What Sex Act Can I not do in a Christian Marriage?
In my opinion, the door is open to a committed husband and wife in a marriage. There are a few factors the husband and wife should consider: they should communicate their sexual desires to one another; also, one of the spouses should not feel pressured into doing something that is unwanted. I must add that you need to spice things up in the bedroom within your marriage every now and then to keep things exciting. Unfortunately, in some cases where a spouse is bored in the bedroom, affairs outside the marriage may happen. Remember no one likes old bread or stale fries. In other words, keep your bedroom full of fresh excitement within your marriage.

Excerpt of "New Sheets" by T. Charles Brantley
Another issue is when Christian wives are jealous of worldly wives who enjoy the passions of their husbands' loins, while these Christian wives stay in unsatisfied unions. Dare I say it is time to take back everything the devil took. Stop lying to yourself and start enjoying one another to the fullest.
Due to fornication, married couples bring a truckload of sexual issues into the bedroom. Within this truckload, one may experience hurts from sex. This is why God forbade sex before marriage. When a person has sex before marriage, that person brings in issues that should never have accrued before the marriage. Therefore, couples have to first get beyond their former un-married flings so that they can FINALLY deal with each other sexually.
Sex is always there, and since some couples are talking about it without direction, they have great frustration because they can't agree on the hows and whens.

How do you deal with Step Children?
Sometimes stepchildren may vent their anger because they do not have their birth mother or father living with them. In such a case, it is important to keep a strong marriage full of love and communication. When the husband and wife are on such an accord of unity, the children or stepchildren will fall in line. Children are good at observing their parent's problems within the marriage. Problems and issues will arise in the marriage; however, it is important that the children can see that problems can be worked out. Spouses working out their problems are good examples to their children on how a loving relationship should work. In regards to disciplining the children, both husband and wife should be on the same page. In addition, if the parents are more of an encourager than a disciplinarian to the children, it is more likely that the parents would have a better rapport with them.

Remember In the Book of Ecclesiastes chapter 4 and verse 12 (Bible) "And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken."
TRANSLATION (With only husband and wife the commitment can easily fail, but with God, husband, and wife the cord of commitment is not quickly broken.)

Is there such a thing as too much sex?
When you are married and having sex like rabbits, all is cool just as long as issues are still being discussed. When sex is the main course of the day and not communication, then you are having too much sex. In point, most husbands would love sex everyday and most wives would love communication everyday. I advise the married couple to find a compromise between the two. |

Using sex as a weapon; Is it Right ?
This is wrong on all fronts. According to the Bible, the wife's body does not belong to her while the husband's body does not belong to him; their bodies belong to each other. When married couples understand this, they are less likely to put each other on sexual-strike. In regards to sex, the spouse who is least interested in sex must make the effort to dedicate some sexual time within the marriage. It is always frustrating for one spouse to keep asking for sex while the other spouse just sits there like an inanimate-doll. Remember, within the marriage communication is important, so is sex. This will never change. |
I hate going to the mall; do I have to go with her pastor ?
Most men are not into shopping for many long hours. However, men must remember that the relationship consists of ups and downs; it consists of things you enjoy and things you may dislike. Being unselfish and sacrificing your time for her is key. When you don't do for your wife, then your wife may not do for you. So men, in essence, the mall time is not for you; it is for her. When you understand that being married contains unselfish sacrifice, then you will start to give into things that you may not enjoy at times for the sake of your wife.

I love making love to my husband but he seems distant; what is wrong?
If a man is refusing sex from his wife, there is a problem. In this case, the wife should ask him what is wrong. If he is refusing to give his wife good loving, he is probably hiding something or some other major issue may be on his mind. Wives, you should know that sex is a GREAT indicator of where your man is at. If you touch your man and he does not respond, then it may be a sign that something else is cooking (such as an affair or a medical problem affecting him sexually). He must reveal the problem in order to have an opportunity to solve the problem

Try A Church With An Edge!
Suggested Reverse-side text: Are you tired of playing it safe in life? If you're ready to try something new, come visit a church that's willing to take a few risks too. At Restoration Springs, you'll find a band instead of a choir, video projectors instead of hymnals, and messages that deal with real life issues. We know it isn't easy to try something new but we hope you'll take the challenge. You'll be glad you did.

Excerpt from "Real Men Don't Have Closets" by T. Charles Brantley
Throughout this book, you will hear the word "truth." It is because for too long men have lived in lies. The hardest thing for men to do is speak the truth. I know there may be brothers who say, "What about my wife?" This book is about men. And, in reality, brothers, if you live it, your wife will follow. Remember the quote: "If you build it, they will come"? Well, brothers, if you speak the truth, your respective wives will follow correctly.
In our minds, we would rather think what we are going to say when our wives confront us. This is the groundbreaking for a lie. Truth does not need rehearsals. Truth can stand on its own. Even again, if your wife leaves you, at least you can say she left for the truth's sake and not lies.

Excerpt from "Successful Marriages for Successful Men" by T. Charles Brantley
Don't Just Say Sorry Without Feeling Her Pain
This is a running thing that as men we must understand. A woman does not want sorry, she wants change. Yes, in the beginning she may say that she appreciates your kind words, but still in the end, she wants a change of heart and plans to change those effects. As men, we can talk to a certain point. Yet, a wife does not want talk, she wants action. Just as if we want action in the bedroom, she wants action in the relationship. If you do not give her any action, she will not give you any action, either, in the bedroom.
It is a hard thing to understand, men, but at times, women want both. They want words as well as action. There are things that will change over time, but if your wife had to choose between your words or doing it, she would rather have you do it. We have all heard the saying that talk is cheap.
