Creating Experiences That Help Relationships Thrive
Earlier this year, I shared the first part of this video series by Priscilla Shirer. (She is one of my favorite Bible teachers.)
And in the second part of this series she discusses: the male ego, why guys don’t lead, submission, and sex.

Did you know that the phrase “can we talk” is a conversation killer for most men? Or that the best way to talk to your fella is while you are doing something else?
