My husband Keith's on the blog today! He got quite fired up recently in some Facebook comments, absolutely dismayed at how some Christians talk about women. This post is perhaps more fiery than I would normally write, but he really wanted to say this, so I said, "Go...
MARRIAGE ON HARD MODE: How Gender Role Ideas Can Backfire

Does it Matter Who is the Primary Breadwinner?

I see advice all the time in both Christian and secular realms telling married couples to "prioritize your sex life." And you know what? I agree! That's why I've written three books on sex. (including 31 Days to Great Sex; I don't talk about that one enough anymore...
BARE MARRIAGE PODCAST: We’re Supposed to Be a TEAM!
In marriage, we're not supposed to be unequally yoked. We tend to think of that as meaning that we shouldn't marry unbelievers. But what if it's more than that? In today's podcast we do a little hip hop across different topics, because we had numerous small things we...
