Helping high achieving Christian men have more intimate marriages. Start with episodes 1-4 for an introduction. Traditional marriage counseling, couples therapy, couples counseling and even Christian marriage counseling will tell you that a good marriage is based on compromise. Validating feelings. Sacrifice. I tried that for years. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work. That’s why most couples who go through marriage counseling are the same or worse off after. BUT, in my studies in neuroscience at BYU, MD training at UCLA, psychiatry residency, marriage coach training, and most importantly in my own marriage, I finally found what DOES work. Building strength. Spiritual, mental, emotional and sexual strength, while anchored in following Christian marriage principles. Strength is attractive. And, it feels great. It builds trust. Add to this the skills of communication and intimacy, and you get a marriage full of phenomenal mental, emotional and physical intimacy. And, you set the example for generations to follow. I applied this to my own marriage, I felt better than ever and had more connection and passion than I thought possible. I started teaching this to other men and couples and they were able to create mental, emotional and sexual intimacy faster than they thought possible. This even works for affair recovery and emotional affairs. Now it’s your turn. Become a strong, attractive man. Create a strong, passionate marriage.

You Don't Have To Agree With Your Wife - Thursday Thoughts
While it's important to understand your wife...
You don't have to agree with everything she says.
And really, you shouldn't.
From my upcoming book:
As Stephen Covey puts it, it’s “seek first to understand.” Now, a lot of people mistake understanding for agreement. You don’t have to agree with everything your wife says. And really, you shouldn’t. Winston Churchill said “If two people agree on everything, one of them is unnecessary.” Your differences are important and help you grow.
In marriage, you don’t have to agree with your wife’s opinions about money, sex, in-laws, parenting, religion, housework or how free time is spent. You don’t have to agree about decorations in the house. You don’t even have to agree about politics.
But, if you want to get to win-win agreements (coming in the following chapters), you do need to understand her perspective. She needs to have psychological air to feel safe enough to share her opinions and to get to where you can both have a reasonable, calm discussion.
If you want to learn the skills to have the win-win discussions to create a marriage full of sexual, mental and emotional intimacy...
