I Almost Forgot...

That's what I get for trying to multi-task my morning...more on Date Weekend...and pretty much the most important part!
Saturday night we went to Married Life Live at our Church!! This is one of my favorite activities at Buckhead Church...and it's a built -in date night! This quarter's topic...sex!! From growing up...sex was just not something that was discussed within church walls but hearing the speaker Sat night opened my eyes and heart. The speaker was Mark Gungor, and I hope to read his book, if only to remember his points to pass along to my children! He's a little annoying but funny and has a great message! On the link above is a partial interview with him! It's only 5-10 minutes but worth watching with your honey! And his key motto is Christians should be known "for having the best sex on the planet" because of the powerful link between sex and intimacy!

Married Life Live's format can be used at any church and I'm sure if you're interested in bringing it to your church, a Buckhead Church staff member would be happy to help! Below is the overview of what Married Life Live is all about....

In today’s world it seems like there is never enough time in our day to accomplish everything that we would like to. Between the responsibilities that we have of raising a family, succeeding at work and keeping up with our own busy schedules, nurturing our marriage can easily move down on our list of priorities.
Join other couples for a night of laughter, small groups, creative videos and a practical message that will help you have a healthier and more successful marriage.
Each MarriedLife Live event is presented around one of the following Six Essentials of a Healthy Marriage:
Trust God - We believe the number one essential is to allow God to control our lives and our marriages.
Cultivate Communication - Feeling understood in your marriage is one of the greatest feelings a couple can have yet feeling misunderstood can be one the greatest challenges in your marriage. We believe that good communication is a major component of a healthy marriage and we to help you to have great communication with your spouse.
Nurture Romance - The power of romance and intimacy can be a marriages greatest ally or it can become its greatest enemy. We want to help couples recognize that we each have unique needs and remember that our spouse has unique needs as well.
Celebrate Differences - God created men and women to be totally different. As couples we can use those differences to complement and serve each other or we can allow our difference to push us apart. We believe that couples should seek to understand, love and accept each other’s differences.
Hurry Home - Spend time together as a family is an important priority in a successful marriage. We believe that the grass is always greener where you water it so our schedules must reflect the priority of home.
Finish Together - One essential that every healthy marriage needs is security. We believe that couples need to know that together they can work anything out.
