Recently I heard a news story about some very interesting and powerful council from a Pastor of a church in Grapevine, TX. Why it struck me is because I have often suggested the same thing to couples who are having a strain in their marriage or just want to grow closer to each other.
Rev. Ed Young, pastor of the Fellowship Church, suggested to his married couples an entire week of “congregational copulation”. That's right; SEX. He did this while pacing in front of a large bed and flipping through a Bible.
The article called this a "controversial topic among his religious community". However, I don't know anything controversial about it. Hello secular world and media, Christians like to have sex to. We just prefer not to have it splattered all over the television and computer in the name of, so called "sexual freedom". Sexual fulfillment is one of the most spiritual things you can do in your marriage and will have major lasting affects on your relationship.
The challenge was to have sex everyday, at least once, for an entire week. (I can hear and see some of the gasping and eye rolling now from some of you) His advice is right on. A healthy sex life is not only important to a relationship but give you a connection you don't get otherwise in your otherwise busy lives. It allows the two of you to become one, and if done properly, allows the other to focus on the needs of the one person they love most in the world.
Some of you might be worried this challenge will have you making love out of obligation not desire. I would propose this; If the thought of having intimate alone time with you spouse, everyday for an entire week automatically brings up concerns or ways to denounce the challenge, you probably do the same when it comes to any amount of intimacy with your spouse. You think of excuses or reasons why it won't work for you or why that's a crazy request. That's why taking on this challenge is a great opportunity for you to actually work on making it spontaneous and create that desire.
In her book, And They Were Not Ashmed, Laura Brotherson writes,
"A little playfulness and creativity in appropriate ways can add vitality to your sexual relationship. Don't let lovemaking become predictable or routine-predictability can squelch sensuality."
I can hear some of you now, "But if we are both committed to making love for an entire week, where's the spontaneity in that?"
Like Laura says, shake it up a bit. Steel a moment away in the middle of the day. Surprise him at work. Take a bath together after the kids go to bed. Welcome him home with the kids gone at grandma's house and you in the buff. Make it up! Get creative. If you are feeling empty in the creative arena, do something really crazy and ask your spouse what they think would be creative.
At this closing of the year, why not set a goal that you can not only keep up on, but will absolutely strengthen your marriage. Once you have taken up the challenge from myself and Pastor Young for one week, continue by following his further advice to his congregation after the experiment was over, “keep on doing what you’ve been doing this week. We should try to double up the amount of intimacy we have in marriage. And when I say intimacy, I don’t mean holding hands in the park or a back rub.”

What makes them feel loved?
Do you know what make your spouse feel loved? Do they know what makes you feel loved?
Have you asked them? Have they told you?
Too often we assume what makes the other feel loved or important and too often we get it wrong. Why? Because we assume we know and yet all we really have to do is ask and we will never have confusion again.
What if you had a literal list of things your spouse told you make them feel loved and important? You could wake up in the morning and look at the list of things you could do and then do them. Boom! Guaranteed affection! No guess work involved. It's all right on the list they made. It's almost like having an instruction manual for your spouse on how to make them feel loved. Can you imagine how many disappointments and even arguments that would resolve?
Well stop imagining and start doing.
Here is a date night assignment for you:
Forget the movie. Go to a quiet place, even check into a hotel if you have to, and make lists with each other. Talk about exactly what it is that makes you feel loved.
Do you feel love when he takes out the garbage?
Do you feel love when she makes your favorite breakfast?
Do you feel love when he let's you sleep in?
Do you feel love when she lets you watch the entire game with out interruption?
Name both the big and little things. Those things that take planning as well as those that can be done very quickly. Don't hold back!
Then take that list and place it somewhere it is easily accessible like a refrigerator or in the bathroom. Then it will work as a constant reminder as well as a guide.

What's your family pecking order
In a recent study by the Edmonton Journal the number of divorces amongst older couples compared to their younger counterparts unfortunately is on the rise.
As a matter of fact between 1993 and 2003, the overall divorce rate fell by more than 11%, led by declines of over 40% among people in their 20’s and close to 30% among people in their 30’s. While divorce among couples in their 40’s rose slightly, the rate jumped 34% for those in the 50-54 age group. Among those aged 55-59, it reached a staggering peak of 47%. For those in their early 60s, the increase was less, but it still stood at 31.7%. Among seniors, it fell further to 9.2%.
I believe the high rate in the 50-59 age range is due to too many couples, in this case baby boomers, focusing their parenting on the needs and desires of the children needs over and above the needs of their spouse. Therefore once the children are out of the home, the husband and wife no longer know each other or have the burring desire towards one another they should have because they spend to much of their focus in the wrong area. Loving your children is obviously of great importance. However, the love between a husband and wife must be consistently nurtured and cared for, even beyond that of the children.
The Scripture say, "Let a man cling unto his wife and none other." It does not follow with, unless you want to make your children your best friend or you feel guilty for "whatever". Your husband or wife should always come first. Let your children know this. Tell them of the "Pecking order" when it comes to your affection. We have had that conversation many times in our home and the kids are grateful for it. They know that mom and dad are a united front and if push ever comes to shove we will choose each other as husband and wife over them. The more we not only tell them this, but show them by our example of love and affection towards one another in front of them, the stronger people and spouses they will be in their own marriage.

Act as if
I am the worlds greatest Husband and father. Why? Because I act as if I am.
For those of you who have been at my trainings before you have heard me use this phrase over and over again.
Acting as if is the fastest way to becoming something you want to be.
Do you want to become the worlds greatest husband or father? Then start doing what you think the worlds greatest husband and father would do and start doing it.
It's the same for anything; do you want to become a millionaire? Then you have to find out what millionaires do through the study of them in books like Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill or The Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker and and start acting accordingly.
No matter what it is, if you truly start to act like whatever it is you want to become, you can not stop from eventually becoming that thing.
If you feel you are having a challenge in your relationship being what you really want to be, then start today by changing. If you need help, and you have already downloaded my 8 Systems audio as well as been a regular reader of the blog, email me and I will be happy to give some suggestions.

Stuff it with a letter
It's an old and wise saying which tells us "the best gift is a gift from the heart". So this year why not give a little something extra of yourself in your spouses Christmas stocking this year. A letter of gratitude and love. Sure the shiny(jewelry) and smelly (cologne) things are nice but you will absolutely blow them away with a simple hand written, (or if your like me and need spell check even typed will do), letter from the heart.
Hopefully their joy in receiving this note will inspire you to do it more often throughout the year.
In a recent post Sheri and Bob Stritof from About.com gave some great tips about how to leave notes for your loved one.
Here are a few suggested topics:
Let them know why your love grew for them more this year.
How their help with a certain challenge was important to you.
List what you are truly thankful to them for.
What your goals are as a spouse this upcoming year.
What are the things they do that make you feel loved.
The best thing about this "stuffer" is it will never loose its shine or fragrance. Your spouse will be able to pull your note out whenever they want to and feel that sense of gratitude and love from you. It also has the possibility of being opened and read many years from now by your grown children, serving as a witness to their parents love for each other. Is there really any better gift than that?

Couples see economy as a time to rethink things
Isn't it interesting how it takes a tragedy or a challenge in our life to make us rethink a few things. Turn on the news and just about every night there is a story about how bad the economy is and right behind it is a story about how you can, "Tighten your belt" or other tips on how to get through this tough time. Because of the economic struggle many are facing, there is a trend to get back to basics and re-think what is important or necessary in our lives. The quick rash decision making when it comes to money has given way to more planning and better money management. That same trend is showing itself in another area as well; divorce.
Recently the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML) conducted a survey and found that 37% of AAML members said they typically see a decrease in the number of divorce cases during national economic downturns, 19% experienced an increase.
Gary Nickelson, president of AAML says, "Many individuals tend to employ a wait-and-see strategy during a troubled marriage and are very well prepared when it comes time to file for divorce. A sudden drop in net worth can effectively postpone this final decision from being made."
So basically, because it doesn't make good financial sense right now, people are forced to re-think this devastating decision. It's a bit sad that money is the reason people are forced to do this, yet also a blessing in disguise for many who take the opportunity to find their desire for one another again.

Dating or engaged evaluation
I have been asked by my non-married friends to create a questionnaire they can use so here goes. The first one was one I tweaked from the internet. This one I tweaked again. I hope it helps assess the strength and maturity of your relationship or pending nuptials. It is suggested that each of you complete it separately, then compare notes. Rate your relationship or expectation of what you want in your marriage on a scale from 1 (lowest) to 5 (highest) in each of the different categories. This will highlight areas for growth or in some cases reconsideration. It also highlights differences in perception about your combined strengths and weaknesses. Over all, I hope it starts a conversation around what you both expect out of your marriage.

Have you discussed how you will support each other in the “weak times” or times when you are questioning your faith?

You would not accept mediocrity from them just because you liked them or felt good about them. As a matter of face, Fortune 500 companies spend lots of money hiring head hunters and recruiters to find just the right person for the job. I hope this survey/ evaluation helps yo do the same.

It's that time of year!
During this Christmas season try to focus on giving daily gifts to one another. Not gifts you buy, rather gifts from the heart. Why not do a twelve days of Christmas of your own and become the "true love" spoken of in the traditional song.
Here are a few suggestions, please feel free to make up your own.
On the first day of Christmas my True Love gave to me...
1. Big Wet Kiss (In front of kids if applicable)
2. Light taps (or squeezes) on the bum.
3. Blooming roses
4. "Just because" calls in the middle of the day.
5. Have spontaneous "alone time"
6. Open her car door. Greet him at the door.
7. Slow dancing in the kitchen.
8. Let her hold the remote. Let him flip through the channels.
9. Good morning greeting with a kiss.
10. Sincere complement.
11. Take a walk together.
12. Gratitude notes.
If you were to follow the song, including the repeats, by the end of twelve days you would have:
12 Big wet kisses.
22 Squeezes on the bum.
30 Roses
36 Calls
40 Spontaneous "Alone Time's"
42 Opening or greeting
42 Slow dances
40 Remote controls
36 "Good Mornings"
30 Complements
22 Walks
12 Notes
When you tally up the numbers, you could choose to think some of those tasks, and the required frequency are overwhelming or unrealistic. Remember the old saying, whether you believe you can or believe you can't, you are right. For Christians, this is the time of year we celebrate the birth of our Savior who sacrifices his life for all of the world. Isn't your marriage worth a little bit of extra effort this Christmas season?
When you do this exercise, I promise your entire month will change and your relationship will end the year and start the new one on a great note.
