If you do it right ... sexual intimacy should get better every year you're married.
Every year you think, "It just doesn't get any better than this ..." and then the next year ... "boom!" 🔥
Jesus made it clear that in this world, we will face tribulation. It is not optional, it is part of following Him. But Scripture also makes a distinction that many believers miss. There is a difference between tribulation and The Tribulation.
Tribulation is the pressure, persecution, and opposition that comes from the world against believers. The Tribulation is something entirely different. It is the outpouring of God’s wrath. As the bride of Christ, we are not appointed to wrath.
In this episode, I walk through why I believe the Church will be taken before the Tribulation begins, not to create division or arguments, but to bring clarity and encouragement. This is not about debating timelines, it is about understanding God’s heart and being prepared to stand firm no matter what comes.

MYTHS ABOUT MARRIED SEX ...
Myth: Married sex is boring or monotonous.
Reality: Married sex can be more satisfying due to trust, comfort, and the ability to grow closer sexually over time. It takes being intentional.
Myth: Married people rarely have sex.
Reality: This is a persistent misconception; many married couples maintain a regular, active sex life.
Myth: The passion and desire disappear after marriage.
Reality: Sexual desire can continue and deepen in marriage, although it may require conscious effort and communication to maintain.
Myth: If you don't have intercourse/penetrative sex, it doesn't count.
Reality: Prioritizing only intercourse can lead to disappointment. Sexual intimacy includes many forms of sexual connection that are just as valid.
Myth: Good sex should happen spontaneously.
Reality: Especially after children or years of marriage, scheduling sex can be a practical way to ensure intimacy is prioritized, rather than waiting for a moment that rarely arrives.
Myth: Your partner should know what you want without asking.
Reality: Open, direct communication is necessary to understand and meet each other's evolving sexual needs.
Myth: Pornography is a healthy way to improve marriage sex.
Reality: Research suggests pornography often acts as a short-term stimulant but creates unrealistic expectations that, in the long run, diminish satisfaction with a real spouse.
Myth: Women don't enjoy or want sex as much as men.
Reality: Women have complex, high sex drives, but their desire is often more tied to emotional connection and context. In 20% of marriages, the wife has the higher sex drive than her husband.
What you wear can open a conversation.
“Adventus Domini” was a phrase used in the Roman Empire when a king entered a city. The early church took that same phrase and used it to declare something greater… the coming of Jesus.
Now imagine someone asking you what it means.
That moment turns into an opportunity to share your faith, to point people to the hope we have, and to remind others that our King is coming.

Jesus said something powerful about gathering with other believers. He told us that when two or three gather in His name, He is there in their midst.
Of course, He also promised He would never leave us or forsake us. But Scripture shows that there is a unique, transforming presence of Christ that we experience when we come together in His name.
Yet many people today say they are Christians while choosing to live their faith completely alone. They don’t gather with the church, they don’t join small groups, and they miss the spiritual strength and transformation that comes through community.
Following Jesus was never meant to be a solo journey. God designed us to grow, be strengthened, and encounter His presence as we gather with other believers.

When it comes to Valentine's Day, the way we see it, you have a choice:
1. You can either complain about the commercialism, the unnecessary pressures, and the romantic clichés...
OR
2. You can just take advantage of the good excuse to enjoy loving your spouse and bless your marriage.
We choose #2.
Valentine’s Day draws our attention to love, but whether you are dating, engaged, married, or even single, the deeper question is not simply, “Do we love each other?” It is, “What kind of love are we building?”
There was a time when marriage was understood as a covenant that knit one man and one woman together, making both stronger, nobler, and more vibrant expressions of who God created them to be. They were better together than either had been on their own. The wedding was not the destination. It was the beginning of building something that would last.
Christ set the standard for love. His love gives, serves, and cherishes. It remains faithful when emotions fluctuate and circumstances grow difficult. That kind of love does not shrink a life. It enlarges it. It refines us and teaches us how to honor one another in a way that reflects our Creator.
If you want to rediscover God’s original design for marriage and relationships, Lisa and I have created a free course called The Story of Marriage, available on MessengerX. Whether you are single, dating, engaged, or married, your story is part of His greater story.
