- SWM 151 – AQ – Oral Sex Norms, Fantasy Guilt & Rekindling Passion
In this episode, we are tackling the subjects: – Do men enjoy cunnilingus after ejaculation? – Should I feel bad for refusing oral after anal? – My spouse says I should accept substitutes for sex – Feeling unloved due to lack of physical affection – Guilt over sexual desires shaped by past porn use – When one spouse wants BDSM and the other doesn’t – Sex is loving but not exciting—can it be fixed? – Why not have kids in your 40s? – Survey requests on mutual masturbation and handjobs - Lovense Ferri Review – A Discreet Little Spark for Married Play
A while back Lovense reached out to me to ask if I wanted to try one of their toys in exchange for a review. We were given the choice between the Ferri or the Lush 4 to try out, and after a little forum polling and back-and-forth, we ended up picking the Ferri—mostly because the idea of a discreet, wearable toy for public-but-private connection felt a bit too tempting to pass up. - SWM 150 – Control, sex and marriage
Last month, I watched a great video by Gary Thomas and his wife Lisa on how a controlling spirit can harm a marriage. It got me thinking: In Christian circles, we often struggle to define the difference between healthy leadership and damaging control—both in marriage and in our relationship with God. Why is it that surrendering to God is seen as good, but demanding control from a spouse is harmful? The key, I believe, is consent and love. When surrender is freely given and motivated by love, it can bring freedom and joy. But when control is forced, it leads to resentment and broken trust. In this post, I’m sharing some personal stories and lessons we’ve learned about navigating these tricky dynamics in marriage. - SWM 149 – My daughter’s speech – Transgenderism is a lie
Today we’re going to do something a little bit different. For those who have been listening for more than a year, you know that my kids are in 4H and every year they have to deliver a speech. For the last few years, my eldest daughter has been delivering speeches about transgenderism based on her research and her own personal experiences. So, as has been our tradition for the last three years, we wanted to share this one with you as well in the hopes that it might impact you. So this is my daughter’s speech titled Transgenderism is a Lie. - SWM 148 – 14 red flags your marriage is drifting towards divorce, affairs or lifelong unhappiness
Have you noticed how quickly disagreements turn into demonization these days? Whether it’s politics, religion, or even marriage, we’ve gotten stuck in a cycle of contempt—where the ‘other side’ isn’t just wrong, they’re evil. And it’s destroying relationships. I see this in my marriage coaching practice all the time: spouses who’ve spent years labeling each other as selfish, cruel, or hopeless. They roll their eyes, assign malicious motives, and show up just to prove their partner is the problem. Once that mindset takes root, digging out takes months—sometimes years. But there’s hope. When couples catch it early—before contempt hardens into habit—change can happen fast. Today, I’m sharing 14 warning signs that you’re heading down this dangerous path. Some might surprise you (like sarcasm or ‘harmless’ nicknames), but the last one? It’s the red flag you can’t ignore. Let’s dive in.
