Looking at Life and Love through God's Eyes
Single Life
We all have dreams of what we think our life could be like. One of my modern romance dreams was to have a high school sweetheart or a childhood friend that I married. How wonderful to marry a person that you’ve known for most of your life! You would be forever surrounded by people who had known you since you …
Married Life, Sex
In God’s eyes, sex is only supposed to happen within marriage. We talked a little bit about this in last week’s post, but I wanted to go a little deeper.

Married Life, Single Life
First off, it feels a little weird as a married person to tell you that sex is not a right. It feels a bit like a person gorging on cheesecake telling a person who’s fasting that dessert is not a right. It’s true, but it feels a little weird to say currently. That’s not to say this issue isn’t still …
