In less than a week, Sexperiment will begin to strengthen marriages, repair families and ultimately change the way people see the connection between God and sex. For too long, we have been falling for the world’s lies about what sex is. It’s time to get back to understanding the truth about this amazing gift – God’s truth!
Here’s just a sample of what you’ll find in our upcoming book.
Sex. For such a small word, it has an enormous influence on our lives. From the time we’re very young, sex is something we hear about, talk about, and think about—whether it’s in a healthy way or not. It’s in our music. It’s in our movies, television programs, magazines, and books. Conventional wisdom in the advertising industry is “sex sells.” If they want to sell a product, from shampoo to automobiles, they do all they can to get us to believe it will make us be more sexy, or get more sex. Yet, no matter what we may think we know about sex, so many people don’t understand the full effect it was designed to have.
The Sexperiment is a challenge that was created to help you and your spouse reconnect with what sex is supposed to be. The premise of the challenge is simple and clear: Have sex with your spouse once a day for seven consecutive days. It may not seem like a lot on its surface, but the implications of having sex for a week, as you will discover in reading this book, are much more intricate and will produce long-lasting results. For one week of your life, if you decide to take it on and get it on, the Sexperiment is designed to help you realize just how much sexual intimacy can do for your marriage.
Have you ever experienced a ‘perfect’ Christmas? If you’re like my family, the answer is “No!” It seems like some of the craziest things happen around Christmas. One of the most recent that comes to mind was just two years ago. My family and I got home from our many Christmas services only to find that the dogs had completely destroyed our living room!
Yet, even in the midst of all the chaos and confusion of that night, I realized something. It is often during the craziest times that we make our greatest memories.
Our family laughs about that night now. It certainly wasn’t perfect, but it was something we experienced together.
As you get ready to celebrate this Christmas—whether it is with family, friends or even strangers—don’t force Christmas to be ‘perfect’. Simply reflect on the fact that you are celebrating a Savior who already is!
Christmas cards, like our family’s this year, are interesting. Essentially, each photo is a single moment captured in time. But behind each picture is a wide range of circumstances; there’s a story to be told.
As we approach Christmas, we take time to celebrate that moment when God sent his son, Jesus Christ, to earth. But it doesn’t end there. Behind that moment is a vast array of circumstances; it’s the greatest story ever told!
