Podcast 9: Our Engagement Promise

Podcast 8: Intimacy

Hope is an important part of coping with change, and we covered that topic in the seventh podcast. The eighth podcast talks about how intimacy is vital to your marriage relationship. Intimacy is more than sex, can be experienced in every aspect of our relationship. Our sexual relationship is only a part of our total marriage relationship.
