There are needs or wants you wish your spouse would meet. There will be hopes and expectations missed.

Without trying to, you can put a lot of pressure on your spouse to meet all your needs and satisfy all your desires.

But, when you consistently get into God’s presence, you realize He is the Satisfier. He is your Great Comforter. He never breaks His promises. He is your Provider and Protector. He is all you have ever wanted and all you need.

DownloadCultivating Intimacy in Your MarriageWhat is sex in marriage for? The world has very different views about most things the Word of God says. That is especially true for the topic of sex and sexuality. There is no sanctity in marriage or sex in the eyes of this world. The topic has become distorted, crass, humorous, and a joke. The act has become casual, disconnected, a pastime. The enemy has done his best to obtain a beautiful gift in lovely clean packaging and stomp on it.

For there to be a change in my marriage, I had to clear my mind of what I thought I knew about intimacy.

I had to learn, understand, and embrace what GOD had to say about intimacy in my marriage.

Lately we are all facing more stressful work pressure, unexpected changes of plans, and disappointing circumstances.

But as we lean into the power of Christ within us, we have the invitation to invest more intentionally in our marriage connection. And as we thoughtfully and purposefully sow good seeds in the soil of our marriage, we will see more fruit grow, even in difficult seasons.

That’s the supernatural life we’re called to live through Christ.

Build a Strong MarriageShort List for a Long MarriageAt the outset, Pete and I were among the least likely to be long-married. We’d wed shortly after high school; I was pregnant. In addition to our general immaturity and my immense insecurity, we were the classic “unequally yoked” couple (2 Cor. 6:14). Surely, we checked every box on the Marriages Doomed to Fail list.

Like every marriage, ours was severely tested in ways we couldn’t have predicted: dairy industry disruptions; farm disasters; extended family dynamics; my college and career journey; plus all the perils and pressures of raising a family. The fabric of our union was often frayed and sometimes unraveling.

How did it happen we’d made it to this sweet season of fruition? Forty-plus years in, we’ve devised a short list of principles for the long haul – in marriage and in life.

Get the Short ListDealing with Sexual Sin in Marriage7 Tips for Addressing LustMy marriage was almost sabotaged by lust.

I had struggled with lustful thinking since I was a teen and had committed to keeping it hidden no matter the cost. My strict, conservative upbringing instilled in me a belief that it was better if no one ever knew because it would only lead to being shamed and shunned. Not only that, but I was a pastor and knew that if anyone found out I would be fired, and my wife could leave me.

But Father God, in His love for me, knew this could not continue. He allowed my wife to find evidence of my behavior, and I knew I was exposed.

If you or someone you know struggles with lust, here are seven tips to help you fight for freedom.
