- Why do marriages start out with fun, mystery, surprise and excitement before fading into a relationship worthy of mere roommates rather than spouses? How can married couples go back to that connection and spark and being married to their best friends? Lisa Jacobson and Phylicia Masonheimer came up with a series of “flirtation experiments” to rekindle connection with their husbands. Through simple acts of love and kindness, these women were able to start a chain reaction that resulted in happier, stronger marriages. In this interview, they’ll inspire couples to bring back the romance in their marriage and rediscover why they love doing life together.

We gave up TV before bed for books. I read to my husband at night and we've really enjoyed it!
I’ve heard people say for at least five decades that “in this day and age such as such is harder than ever.“. The truth is that it’s absolutely no harder today than it was 10 years ago, 50 years ago, 100 years ago, 1000 years ago. It’s absolutely no harder. It’s completely a moment by moment, day-to-day choice regarding how we want to relate to the people around us. It’s just a matter of priorities and that’s never been any easier or harder in any point in time in history.
Yep.
Ecclesiastes 7:10
10 Do not say, “Why is it that the former days were better than these?”
For it is not from wisdom that you ask about this.
Hey! It’s Phylicia Masonheimer! So glad you hosted her! Bring her back again!
There is an old Italian song where a guy is singing to the guy that married his ex-wife. He talks about the things he made to keep the relationship alive and excited, but his wife never responded. He says to the new husband " How did you do? Congratulations". There was a girl in my church that was dating this very handsome guy and the guy didn't treat her well. We asked her one day what she liked about the guy, and she told things that was not really the guy. She invented him in her mind. She was dating an illusion she created in her mind.
Thanks
What do you think about this scenario? You talked about things like joining him in video games or things you don’t particularly like, but he gets used to you doing those things & expects it & he won’t do the same for you? It’s now all about what he wants.
Yes, that is their proposal, that his wants supplant or at least supercede yours. Christ (the Holy Spirit) literally says the opposite, that it is the husband who is to lay down his life for his bride, as Jesus did for the church (Ephesians 5:25, 2 Corinthians 8:8-9).
The hope would be that he WOULD reciprocate. Biblical marriage is mutual submission. Not just one side. They talk about it in the interview, this is meant for spiritually healthy marriages that maybe need a little tweaking in the intimacy department. If your husband is not laying his life and desires down for you in appropriate ways, seek counseling
Spouses (husband or wife) are not mind readers. If you do something for your spouse, do it out of a giving heart without requirement of something back. If you have a want or need that you want your spouse to fulfill please vocalize that desire to them and explain what it wound mean to you, your heart, and how it would fulfill you if they did it. Communication solves almost every issue.
They mentioned that their husbands are healthy Godly men, generally speaking, you won’t have this issue ( speaking from experience here ) if you have a HEALTHY and GODLY husband who also thinks about your needs. 🙂 If your husband is not healthy and Godly, pray for him. ❤
This book sounds amazing, I live in South Africa, is there anyway to get this book here? Or can it maybe be download at all?

As I’m listening to this my husband/pastor came in from church, shooting me with our boys laser blasters that he’d found on his way upstairs. Does that count as playful flirting? 😂 Did he already listen to this?!
I do not see how a pastor who KNOWS the truth 😮endorse a book by A. Stanley NOT IN IT TO WIN IT. Why😢.
It is sad beyond what can be expressed in words.
@YolandaHulley......me too?
