You're doing it. You want to hear where you might need to grow. You want to see where you might not see yet. That was Meredith's heart and what led to their amazing transformation. 

It is God's kindness to lead us to repentance. 

He loves those He disciples. 

What are Christians...?

Who are Christ-followers...?

What is a Disciple of Jesus?

We're the ones who ask:

"Jesus, what do you want to teach me? What can I learn to be more like you? How can I walk more in your will today? Show me. Teach me. Guide me."

We are all broken and blind to many things.

(I am in that category, for sure!) 

We are all missing some things that others already know -- because God opened their eyes.

If you click this episode, I am proud of you.

You are seeking how you might need to change.

You are seeking what God might want to show you, too, just as He opened Meredith's eyes. 

This is a story of transformation from a woman who chose to see the world as God set it up. 

Not because it's easy. 

Not because it's "natural".

Not because the non-Christians agree with this mindset. 

But, because when the Lord spoke truth to her heart surrounding her marriage, she chose to have an open heart and be moved by His truth. 

May God speak to you through her story. 

She loves God.

She wants to share her story not because it's easy to share.

But, because it's her duty to share what God has done in her, and now, how He can do it in others, too. 

What is her story: 

Through many things, she started her young life away from God and was promiscuous.

So, sex was tainted from the beginning. When she got into marriage, she associated negative things with sex and now she is a repentant Jesus follower.

This sex-thing must not be important to God.

But then, her eyes were opened and God has done incredible things in her, her husband, and their family.   

Now she even has the desire for intimacy. True desire. She's enjoying it and desiring it for herself. 

It wasn't immediate, it was a process.

But you can get there, too.

I love you and I'm rooting for you.

Blessings,

Belah

And like Meredith, we'd love to join you on a (proven) journey, where you can come to a place of healing, joy, and even desire for the gift God gave Adam and Eve.

If you have temptations to jealousy, here's what I recommend. 

If you've listened to the transformation stories and become upset, angry, bitter, resentful...

I want to give you some ideas on what to do.

I get that way too.

I have certain triggers that throw me completely off. 

You might as well. 

I want to give you some ideas on how I deal with my triggers. 

And I want you to get really CURIOUS about what you can learn from these triggers to jealousy and how you can end the cycle.

We get to see miracles everyday and we'd love to help you.

I've been there. 

Angry because he wouldn't change. 

Hurt because he wasn't giving me what I needed.

And God was kind to me. 

He helped me to see that there were places in my heart that needed to be utterly changed. 

This journey to freedom in your marriage is one that should start with the heart. 

If you're a wife, you may see yourself in Emily's story. I know I do. 

If you're a husband, you can see more of how you can serve and love your wife, and also, have hope that God can do miracles in your marriage. 

Looking forward to you being blessed by God's kindness through this testimony of Jesus' transformation.

Blessings,

Belah

PPS - Last year, Belah was part of the special intimacy expert panel in the 2021 Sex Seminar (a huge success!). Well, she was honored to be invited back for the 2022 Sex Seminar, presenting alongside 22 other professionals in the field. Her topic is THE 8 BARRIERS WOMEN HAVE TO SEX. 

Next week, we'll be sending you a discount code for the entire seminar (which is packed full of value and helpful insights from all sorts of important intimacy topics) and we hope it will be a blessing for your marriage!

"I was pretty much done with life...I wouldn't have minded if I passed away. If this is all life has to offer, what's the point?"

A father of 7.

Deep sadness of his inner life. 

Deep pain.

Desperation.

But then... God did an incredible, incredible, incredible thing.

This title doesn't by any means tell the whole story. But I want you to hear the incredible result that God did.

(My other suggested title was "Zero/yr to 5x/wk and She Didn't Know He Did the Program!")

However, the process is what God did in His heart and the fruits showed up in his marriage and intimacy.

And after 10 months of nothing, she started initiating (A LOT) and loving him the way he receives love (in response to his change.)

My favorite part of this story?

That there are seven children growing up in a happy home. A man who no longer hopes for the end, but one who looks forward to what God is doing through and in his life.

That is a good God story.
