Is it still possible to have a strong marriage when you've been having premarital intimacy? Dr. Gary Chapman says yes. God can forgive your sin, but you'll need the power of the Holy Spirit to help you abstain from any further intimacy until you're married. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Physical Intimacy Before Marriage

If your wife doesn't talk to you, it may be one of two things: 1. It just might not be her personality, or 2. She might be afraid of your reaction to what she says. Try to understand the "why", then you'll have some ideas on what you can do to make it easier for her to talk. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

She Won't Talk

Some dating couples spend more time preparing for their vocation than they do preparing for marriage. Prioritizing your preparation for marriage will lead to more success in every other aspect of your life. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Preparing for Marriage

When a couple is struggling in their relationship, it's easy to just give up. Recognize that Satan is trying to destroy your relationship. Commit yourselves to spending more time with each other. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Giving Up on a Relationship

When Christians spend time together in small groups to study the Scriptures and pray, it tends to stimulate growth. This is true for married couples as well. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
