To Have and to Hold (Marriage Vows Series)

To Have and to Hold (Marriage Vows)

One of the most misunderstood phrases in the marriage vows is “to have and to hold.” This statement is more powerful than many realize. So what does it mean exactly? Today’s episode explores one of the most important facets of a healthy marriage. To be honest, I didn’t really take this phrase seriously when I got married. Many couples don’t. The wedding vows, in general, can often be just another part of the ceremony that doesn’t get much attention. However, in making a lifelong commitment to someone, every word should be taken seriously. There should be a weightiness, if you will, to our words.

In a nutshell, to have and to hold is all about our sexual intimacy. Too many couples are struggling in this area unnecessarily. That’s why I’m giving you four easy-to-remember tips to jump start or restart your sex life.

4 Keys to Jump Start or Restart Your Sex Life

Be intentional
Be interested
Be inventive
Be intimate

Be sure to listen to the full episode to hear additional tips on these four points and more!
