Cool of the Day
Ladies please remember that God did not talk to Adam until the cool of the day (Genesis 3:7-9). In other words, He waited until the day had cooled down before talking to Adam. I know your spouse can get you upset and hot but approaching your mate when you are heated can be more harmful than helpful. Two (hot-headed) angry people have a difficult time resolving their relational issues. Instead, cool down (for example go to the gym or take a walk) and then talk to your mate about issues. |

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.

Spiritual and Sensual
Chapter from "Married Couples: Thou Shalt have Great Sex"
(Coming July 2009)
The word sensual relates to the senses (hearing, sight, smell, touch, taste, and equilibrium). You can include
hunger as part of this group as well. When we were born, we were given BOTH spiritual and sensual NEEDS. Both
come from God. Because of this, we have to address both
issues as we grow in grace.
Many have tried to kill the flesh (the sensual side). Nevertheless, if we are honest with ourselves, we know
the flesh rises again. The revelation that I have received is about learning to control and balance these senses. You
may not agree, but people can become strict legalists to the point that they do not address their physical issues. I know
this sentiment may not be popular, but I see overweight
Christian giants who love the Lord but hate their own bodies; we need to learn to love our bodies.

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.)

In this corner
Physically fighting within a relationship is PROHIBITED. Whether you are the husband or wife, keep your hands to yourself unless you are making love to your spouse. First of all, if you and your spouse fight often then anger management (for one or both of you) may be needed along with a marriage counselor. If your mate hits you, you should notify the police sooner than later. Also, a spouse who is physically abusive is a sign that things from the abuser's past have not been resolved. Finally, children who witness their parents being physically abusive or abused may become abusers or abused themselves within their future relationships.

Biblical Love of Husband to wife:
The word love is agapaho in the Greek. Which means to love unconditionally.
Ephesians 5: 25Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her,
33However, let each man of you [without exception] love his wife as [being in a sense] his very own self; and let the wife see that she respects and reverences her husband and that she notices him, regards him, honors him, prefers him, venerates, and esteems him; and g]'>[g]that she defers to him, praises him, and loves and admires him exceedingly]. [I Pet. 3:2.]

unconditionally.
Genesis 29:
32And Leah became pregnant and bore a son and named him Reuben [See, a son!]; for she said, Because the Lord has seen my humiliation and affliction; now my husband will love me.

Alpha Women Part 1
The definition of an alpha female may sound appealing to some; however, these women face many challenges when it comes to relationships. Alpha women are women who attempt to take charge and get all that they want. These alpha women are also VERY particular in the things they desire and most are perfectionists. Some of these women want it all. Here the word "All" refers to both a lucrative career and a dedicated family-life. Alpha females actually learn this concept of "having it all" from the alpha male. The problem is that many of these alpha women have learned from alpha men which can be some of the worst teachers. Why? Alpha men sometimes find trophy wives (women who are chosen merely for their looks) and condemn and act cold-blooded towards those to whom they claim to love. These characteristics of an alpha male which the alpha female embraces are the very characteristics that need to change within her in order for her to get involved in a relationship with a man who she can love and respect.
Without a doubt an alpha woman can not and will not hang with a man that she does not respect. If she does not respect a man, then she is not going to waste her time being with him. Her standard of the man she wants to be with is extremely high. For example she would want a man to be at least on her same level professionally.
In this short but hopefully helpful book, I will give women insight into how alpha men can be in a successful relationship with alpha women. The second part of the book comes up with suggestions for alpha women. I explain that it is not enough to identify a problem within your relationship, but you must address your problems as well. And the last parts of the book consist of people's comments and Bible applications for being an alpha woman.
Together I hope to take this journey with you as you discover the realities and the reason whys, in regards to an alpha female. Yet in all these things, hold fast alpha women. Learn to let God take control of your situation and realize you cannot do it by yourself. I know an alpha-woman may be use to doing things herself, but as a Christian, she must let God take the lead in her life to truly be successful.

Excerpt
from "Real Men Don't Have Closets" by T. Charles Brantley
Wives, before you go down the path, make
sure your facts are not emotional. You cannot
go on thought; you must have the facts. In this,
a husband cannot deny the truth. Remember,
he lied this far, and he may lie again. By having
all the cards on the table, he cannot run from
the truth.
In essence, are you ready for the truth? Are
you ready to make the decision that will affect
your family forever? Yes, ladies, the ball is in
your court when your husband spills the beans.
The decision may be to stay, or your decision
may be to leave. The only words I can give you
is think hard on your decision before making it.

Excerpt from "Successful Marriages for Successful Men" by T. Charles Brantley
Truthfulness
Brothers, we must come clean. Without a doubt, no woman wants a man who lies to her. In no way can this be compromised. When she asks you a question,
be straight up and answer her. If you hide
something, she will surely figure it out. God gave women another sense, and my God, they use it to
their advantage. Someone said that women are better liars than men. Upon this fact, man, we still have to do right even if they do wrong to us. This is
why you must speak the truth always.
You should rather have your wife leave due to truth (revelation) about you than have your wife leave you because you spoke a lie. In addition, I know, men, it is hard at times to speak the truth because in the back of our minds we are wondering about the
consequences that our wives will give to us. We
must fight this true demon. If you do not fight that "what if" spirit, it will come on you like a stack of bricks and surely hurt you in ways unknown. I
believe we get our lying spirit from our father
Adam. When God asked Adam, he blamed his wife for the sin. We have to fight that same natural
impulse. We have to muster up the truth and speak it to her 25/8.
