After experiencing God's healing in our marriage, we wanted to share with others what He had done for us. It gave purpose to our pain, and every opportunity we had to share reminded us of what God had done.

But this meant that we had to sometimes share very personal details of our journey. As we did this, we gave other couples "permission" to transparently share their stories. This mutual vulnerability created beautiful relationships as we became intimately known to others in a God-honoring way.

Join us as we read the final chapter of our award-winning book, Savage Marriage, Triumph over Betrayal and Sexual Addiction. You'll discover what we found out - that radical courage and vulnerability allowed us to participate in the healing of others.

P.S. - This episode also includes the Epilogue, where our youngest daughters provide their comments on how our coming clean affected them when they were only 11 and 9 years old. It's candid and fresh and will encourage you to also share your story with your kids.

After going through the pain of betrayal, many couples struggle with whether, when and how to reengage again sexually. In fact, some studies suggest that 20-30% of all couples live in a sexless marriage.

Is it really possible to create new feelings of sexual desire and intimacy after suffering the pain of betrayal?

Or to create sexual intimacy that never existed before?

Join us as we read Chapter 11 of our award-winning book, Savage Marriage, Triumph over Betrayal and Sexual Addiction. You'll discover what we found out - that God wants to be invited into your sexual journey, and with his help, your sexual intimacy can flourish no matter the pain you've gone through.

In Part 1 of Rey and Jane's story, Jane described how she forgave Rey for a 10-year relationship he had with her sister. Rey described how it was so hard for him to accept Jane's forgiveness, believing that forgiveness was only for people who were better than him.

Today, you're going to hear how this path of mercy, grace and forgiveness took them toward becoming battle partners. It's an amazing story, and you don't want to miss it!

We've served with Rey and Jane for the past five years at weekend intensives with Whatever it Takes Ministries, and they are real, raw and share transparently about what God's done in their marriage and family.

So, if you need a fresh touch from God in your marriage, listen to Rey and Jane, as they share how God brought them from a marriage that most would think could never recover, to a ministry that's blossomed over the past 19 years.

When you hear the word "temptation", what feelings do you have? Sin? Failure? Frustration?

All these feelings are normal, because few people know how to escape from temptation.

Join us for this podcast, where we share with you the game changers in our marriage that have allowed us to understand that temptation is a testing, but doesn't need to necessarily lead to sin.

If temptation has created fear and insecurities in your marriage, you don't want to miss this one!

After going through the pain of betrayal, many couples settle for just getting back to a functional marriage, but not one that's emotionally intimate.

Is it really possible to recover feelings of emotional connection?

Or to create emotional intimacy that never existed before?

Join us as we read Chapter 10 of our award-winning book, Savage Marriage, Triumph over Betrayal and Sexual Addiction. You'll discover what we found out - that empathy and compassion are the gateways to emotional intimacy.

Once we began to see one another's back story and understand why we did what we did, God allowed feelings of empathy and compassion to spring up, taking us toward a level of emotional intimacy we'd never before experienced.

We'd always believed that emotional and sexual intimacy were the keys to a great marriage. But when our marriage broke down after 28 years, we wondered what happened.

Was it possible that there was more to marriage than emotional and sexual intimacy, and we had missed it all these years?

Join us as we read Chapter 9 of our award-winning book, Savage Marriage, Triumph over Betrayal and Sexual Addiction. You'll discover what we found out - that spiritual intimacy with one another was the missing part of our relationship.

Once we began cultivating our spiritual relationship with one another, God began showing up in supernatural ways we had never before experienced.

We had a lot of ground together after Phil "came clean" seven years ago. Our 28 year marriage was functional, but we still felt like roommates, always wanting more, but settling for less. And we thought everyone else was in the same boat.

But seven years ago, we discovered three things that have made all the difference, and we believe these three things can take you from feeling like roommates, to sensing fulfillment and intimacy again.

Join us as we discuss our journey, and how you can start your own journey of transformation in your marriage.
