When you treat your spouse with compassion, it creates a safe environment to share your deepest thoughts and feelings.
Emotional Intimacy
The blessing is what we all long for – acceptance and affirmation.
Your husband’s sex drive changes as he ages, and illness can also affect it. But an encouraging wife can make a big difference.
Thoughts and attitudes are like the engine of a train and our emotions and behavior are like the caboose.
Emotional affairs venture into dangerous territory. They may not lead to physical involvement, but can still devastate marriages.
Almost all marriages go through periods when the man has a lower sex drive than his wife. While these periods are disconcerting or frustrating, they pale in comparison to the pain and conflict caused when this is a couple’s consistent pattern of sexual intimacy.
You cannot underestimate how injurious it can be for your husband to find himself unable to perform sexually or to become the victim of a nonexistent libido.
Romance and infatuation may initially require little effort, but experiencing deep, long-lasting, intimate love requires a passionate pursuit.
Differing perspectives and fears about our imperfections can make Biblical intimacy challenging. Learn how to develop pure intimacy in your marriage through embracing your differences.
Many of us unknowingly bring a language of shame into our relationship. Find the grace and strength to make marriage a shame-free zone.
