Love is awesome. So awesome, it barely comes alone. When a couple makes love, it's not just excitement that happens, its babies as well. And babies, well, they are a whole new ball game. They introduce an incredibly challenging, super demanding, dynamic in relationships that some people opt out of it altogether. The enormous changes that happen to a woman, (And rarely unspoken, the man) during pregnancy can cause significant tension in the home. Here are seven things Men, as the leaders of their homes need to know and do to help women navigate this delicate season. 1. Her Sex Drive will change : Pregnancy introduces intense and often severe hormonal changes in her body. Her sense of smell is acutely keen, her weight here and there (and mostly there), and a whole lot of other things. For some women, (lucky fellas) her sex drive hits an all time high (Ah, these puns).

T he institution of marriage has been here since creation. But, lately it has taken a knock. Some statistics say 50% of all marriages will end in divorce. Marital infidelity is on an all time high. We hear horror stories from married couples that shock and perhaps even repulse some of us singles. There is also the push for same sex marriages, open marriages, and come we stay unions. Everywhere, it seems like marriage is NOT what we’ve always thought it to be. But why is this? What is marriage? What is the purpose of marriage? Is marriage for everyone? One of our generation’s greatest needs is to simply redefine marriage from God’s perspective, and help us with making informed choices whether we are married, single and searching, or wanting to live a single life for good. Read Genesis 2:15-24 We need to  get the pressure off marriage. It feels to me like every singles hangout or sermon is a coded message asking, Utaoa lini?  “When will you get mar...
