The show starts off today with an article on why women ‘crush’ on their pastors, and Mark and crew discuss a situation with a listener that falls into that category. Then he answers emails about men in children’s ministry not being allowed to change diapers or take kids to the bathroom because of safety concerns, another one about a crazy in-law situation, and a guy in Poland wants to know how you can know that your sex drives match without ‘test driving’ first. Mark also has strong words for a young couple in college who want to date long distance because “God says they aren’t to get married yet”.
A wife is tired of nagging her husband about housework and being involved with their kids. Mark addresses online dating and long distance relationships. A husband wants to stop his wife’s inappropriate behavior and her response is he too controlling. A woman shares her story of dating as a teenager and the embarrassing things her parents use to do and how thankful she is now.
On today’s show Mark discusses the definition of marriage, what to do when one spouse doesn’t want to save the marriage, advice on remarriage and blended families, Internet dating and long distance relationships, the importance of listening to your head and not your heart, taking the advice of others in your dating decisions, how couples ruin their marriages over “things”, the definition of “sex”, how to get your husband to help around the house, adult children being involved in their parents’ marriage, and how we can’t control the decisions of others.
