165 – Cuddle Up

Tony & Alisa — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 07:01:16 +0000

Cuddling up with your spouse after a great love making session can do wonders for both of you. Your skin is the largest organ on your body and when it is in contact with your spouse’s skin it can do wonders for your marriage.

The act of cuddling with your spouse releases the hormone oxytocin, “the feel-good hormone”, which can lead to overall happiness. Cuddling can also release endorphins, which are the same hormones that are released during a good workout.

This week Tony & Alisa share how the act of cuddling, which was prevalent in their early years of marriage, has faded over time. They get to the root of why cuddling has faded over time and what they are going to do to get more cuddling in after sex.

162 – Walk On Water

Tony & Alisa — Tue, 26 Mar 2013 07:01:06 +0000

There are times in your marriage when fear will dictate when and if you will move forward. Fear can stop you in your tracks and hold you back from what God truly wants from you in your marriage. It’s during these times of fear that you need to face what is holding you back and move forward.

Peter walked on water, but it was only when he got out of the boat did this happen. (Matthew 14:29-30) It can be difficult to get out of the boat sometimes in your marriage.

This week Tony and Alisa share times in their marriage when fear held them back and they didn’t want to get out of the boat. Other times they jumped out of the boat to experience God’s desires for them. They share both in this weeks show.

161 – I Don’t Care

Tony & Alisa — Tue, 19 Mar 2013 07:01:46 +0000

Love starts out as that butterfly feeling in the pit of your stomach; a physical emotion that washed over you when you first met your soon-to-be spouse. During this get-to-know-you stage you were swept up with everything they did with you, such as holding your hand, rubbing close to you, and those kisses. Your emotions were cranked to the hilt and everything was great.

You’re happy. You’re in love.

You get engaged, then married and as time passed the feelings of love began to disappear. Those fun things your spouse did early on in your courtship now bug you. The physical reaction you once had isn’t there any longer. Its great to have your spouse around and yet you have work, kids, and other activities that occupy you.

Even more time passes and real world issues cant be ignored any longer. You’re at a point where you don’t care about your spouse or your marriage.

Its at this moment that you need to realize that love is a verb. Love is not about that butterfly feeling, but in you showing your love through action.

This week we share how you can take your marriage from an attitude of “I Don’t Care” to one where you are taking action and showing your love.
