It is never okay for a husband to go to the strip club.
A husband's trip to a strip club is a betrayal of trust and a violation of the sacred bond of marriage. It is not okay, and it is never acceptable.
A strip club is a place where women are objectified and degraded. It is a place where men go to pay for the attention and affection that they should be getting from their wives.
When a husband goes to a strip club, he is telling his wife that she is not enough. He is telling her that he is not satisfied with the love and intimacy that they share.
This is a devastating message for a wife to receive. It can damage her self-esteem and make her feel insecure in her marriage - and it is a sin before the Lord.
If you are a husband who is considering going to a strip club, please reconsider. Think about the pain that you could cause your wife. Think about the damage that you could do to your marriage.
It is not worth it.
Instead, focus on strengthening your marriage. Spend time with your wife. Tell her how much you love and appreciate her. Show her that she is the only woman you need.
Your marriage is too precious to risk. Don't let a trip to the strip club undermine the foundation of your marriage.

We received a really thought provoking question from a viewer a couple of weeks ago that we wanted to address in a full podcast. This is that podcast. Is it wrong to watch television shows or movies with "just a little bit of sex/explicit content in them? I mean, it isn't exactly porn, right? Let's get into that!

Nathan and Andrea have been taking a look at the "Intimacy Table" over the last several weeks. Of those four areas of intimacy (emotional, non-sexual physical, spiritual, and sexual) the one they get questions about more than any other is sexual intimacy. Today, Nathan and Andrea are going to dive deep into a passage in Paul's first letter to the Corinthians that discusses this topic in detail. But does it actually discuss MORE than just sex? Let's get into that!

Sexual intimacy is quite possibly the trickiest of all four legs of the Intimacy Table that is marriage. So many couples think that, because they have sex, they have sexual intimacy - yet so many marriages lack depth and, well, intimacy within their sexual relationships. Today Nathan and Andrea attack that head on and dig into what we can do as couples to continuously deepen the sexual intimacy within our marriages. Let's get into that!
