Tell me about yourself
I am a 68 year old man starting a new business delivering marriage seminars around the country. I will teach couples how to have a sex life beyond their wildest dreams. (sadly there is no “school for sex” to teach men how to give their women great sex.) I will also teach them how to stop fighting forever. Sadly no one is teaching these valuable skills which don’t come naturally, what comes naturally is fighting.
What inspires you?
God inspires me and the fact that so many young girls are raped by mama’s new boyfriend or stepdad. The Bible talks about the lack of natural affection. This is so true with men with young girls in the house that they have not fathered.
What inspired you to become a marriage, relationship and sexual coach?
I was inspired to become a coach to solve the problems that traditional marriage counselors don’t solve. Couples fight about the big 3 money, sex and kids. Graduate school offers no sexual education for counselors so that they can’t and won’t help you with your sexual issues. Counselors also don’t teach conflict resolution skills either.
Why do you find adults need to be re-educated about sex?
Couples need to be re-educated about sexuality because often in church little girls are taught incorrectly that: “sex is bad, dirty and wrong and that good girls don’t do it”. By the time she is ready to embrace her sexuality she is often filled with negative harmful inhibitions that cripples her ability to fully embrace her sexuality. I recently read a blog by a woman who still feels guilty for having sex with her husband.
What is your favourite sex-positive message from the Bible that we never heard in a church? How would you encourage religious couples to view sex positively?
Favorite verse:
18 Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.19 [Let her be as] the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love. Proverbs 5:18-19
Ravished is just a Biblical word meaning GREAT SEX. Men also get great comfort from women’s breast. Too often women just lay there and let him nuzzle and suck on her breasts but don’t do anything to embrace him. Imagine how he would feel if she wrapped her arms around his head lovingly and encouraged him. Good sex is the glue that holds marriages together and gives them great joy. And God made it for our pleasure.
What are the main problems that you find couples need to talk about?
The classic problems are money, sex and kids.
How would you encourage couples to openly talk about their relationship problems? What are the keys to success in a happy marriage?
They need to be taught how to discuss without fighting.
How does divorce impact children?
How divorce affects children. Judith Wallerstein did a long term study of 200 kids growing up in a single parent family and the negative stats are literally staggering.
How can divorce be prevented?
Most people who get divorced really don’t want to get divorced they just want the pain to stop. Sadly marriage counselors don’t show them how and they mistakenly believe that their marriage can’t be saved. It can if they are taught correctly.
Tell me about the services that you provide? Where can people find you?
I used to do individual marriage relationship and coaching services. The problem with doing it one couple at a time does not begin to stem the avalanche of divorce in our country so I will be doing it in seminars where I expect at least 200 couples to attend the seminar or more. I am in the process of building a website, HAPPILY EVER AFTER SOLUTIONS LLC.
