Intimacy for Life
Protecting Attachment using Renewal Systems
The intimacy for life method involves emotional engagement, recreational and leisure partnering, shared spiritual practices and purpose, and physical and sexual affection.
We have to shift the stories and the emotions first before we get to the business of marriage.
There are three levels of communication in marriage:
1. Transactional
2. Monitoring Protests, and
3. Emotional Engagement
God’s design for sexual fulfillment was for mutual pleasure.
