Ohhhh, now here we go! I am pretty sure that somewhere, somehow...if you haven't seen this already, you will! So why not talk about it now!
A pastor named, Pastor Paul Wirth, from a church in Florida called, "Relevant Church" has offered a Fabulous New challenge to married people and single people. Oh its a challenge and a half babycakes! And I am LOVING it! Oh my word. For 30 days, married people get to work hard on their relationship..and have sex. Um, ok, where do I sign up? And for the singles...30 days without sex.
Here's an excerpt from the My Fox News Tampa article.
Fox News Tampa - A pastor has a new challenge for his parishioners. It involves sex - a subject that may be taboo in many congregations.
The Relevant Church in Tampa's Ybor City has issued a 30-day sex challenge.
"It's going to be tempting and awkward at the same time for sure," said parishioner Brent Cayson.
Single men and women can't have sex for 30 days, and married couples are urged to have it every day.
"If you look at studies, studies say in 30 days you can develop a habit," said Pastor Paul Wirth.
It definitely caught wives in the church by surprise.
"Our married people are far more fearful than our single people," said Wirth.
"Sex is about more than intercourse and that's what we're trying to tell people," said church member Jarret Haas.
Wirth has found biblical references
that he says suggest Jesus disapproved of pre-marital sex and promoted
sex in marriage. So, he believes people connect to God through
life-long commitment.
That's why he tells his single followers to abstain, and his married followers to indulge.
Wirth is a former Baptist. He
founded his non-denominational ministry three years ago. And he markets
his church by tackling unusual or controversial topics.
He's got blogs, worksheets, and videos on this entire 30 day challenge and he's all about the fun back into a marriage! Ooooh la la! Now that's what I call a good idea darling. Can't wait to talk with my hunky hubby about this one later tonight.
So let's hear your thoughts on this one. Come on, be daring and enter your thoughts by pushing the comment button below and giving your 3 cents worth! Cause you KNOW you have an opinion!
(feeling a bit juicy over the idea of 30 days of working on a relationship and having fabulous sex for 30 days with my hunky hubby! oh my...is that so taboo?)
I saw this on the news as well. Ofcourse my husband was all excited. It appears the site has been down since the report. I need to get my site on the news!

I believe great sex is one of the key factors in a marriage...without playful sex then everything else starts to go down the drain. Great post Jen!
