Are You Having Super Sex?

Holding Hands

Or are you sick of sex? I am sick of the enemy deceiving those I love.  I take it personally and frankly am not going to take it anymore. At church, marriage conferences and even with my relatives I am seeing that women are bored, tired, and unconcerned with continuing to pursue growth in sexual [...]

“We’re going to enter the Guinness Book of World Records for the most people kissing passionately for five seconds at the same time,” said MomLife Today’s creator Tracey Eyster to an audience.

A Valentine’s Day Kissing Challenge

Kiss-Me

Today, I’m cozied up by the fire writing about what kind of kissing teen girls should reserve for marriage and why. It reminded me of A Kissing Challenge I offered to teens years ago to save that first kiss for as long as they could—maybe for marriage! But what good would the saving be, if [...]

The No More Headaches Challenge!

NoMoreHeadaches

Don’t know about you, but Liz Sanchez’ December 2010 post, “Take The Pretty Nightie Challenge,” may be the most talked about MomLife Today post in the Gresh house. Take it from a woman whose husband accuses her of being a hoodie-aholic (but only at bedtime), it’s a good thing to consider the concept of putting on something pretty now and then despite the fact that you’re sure you’ll freeze to death. (I took Liz’s challenge and wore something pretty to bed for a month and I did not freeze to death. I am, in fact, still alive!) The Pretty Nightie Challenge certainly ignited a few confessional conversations amongst me and my girlfriends. I might have even bought and shipped a somewhat pretty nightie to one of my fellow MomLife Today bloggers. (She shall remain nameless.)

A Passionate-About-Life Man is a Sexy Man

… are you helping your husband follow his dreams? I came upon a realization yesterday as I hugged my husband. I’m a bit rounder than I was when we got married. So is he. We both have more wrinkles. His hair is speckled with gray. (My hair would have more speckles, too, if it wasn’t [...]

Marriage Cruise Special Offer

I had the pleasure of being a part of the inaugural voyage of the FamilyLife Love Like You Mean It Cruise this past Valentine’s Day! I must confess, I knew it was going to be great. I mean, come on — a cruise ship for five days and I wouldn’t be cooking or cleaning one single [...]

MP900440972

Do you long for the opportunity to have a date night with your spouse? Do you feel cheated because you cannot manage to get out of the house, and date night just isn’t happening? Newsflash … you do not have to leave the house to have a date night! Really! Allow me to explain. Years ago, [...]

How to Create a Love Nest

IMG_3071

As a mom of four kids, taxi driver, short-order cook, laundry service, etc., it’s hard to transition to sex kitten after the kids are all tucked in. If I’m not careful, sex becomes an addition to my to-do list. But in reality, it’s one of my favorite perks of being married to my handsome man! When I [...]

Intimacy After Mastectomy

Breast Cancer Ribbon

Editor’s Note: Today’s post is a little different. It comes from one of our “moms behind the scenes” at MomLife Today. Suzanne Thomas serves as our Correspondence Director and experienced mentor for FamilyLife’s eMentoring. So much of what we do could not be done without her, and we are beyond blessed to have her as [...]

Married Sex The Best

secret

Pssst … Come here — I have a little secret. I have read that the most sexually satisfied women are Christian women. Oh, yeah — we are. Know why? We love God, God created sex, and God wants us to fully enjoy our marriage bed. He even included a whole book in the Bible around the pleasures [...]
