Infidelity is the ultimate betrayal in a marriage or other serious relationship. Especially in the case of marriage, where the commitment is made, the vows are declared and the oath is taken, an affair can spell a crushing blow to a spouse.  Sad to say, infidelity can even rear its ugly head in a Christian marriage.

Infidelity Is Not Always Physical

The damage left by infidelity is not limited to that caused by a physical relationship. Many times the infidelity can be on an emotional basis only. When one spouse turns to a friend or co-worker for an attentive ear, compliment, encouragement or support that is lacking at home, the initial connection is made on the emotional level. Even if it never goes beyond that, an outside person has been allowed into an area that should be reserved for your spouse only.

Online chat, email and text messaging has made it easier to engage in these types of adulterous acts. Pornography is another avenue that, at its very core is an act of unfaithfulness and can have catastrophic effects on a marriage.

Physical as well as emotional infidelity has also become more prevalent in our society as an increasing number of families have found it necessary for both husband and wife to enter the workplace where exposure and temptation is heightened.

What Causes Infidelity?

While these factors may increase the opportunities and the ease with which one might make the decision to have an extra-marital affair, they are not the underlying cause of the infidelity. There are any number of factors that could be involved in the decision to be unfaithful.  Problems at home can range from emotional to financial to sexual.  High levels of stress, isolation and loneliness, peer pressure and even one’s childhood experiences and surroundings can contribute to breaking faithfulness with a partner.

If infidelity does occur in your relationship you have a difficult decision to make. Infidelity can be the end…or it can be a new beginning. Either choice you make will take some work.

The Road After Infidelity

Walking away from the life the two of you have built together is not an easy task, especially with the psychological effects left by having your mate cheat on you.

Making the decision to restore the marriage may also seem to be an impossible undertaking when the betrayal of infidelity is present. But be assured, any relationship can be repaired if you are willing to work at it and follow good advice.

Should you choose to rebuild the marriage, the first step you must make is to determine the underlying cause that led to your partner’s infidelity. This will take some doing, but don’t stop till you find the root. Then begin to work on that part of your marriage.

Even though you were the victim and the one deeply hurt, playing the victim will not help the relationship to move forward. Likewise, neither will pointing the finger of guilt help you to fix what was broken.  If you are going to create a new beginning, you need to leave the past in the past. Though not easy, it will be a necessary part of the recovery process.

With time, healing will come, forgiveness will come, trust will be restored and you will find that your new marriage is stronger than ever before.  Remember, infidelity does not always mean the end.

Christian sex beliefs can and will vary from individual to individual. There are sex beliefs which may be right for some while others may consider them to be wrong or even sinful. Because of this, how would you know what is truly right and what is not when it comes to Christian sex? And once you’ve made the choice of what to believe, would you be able to effectively live by those beliefs?

Christian Sex Is Not A Sin

Here’s your first option. Try listening to the different views and open your mind to both sides. Know that Christianity is a vast body and though there is a common reference used by all Christians, the Bible, interpretations of its contents differs from one Christian sect to another, and even among believers in the same sect. Certainly there are some absolutes, but in reference to sex within the bounds of marriage, there is a lot of differing opinons. Sticking to one view without checking out other explanations can limit your Christian sexual life and lead to problems in your Christian marriage. There are instances where couples are led to believe that specific sexual positions and practices are sinful only to find out years later that the sexual positions in question are actually sound practices for Christians.

Christian Sex Guide? You’ve Got To Be Kidding!

Obtaining a good Christian sex guide could prove to be an excellent resource to have. Now I know what you may be thinking; “a sex manual for Christians?” “Isn’t that taboo, even sacrilegious?”  Before you jump to conclusions, I am not talking about anything pornographic in nature.  Even sexual positions can be illustrated in a tasteful fashion without compromising on Christian morals and standards. If you find it difficult to decide which sexual principles to apply, an appropriate sex guide for Christians will come in handy. Not only will it help in broadening your knowledge on sexual beliefs, it will also help you improve your sexual experiences, which is an important part of any marriage, even Christian marriage.

These sort of manuals and books offer wonderful tips and techniques for better Christian sex. There are lots of wonderful intimate techniques and ideas which are specifically intended for Christian couples. These ideas include discussions about the right positions as well as tricks and tips on setting the mood for an exciting intimate night with your partner. Without a doubt, your intimate sexual experience can improve a great deal with the kind of knowledge that these kind of readings offer.

After allowing yourself to be open to different views on the subject and reading a decent Christian sex manual, you would find that these are the two common denominators: safety and enjoyment. Sex for Christians should be safe and enjoyable. Safety is obviously a needed consideration in intimacy while a couple’s sex life is meant to be enjoyable in nature.

Christian Sex Involves Communication

Speaking of enjoyment, a married Christian couple is advised to communicate about their likes and dislikes. Communication is vital to any kind of relationship especially to a marriage. A relationship with open communication brings the couple closer with one another. In terms of sexual conversations, a good subject to ponder on are the aspects of sexual intimacy which are preferable and those that are not. This will help in better understanding your partner’s sexual needs, likes and dislikes.

There is a saying that goes like this: “A mind and a parachute are a lot alike.  The both must be open to work.” You would likely be hard pressed to find a Christian couple who does not wish to improve their intimate moments and sexual routines. It’s just normal for married couples to have those desires. Just remember you can experience satisfying and fulfilling Christian sex without putting your Christian beliefs aside.

Nowhere is it written that sex has to be boring or mundane for Christian couples.  After all, God is the creator of the sexual experience.  It was He who said “Be fruitful and multiply.”  As big, awesome and imaginative as my God is, I can’t imagine Him wanting and demanding that one sex act, one sexual position and only for one purpose is sex to be engaged in.  When was the last time you read Song of Solomon?

What do you desire in terms of your sexuality? What are you missing? Most likely, you wish to raise the bar of you and your partners’ sexual activities. Do not be burdened down with guilt if this is your desire as this is very normal and it keeps the relationship fresh and always exciting.

As a Christian wife, you might find yourself thinking of new ideas how to please your Christian husband. If you have thought of some ways on your own then great. But for those who cannot think of any, let me make a suggestion. To keep things surprising, why not have some fun by incorporating sex games into your relationship? You might be surprised how sex for Christian couples can include fun and games that are…well, sexual!

Sex Games For Christian Couples? Blasphemy!

I know, that was my first impression too but I was wrong. It turns out that Christian sex games are just normal and harmless, as long as you have trust and openness in your existing relationship. These sexual games provoke the mind in a good way. They include asking intimate questions that stimulate your partner in new and exciting ways. The mind is after all the most erogenous sexual organ of the human body. Sex, they say is primarily mental in nature, contrary to what many think.

You can also create a “do it yourself” homemade sexual accessory that your husband will surely love.

For many Christian couples and others as well, its easy to get tired of making love in the same bed every night. So why not change the scenery to spice things up a little?  As long as you are not breaking any civil laws or imposing on others rights, you can enjoy the sexual experience in places other than the marriage bed.

If what you are looking for are techniques to keep your Christian man wanting more, you can find many new ideas to surprise him with. The possibilities are endless for Christian couples to enjoy fun and fulfilling sex lives. To fully appreciate all those possibilities will take time, knowledge and practice (which by the way is the fun part). This is also good as it can help you develop a deeper relationship with not only your partner but with God himself.

Christian Couples – This Includes You Men Too!

And men, it’s not just the ladies who need to be exploring new and exciting ways to spruce up your sex lives. Women love romantic ideas.  Most women are far more in touch with their emotions and minds than what most of us men are. Sexual Fun and Games for Christian Couples will give you plenty of ideas to  the flames of passion in your Christian marriage.

Now I know there is a ton of information out there regarding how to excite your sex life, Christian or not. The problem with many of these is they are not meant for Christian couples who are very mindful of the Christian values they hold dear. Christian sex is just as fun and exciting, but more sensitive to what is immoral and not. The boundaries are more obvious when the material you are referencing is written by a Christian specifically for Christian couples.

With more knowledge comes a greater responsibility but it doesn’t mean it can’t be fun. So here it is, on a silver platter. Your future is in your hands and if you are motivated enough to keep a long, lasting and happy Christian marriage, these suggestions for Christian couples could very well be a key to help you along that path.

Don’t be afraid to try something different. Turbocharge your sex life. Kick in the after-burners and satisfy your spouse and yourself  in ways that will also be pleasing to God.  Sex for Christian couples can be awesome!

If you are one of thousands of Christian men that are having struggles in your Christian sex life, then this is for you. This is actually not that uncommon. Years of ignorance and false knowledge have turned sex for Christians into some sort of taboo. It’s not that we know so little, but rather that we know so much that simply isn’t so. It should not be that way. Christian sex should be encouraged and enjoyed by both Christian men and their spouses.

The Problem For Christian Men

Far too often when there is a problem in the bedroom, it is kept hush-hush. Christian men, and most all men for that matter, find it difficult to talk about such things. Women, fortunately find this much less intimidating. Keeping these struggles all under wraps will only affect the marriage in a negative way. The only way to solve any problem is to talk about it.

Many Christian Men Have Struggles

Many of these problems are born out of the battle between the flesh and spirit. It is fascinating to delve into the mind of married Christian men and study the internal conflicts between pleasing God and pleasing their wives sexually. Finding the balance between the two has been one of the most difficult jobs these men face, albeit unnecessary.

Christian men are well acquainted with this struggle. They want to know how to satisfy their wives and themselves, but often wonder if Christian sex allows for turning up the heat inside the bedroom. There is no shame in fanning the flames of intimacy as sex is as natural as the rising and setting of the sun. But what can you do if you are not that well versed in this area, as many, if not most Christian men are not? Well basically, you can research. No I do not mean renting out movies that neither you or your wife should be looking at, but reading some quality information on the subject can offer you great insight. There are an outstanding number of books on this topic that can guide you in your journey to exploring the physical joys of Christian sex.

Ultimate Christian Sex Library - An Invaluable Resource For Christian Men & Women

The mental, spiritual, emotional and physical act of making love, this is what Christian sex is really all about. Christian sex is much more than just fulfilling the physical pleasures brought on by having sexual intercourse; it is about the intimacy, love and passion being shared by a man and woman bound by the sanctity of marriage.

To attain the true essence of sex for Christians, there are some rules and self-behaviors that need to be practiced by Christian couples. Exclusivity, mutuality and a strong emotional relationship with one another are three of the essentials that must be maintained for fulfilling Christian sex.

Christian Sex Requires Faithfulness

Achieving real pleasure and satisfaction when having sex with your spouse is less likely if you are harboring guilt within you. It would and should be difficult to feel totally pleased if in the back of your mind you know that you have betrayed your partner’s trust by engaging in sex with someone else. For these reasons, exclusivity is a must for married couples. Without it, a couple’s sex life will suffer which can potentially lead to marriage dysfunction and divorce.

The intimacy derived from satisfying Christian sex is best achieved when both husband and wife are secure and comfortable with one another. Having multiple partners will inevitably result in creating a rift between the husband and wife. Not only does it introduce distrust into the marriage relationship, it also creates performance anxiety and comparison evaluations. Today, problems regarding adultery and sexual betrayal are unfortunately very common. It is in fact one of the top reasons given by married couples when they apply for divorce or annulment.

Pornography Defiles The Christian Sex Relationship

Infidelity in a marriage does not necessarily have to involve a third person, at least not in a physical sense. The proliferation and availability of online pornography has introduced a whole new dimension to unfaithfulness in marriage. While men are much more likely to be the ones lured into the dark world of porn, women are not immune to this temptation. There are many who foolishly believe that if a flesh and blood person is not physically involved in a sex act with them, they are not cheating on their spouse. The truth however is that viewing pornography in magazines or on the computer is infidelity, is highly addictive and will end up destroying your partner, your marriage and eventually yourself.

Mutuality is another important factor in Christian sex since men and women have significantly different views on sex. In most cases, men are the ones who desire more frequent sex and sexual play while women long for a more emotional connection which can only be attained by having intimate conversations and varying or inventive love making techniques. These differences can lead to problems in the bedroom over sexual positions and the frequency of making love.

This is where the importance of mutuality comes in. Christian couples must be able to practice showing mutual respect for each other. For the sake of intimacy, each partner has to make small sacrifices to have mutually agreeable sexual practices. For example, a Christian husband may need to give up some of his sexual fantasies and demands in order to show consideration for his wife. These kinds of sexual restraints may not be easy at first but if successfully done, they help in building sexual intimacy.

Christian Sex Principles Build Strong Emotional Bonds

Having a strong emotional bond bears a lot of significance in Christian sex. A strong relational component is vital to create a strong sexual intimacy for Christian couples. The pleasures of Christian sex are easily achieved with little effort when both the husband and wife feel strong emotional attachments. This factor really makes sex for Christians an act of true love and not simply a worldly pleasure.

Practicing these principles will go a long way in improving the sex lives of Christians. Not only do they prevent the sexual problems that are often encountered by couples, they also help in strengthening the marriage. But of course, nothing beats the four-letter-word which is key to all happiness, LOVE. If true love rests strongly in the relationship, Christian sex will flourish and whatever difficulties do surface will be able to be addressed and resolved.
