What do you do when one spouse longs for sexual intimacy and the other no longer seems interested?
In this conversation, we take a step back and ask a deeper question: What if the problem isn’t simply sex? What if we’ve reduced intimacy to something that happens in the bedroom while neglecting the attentiveness, presence, communication, tenderness, and trust that allow two people to truly open themselves to one another?
From a newlywed disagreement over “good bread” to the simple wisdom of not putting the cart before the horse, we explore why couples often misunderstand each other and how learning to enter the deeper places of the heart can change the way we love.
