Can Marriage Go From Fizzle to Sizzle?
Do you miss how you used to feel? My friend, Brittany did, and I’d like to tell you her story. Although Brittany was a very successful businesswoman, she found herself in a failing and passionless marriage. She desperately wanted her marriage to work, especially for the kids, but sadly, they were on the verge of a divorce. At night she would fake being asleep, and when he did initiate intimacy, she recoiled at his touch. Her husband was feeling rejected, unappreciated, and frustrated. Their home became more like a war zone than a loving home, everyone could feel the tension.
Brittany decided she was going to do whatever it took to get the sparks back in her marriage. She knew the way she had been interacting and responding to her husband wasn’t going to get them out of their marriage funk.
Something had to change, but what?
The first step to change in marriage almost always starts with self-reflection. She didn’t say he doesn’t do this… and he should be doing… and he hurt me because… he, he, he…! Instead of pointing the finger at him, she took an inventory of herself.
Those of us who are married can all make our own lists of grievances of the hurts we’ve endured, but it takes a brave person to look within and ask, What am I doing wrong and what can I change to make things better? And that’s exactly what Brittany did.
After much introspection and investigation she discovered her answer was in the bedroom. Unlocking that door unlocked the passion in her relationship and gave her the secrets to a lasting, loving, and thriving marriage. Not only did Brittany and her husband feel more confident and empowered in their careers, they even saw positive shifts in their parenting.
A good sex life can change everything.
How exactly did she do this?

Some may have differing perspectives on relationships, however, my prayer is that you will join us and take away wins that help you to have the marriage of your dreams.
God is pro-sex. Have you ever heard that before? Many people harbor the notion that God is somehow anti-sex, especially people who don’t know God up close and personal. When you know God, really know God, you discover He’s a big fan of sex. One of the questions I was asked during my interview was, “Don’t Christians believe God says sex is only for makin’ babies?”
I laughed out loud.
My answer, “No, not at all.” Have you ever believed that myth? If so, read through Song of Songs and you’ll find evidence to dismantle that falsehood. Physical intimacy is great and wonderful and magical. God made it this way—magnificent beyond all imagination.
I sincerely hope you can join us!
