Sometimes people don’t want to talk about what’s right under their noses in their marriages and so of course that makes it the right topic for us to talk about here.  We talked about pornography before from a personal standpoint, in this episode we branch out a bit and talk about the impact it is having in the lives of our listeners, their spouses and their families.  It’s time to take a stand and recognize that until people are honest and open about this issue it’s going to remain a “little, dark secret”.

Are you ready?

So often in our marriages we are playing this invisible game where we keep track of everything our spouse does, comparing it to what we are doing to see who is the winner and who is the loser.  You are in a marriage NOT a game.  There cannot be a winner and a loser if you want your marriage to survive.  It’s time to stop keeping score and start making changes that are going to allow you to have deeper intimacy with your spouse.

“Never leave your partner, especially in a fire.”

We are a little behind the times but better late than never. This is an amazing movie that will dramatically impact you wherever you are in your marriage. At so many points throughout the movie we found ourselves moved by how true to life this was, how much it mirrored struggles that we had faced in our own marriage.

When you married your partner did you enter into a contract or a covenant? Have you made the decision to never leave your partner?

Are you aware of the destructive force that pornography can have in your marriage?

  • 28,358 individuals are viewing porn every second
  • Internet porn generated $2.84 billion in 2006
  • 70% of porn is viewed between the 9-5 eight-hour workday
    (LJ INdex, September 2007)

Pornography not only distorts your perception of your spouse, but it also creates unrealistic and unattainable expectations.  It is NOT harmless as so many want to believe.  Regain intimacy in your marriage by making your spouse your ideal lover.

XXXchurch is designed to bring awareness, openness and accountability to those affected by pornography.

Round-Up of Extraordinary Bloggers & Podcasters

by Tony & Alisa on February 16, 2010 · 5 comments

Since we launched ONE Alisa and I have been blessed to meet many fantastic bloggers and podcasters who have inspired us to become the best that we can. We thought it would be of benefit to many of you to check them out as well and hear what they have going on.

Natural Family Planning – Dustin is a fantastic writer with great insights on marriage, kids, and self-improvement.  I came across Dustin many months ago and what caught my attention from the beginning is his and his wife’s approach to Natural Family Planning.  Now this isn’t something we are going to do, but I found it very informative.

Porn And Marriage – Stu Gray from The Marry Blogger has written a wonderful series on Porn and the effects it has on a marriage.  I really commend Stu for stepping out on this subject as it is difficult to talk about.  Stu and his beautiful wife have recently completed a Eat Chocolate 30 Day Challenge and have started another 30 Day Challenge: Break the Routine.

How to Have Curl Your Toes Sex – The title got me and that was that.  I’ve been following Simple Marriage ever since.  It is awesome the way Corey is able to help couples to better understand sex in their relationships.  We were interviewed by Corey a couple of weeks ago for a future podcast on Simple Marriage.  We’ll let you know when it comes out.

Sexual Frequency: How Much Sex is Enough? – Many of you know how much sex Alisa and I have from listening to Episode 001 of our podcast or reading our blog, but Lisa asks her community what they think is enough.  Lisa is someone I’ve been following on Twitter for some time and she is a fireball of energy.  Check out Owning Pink.

Manage Your Money Challenge – Are you trying to get out of debt?  Need some help getting there?  Join Brad as he introduces different approaches and services to help you become debt-free.  Start or continue your journey and become debt-free.

Past Due RadioCoachRadio.tv – Derek Sisterhen and Justin Lukasaviage are two guys that are changing lives everyday with their financial coaching and business coaching podcasts.  Listen to these guys-it’s worth it.

Family From the Heart Podcast – Join Cliff and Stephanie Ravenscraft as they talk about their family from the heart.  Over the past several years Cliff has turned his hobby of podcasting to a full-time business.  We are very grateful to Cliff as he helped us get our podcast up and going.  You’ll enjoy these two.

We hope you will learn and benefit from these amazing folks.  If there are sites that you follow please let us know about them in the comment section below.
