of sex, and have felt the blunt of many critics who disagree on my conservative or liberal approach depending on which end of the spectrum you fall on. At the end of the day, this is an area causing much strife in the church and every week unmarried people are attending weekly church services after having sexual escapades during the previous week. Married couples are attending weekly church services with the embarrassment of adulturous experiences and/or pink elephant absent sex lives which potentially lead to future divorces.

PUBLICE SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT TO PASTORS: Stop operating in the comfortable and be willing to deal with REAL LIFE ISSUES…#thatisall!!

Meet the Marriage Killer

Posted in Life, Romance and Relationships | Comments Off

Here is an article that was posted by the Wall Street Journal on Wednesday, January 25th. I wonder if both men and women can learn something from this insightful, well-written post by Elizabeth Bernstein. Do you speak the language of Nag? Do you give vague answers which cause your spouse or significant other to constantly have to remind you about _____________? We all play a part in how relationships function and develop so let’s be mindful to continuously learn and grow to become better.
