		<description><![CDATA[I read a lot of sex books.  The good kind, mind you.  The ones that explore sexual intimacy within the context of marriage.  Obviously, along the way, I stumble across phenomenal marriage books as well...books that not only cover sexual intimacy, but also offer priceless insights into all aspects of intimacy in marriage.

Such is the case with my latest read, Stripped Down: 13 Keys to Unlocking Intimacy in Your Marriage by Tony and Alisa DiLorenzo.

		<description><![CDATA[Let’s face it gals – we enjoy our time with our friends.  And I will be the first to sing the importance of having close relationships with safe female Christian confidantes.  All that being said, it’s worthwhile to dig a little deeper into this question: “Is it okay to talk with your friends about your sexual intimacy?”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jill Hart at www.cwahm.com encourages work-at-home women and is the co-author of  "So You Want to Be a Work at Home Mom."  Jill and I swap ideas every now and then and always looking for ways to learn and grow.

I recently wrote a post on her site titled Time with Your Husband -- Interruption or Opportunity.   While the message is geared to work-at-home moms, I do think there are nuggets of truth in it that reach to a broader group of wives.   Take a look and be encouraged.

		<description><![CDATA[Hey all... my friend Eric over at www.BetterHusbandsAndFathers.com recently allowed me to guest post on his blog.  Eric is doing a tremendous job of encouraging men on specific ways they can strengthen their marriages.

THANK YOU Eric!  We need more voices like yours.   Anyway, he let me do a little rambling on The Sexually Unavailable Wife.  Take a ponder.

		<description><![CDATA[My pal Stu over at www.TheMarryBlogger.com writes about "encouraging stupendous marriages." I love one of his recent posts, where he clarifies that a "stupendous" marriage is not a "perfect" marriage. Take a looky at his post when you get a chance, because he makes some fabulous points. (He has a tendency to do this.  I'm just saying).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A long time ago, my grandmother and I were talking about some of the differences between husbands and wives. I imagine I was lamenting about everything that I needed to get done and how such a list leaves me often feeling perpetually tired.  I was wondering if men feel this way too.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay, this post is probably going to get me in trouble. (Not exactly the headline you'd expect from a devout Christian girl like myself).

I don't know Paris Hilton personally. Certainly, how she has conducted herself publicly at times hasn't exactly been a shining example of  modesty.  Not judging; just making an observation. And certainly it goes without saying that I don't really have any idea what kind of wife she would be. Hang in there with me anyway (you're already reading the post; might as well keep reading).]]></description>
