I’ve recently come across some interesting research about women and the sexual issues they face, and what some of the best approaches are for helping women with these issues. It really boils down to women developing a sexual identity, or having that foundation for their intimate relationship in marriage.

We’re excited to announce our annual Couples Contest / Valentine’s Giveaway to the romantic Anniversary Inn. And to celebrate the release of And They Were Not Ashamed in eBook form (Kindle, Nook, etc.) we are adding a “prop” to the couples photos for you to send us.

In addition, there are some who may not be able to afford counseling or who have spouses that won’t talk to anyone about it…at least at this point.
So, the purpose of this post is to provide some first steps for individuals or couples while they are waiting for additional help (particularly those on my current waiting list) or for those who are on their own in trying to improve their intimate relationship.

Here is volume 1 of the new book “Understanding Women.” Good luck to all you men out there…you’re gonna need it! I’m just glad God saw fit to make men not so complicated! : )
