In life, none of us are perfect, we stumble, fall short, and make mistakes. As Christians (Nick and Amy), we believe in the incredible gift of grace through Jesus Christ, who forgives us despite our flaws. But when it comes to our marriages, are we offering that same grace to our spouse? Or are we holding onto disappointments, expecting perfection, and being too hard on offering grace to not only ourselves, but also the one we love most? In this episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, we dive into the power of grace in marriage and why it matters, how it strengthens connection, and how forgiveness can transform our relationships. Discover how showing grace to each other creates deeper emotional safety, trust, and unity with your spouse.DISCLAIMER: We recognize that not all of our audience that listen to the podcast are Christian, but this can be so beneficial to your marriage regardless of your beliefs.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

Join Dave and Bethlie discuss as they discuss part 2 of thei 4th book in this series. Solving Marriage Problems by Jay E. Adams. Part 2 Chapter 5 - More Unbiblical concepts about marriage One's priorities must change radically with marriage.   Marriage is a commitment to become a new person.   Chapter 6 deals with handling Stubborn Habits that wreck a marriage A habit is dislodged only by crowding it out with its biblical alternative. No change commanded by God is unrealistic for those who know Christ as their Savior and are willing to do things His way.   Chapter 7 deals with communication Communication is essential for developing and maintaining the deep intimacy that God designed for the marriage relationship. The Christian walk (subject of Ephesians 4-6) is not a solitary walk.  Harmony in walk requires harmony in talk. Mishandled anger is one of he biggest hindrances to communication Clamming up Blowing up Truth may hurt, but in the long run it will not hurt like a lie And truth can be told to another, if it is relevant and spoken in the right manner   Chapter 10 The parent-child relationship is temporary: God says it must be broken.   The husband wife relationship is permanent.

In this episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, Nick and Amy dive into one of the most common struggles couples face: keeping score in marriage.So many couples reach out to us feeling overwhelmed and frustrated because things don't feel “50/50. in their marriage. One spouse feels like they're doing more, and resentment begins to creep in. The harder they try to keep score, and keep things equal, the more discouraged and disconnected they become.When you keep score, you are competing agains each other and no one wins.We'll talk about why keeping score is so damaging to intimacy, how it slowly erodes trust and love, and why the more you strive for perfect equality the more disconnected and resentful you will become. We'll share healthier ways to approach balance, teamwork, and appreciation in marriage.If you've ever felt like you're giving more than your spouse or wondered how to stop the cycle of frustration, this episode is for you. Join us as we uncover how to move away from scorekeeping and toward a marriage filled with gratitude, unity, and joy.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

This week on ShrinkChicks, Em and Jen tackle one of their most requested topics: marriage advice! And as two Marriage and Family Therapists who are married themselves, they definitely have a lot to say on the topic.  From the best (and worst) advice they've gotten themselves, to questions like “How do you know if they're the one?” and “What should we talk about before getting married?”, Em and Jen cover the messy, practical, and surprising truths about love and commitment. They explore what changes after marriage, which flaws are worth putting up with, and why “when you know, you know” isn't always the whole story. Listener questions dig into readiness, money conversations, staying close while changing, and the difference between relational health and chemistry. Plus, in Dear Em & Jen, they respond to a listener navigating how to share pregnancy news with a friend struggling with infertility. Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!

Join Dave and Bethlie as they discuss the third book in this series entitled Books That Can Help and Why. This series they'll be discussing Sheet Music by Dr. Kevin Leman. About the author Dr. Leman is a psychologist and best-selling author He is also a radio and tv personality  He is a speaker About the book Dr. Leman says that sex is about the quality of your entire love life His book is a challenge to give your spouse the best gift ever—a sexually enthusiastic mate Not just a how to book but a do it yourself look at why to do it and how to do it better He writes about what goes on in our brains and in our relationship with our spouse and how to overcome some errors and also to use what we learn to our advantage A few good points “The physical aspect will usually take care of itself if the relationship is healthy. If you decide to become sexually adventurous as a couple, you're not going to do things perfectly, anyway; you're going to fail, and hopefully, you'll laugh about it when you do. Nobody's sex life is such that every experience is a ten. You may have to be satisfied with regular eights or sixes and even an occasional three. P 10 This book is written “to hep you understand what a unique and wonderful gift you are to each other, as well as the unique and wonderful ways you can express your love in a very physical and pleasurable sense.” P 10 “Sex is part of a relationship.” P 12 “Why do you think that God reserves sex for marriage? I believe that one of the reasons (which gets very little attention, unfortunately) is that good sex is not easy and it's very personal.” “Abstinence doesn't make the loins grow hotter, it just begets more abstinence.” P 184 “We live in a world that glorifies youth, uncommitted sex, and bodies that require a ridiculous amount of self-serving time in the gym. Let's turn that around. Let's reaffirm the bodies of women who have generously and selflessly produced life for one, two, three, or four babies. Let's appreciate those men who work hard to support their families and who don't have time to stop off at the gym and lift weights because they're eager to get home and play with their kids” p 238[‘;;  A  few challenges from the author about reading the book One to you who are living together but not married - this book is not for you “If you are living with someone outside of marriage, I suggest you move out and start over. The two of you may still make it work, but if you can't make it work outside of marriage without being sexually active, odds are that the marriage will soon fall apart anyway.” p. 19 One for those who are uncomfortable talking about sex in a forthright manner. He is rather frank. So be warned! So some good quotes: Good lovers learn to know their lover better than they know themselves. You've got to stop viewing sex through your perception alone and start viewing in through your spouse's eyes.” P 32 Great marital sex is about learning to love someone else the way he or she wants to be loved. p. 33 Some recommended chapters Learning to make music, the first night and beyond Very good for those about to get married Very good in preparing for the honeymoon For women only For men only 31 flavors (not ice cream) 31 suggestions for keeping your love life exciting and fresh Turning off the turnoffs Sex's greatest enemy For women - weariness Chapter 14 is called “too pooped to whoop” It gives practical advice for dealing with weariness For men - lack of pursuit on the part of the wife A man wants to be needed and wanted and prized Sex in the Winter - about getting older and how to face it and handle it well and enjoy sexual relations as you do
