Strong Men Strong Marriages
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.

How To Find Internal Peace And Acceptance
For most of my life, I’ve felt like I need to achieve to be valuable.I haven’t really felt like I could ever rest. I was either “growing or dying.”The last few weeks have shown me that this isn’t really what God intends or wants for me… or for you.Instead, we can find rest in knowing we are Sons Of The King. That we are loved, accepted and forgiven through Christ. We can stop trying to fight the battles that have already been won.And, in that peace, we can follow Christ one step at a time as He works in us to become what He has in store for us.Watch on YouTube here.
