You know you aren't communicating clearly with each other but it doesn't make sense to you why you aren't. It's like he speaks one language and she another. You speak the same language but apparently the words don't mean the same to each of you.In this program, Dr. Joe Beam and special guest Terry Cheatham explain things NOT to do when communicating with another person, things you should ALWAYS do, as well as how to understand what the other person is actually trying to tell you and how to clearly get across what YOU want to communicate.No, it's not rocket science, but it's amazing how many people mess it up. Maybe you've been one of those people. Maybe the person you care about is. Maybe both of you.The program begins at 9 p.m. Central time Tuesday night, April 12. If you w

Send us a text!What do you do when you've had major problems in your marriage and now want to try to reconcile?It's tougher to accomplish than most people think.It's great when a couple decides to put a marriage back together. However, without a valid understanding of what caused the trouble (and that usually means MUCH more than the final issue that became the focus of the marriage problems), many couples who try to reconcile run headlong into a wall of pain and frustration.For example, if the marriage hit crisis because of an affair, ending the affair doesn't necessarily mean that the underlying issues have been healed. What led to the affair? What weaknesses exist in either spouse? What relationship dynamics helped create the vulnerability? (This isn't to justify something such as an affair; it's to point out that some people think things are now fine because the affair ended BUT THERE ARE STILL ISSUES that haven't been dealt with.)That same principle a

Our purpose is to help couples in trouble find a new way, see each other in a different light, discover a path to love again. We call it the LovePath. Most of the couples who come to our intensive three-day workshops have one spouse who wishes to save the marriage and one who wants out. Nevertheless, we witness three out of four marriages turn around and not only stay together but learn to love each other again.However, that means that some marriages don't make it. It breaks our hearts for the spouse who wants to save the marriage...for the children who are affected...for the friends and family of both husband and wife.We believe that any marriage can be saved.

Another 15% are in the "low sex" category, which means they have sex with each other 11 to 25 times per year. That means 35% (or we can just round that to one out of three) married American couples between the ages of 18 and 59 make love to each other twice a month or less, and the majority of those are once a month or less.Notice that these aren't folks in the nursing home.Does making love this little have an effect on a marriage? On sexual health? On potential affairs? On use?Yes to all of the above.In this program, Joe Beam discusses how sex in a marriage is directly affected by the relationship the couple have. More than that, he discusses how to increase both the frequency of lovemaking and the enjoyment that both husband and wife can gain from it.For those couples where one spouse wants to do so
