Single's Seminar Question: How do you show someone in church that you are interested in them? |
| It is easier than you may think. Just begin by approaching them, introducing yourself and engaging in conversation. The Bible states that "the truth will set you free"; therefore, I advise that after a few good conversations with the person, you should express the truth that you are interested in going out on a date. My advice when you are initially dating, take your time by not getting too deep into heavier topics such as marriage, or family issues. In time, just see how the Lord directs the relationship, and then you will have the discernment on whether to continue the relationship or cordially go your separate directions.

Single's Seminar Question: How do you trust someone after being hurt? |
|
It is important to let God heal your wounded heart. You must express to your mate the reason you are hurting. If your mate acknowledges that they were responsible for your pain and seek your forgiveness, it is important to forgive them so that you don't continue in the relationship with bitterness. If you look to and believe in the Lord, then He can heal your heart so that you can forgive, and move forward in love instead of bitterness |

Single's Seminar Question: When do I know I am settling? |
In time you will be able to identify whether your standards are too low. Many times I tell singles to find a mate who can help you deal with your weaknesses. Find a mate who has attributes that compliments your attributes. When you find a mate with complimentary attributes, there is good potential for a strong progressive relationship because where you are weak, your mate will be strong and vice a versa. |

Marriage Seminar Question: What should my husband do if he has erection issues? |
I advise the first thing he does is visit his doctor to see if there are any medical issues that is preventing him from having an erection. If there are no medical issues, there may be emotional issues that are keeping him from performing. This can be addressed through a marriage counselor and/or therapy. I encourage the husband and wife to work together on conducting the proper research and taking the proper steps to resolve the issue. |

Marriages Seminar Questions: How do you teach romance to your husband? |
Instead of getting into a teaching mode, you should get into a learning mode. A true husband wants to please his wife. Therefore, just mention you would like to spend some romantic time with him. You both come up with a time period where you both will make time for each other, and then ask him to take the lead on showing you what he believes to be a time of romance. Another time, you can show him what you believe is a romantic time together. In doing so, you both are learning each other's perspectives on romance. Romance is an important component to work on together for keeping a strong marriage. |

Marriage Seminar Question: What happens when the wife's sex drive is higher than her husband's? |
Many men have a difficult time dealing with a wife whose libido is higher than his. In these cases, I tell the wife to bring her husband to counseling so that he can learn that love making is not about competition with his wife, but about understanding each other's needs. The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 7:4, "The wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband's body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife". |
