Episode #27: Why "Date Night" and the "30-day Sex Challenge" Won't Work
Listen now
Description
"Date Night" has become almost a required step for every couple to have a successful marriage, promising emotional bliss for couples who'll stay committed to one night a week alone. And when date night doesn't work, some couples throw in more sex, following programs like the "30-day Sex Challenge". Yet, we meet many couples whose marriages are struggling, while they're religiously having date nights (and trying to have more sex).

Join us on this podcast as we talk about how we experienced real intimacy in our marriage...intimacy based not on what we could do...but on what only God could do. - Phil and Priscilla, Savage Marriage Ministries Resources: Join the Savage Marriage Community at Savage Marriage Ministries Buy Phil and Priscilla's book, Savage Marriage: Triumph over Betrayal and Sexual Addiction, at Savage Marriage: Triumph over Betrayal and Sexual Addiction: Fretwell, Phil, Fretwell, Priscilla: 9798985540208: Amazon.com: Books Buy the Savage Marriage Study Guide on Amazon at Savage Marriage Study Guide: Overcome Your Past.
