Demille type romance.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I'm talking this is a magnificent romancer.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Yeah, I'd say this guy either has a lot of time on his hands and too much money, or he is the King of Romance.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Well, you got both of them \u2013 the wealthiest, wisest man who ever lived \u2013 Solomon \u2013 did that in Song of Solomon, chapter 3.\u00a0 And he created this magnificent processional, I think, as a part of wooing, romancing, valuing, adoring his wife.\u00a0 And, in the process, Bob, he put you and me completely under a pile.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> This must have been before they were married, because certainly after they were married, he went right to the remote control.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Well, actually, Bob, I think what this was, this was actually their wedding day.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Yeah?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> And I can tell you from reading the rest of the book, it wasn't all downhill from here.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> He didn't let up, huh?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Solomon, he was a romanticist.\u00a0 If you want to get some tips on romance, go to the Song of Songs.\u00a0 It is the most romantic book probably that has ever been written.\u00a0 And, you know, we have with us in the studio today the only guest that we have ever had here on the broadcast where so many listeners wrote in and asked not only that they come back \u2013 Linda Dillow and Lorraine Pintus \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong>\u00a0 \u2026 back on the broadcast, and as I welcome you back, ladies, you need to know that we had listeners actually write us and tell us that they wanted you back on the broadcast, but they didn't want Bob and me to be there.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> So \u2013 we'll see you all, and have a great program, okay?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> We'll see you.\u00a0 Actually, that's \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> That was my mother who wrote in.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I wondered where that came from.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Why doesn't she like me?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> She hasn't met you yet, Bob.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> You're a man!\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> That's right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Well, as you remember, a couple of years ago, we had them on the broadcast, and it was about their book, \"Intimate Issues,\" and the response was overwhelming.\u00a0 In fact, you guys have sold more than 50,000 copies.\u00a0 You are now holding seminars and retreats all around the country to women on this subject of romance and wives being better at this.\u00a0 It's been a wonderful response, right, ladies?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> It's been an incredible response, Dennis, and we continue to be overwhelmed, but it's time for the church to talk about what God has talked about, and He's \u2013 as you said, in the Song of Solomon he's made it very clear that intimacy is something that we can talk about.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Well, Lorraine and Linda live in Colorado Springs.\u00a0 Lorraine is the proud mom of two daughters, and she and her husband, Peter, lead Hearts at Home Ministries, which is a ministry encouraging marriage and family relationships.\u00a0 She speaks, writes.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tLinda and her husband have served for many years overseas.\u00a0 Linda wrote a book a number of years ago that, if you've got one, it's an antique.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> You need to know I've got a picture of my wife on our honeymoon reading Linda's book, \"Creative Counterpart,\" because there wasn't a whole lot available back when we got married.\u00a0 That was one of the great books, and Mary Ann was ready to be a creative counterpart.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> If you've got one, it's a collector's item, but if you don't have \"Creative Counterpart,\" you can get their latest book, \"Intimate Issues,\" which is a great book for every woman.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd, Bob, I think some of our younger listeners right now need a little bit of maybe an encouragement to leave, because we're going to talk about romance today.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Moms and dads are going to need to encourage the younger listeners that parts of the broadcast we're going to be talking about husbands and wives and love and marriage and romance, and some of that may not be appropriate for our younger listeners.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> That's right \u2013 we have created a resource here at FamilyLife that, Bob, I think the married couples who listen to our broadcast really like this.\u00a0 It's called \"Simply Romantic Nights.\"\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> It's actually an update of something that our listeners over the years have told us they really like.\u00a0 It's a kit for a year's worth of creative romance for your marriage.\u00a0 There is a little 88-page book in the box that gives you suggestions and thoughts about sparking romance in your marriage.\u00a0 There are a dozen different date ideas in here for a husband to execute over the course of a year with his wife and a dozen different date ideas for a wife to execute for her husband so that once a month each of you are doing something special and creative in a romantic evening together.\u00a0 And each of these dates is going to spark some intimate conversation, and some of these dates may actually go beyond conversation to the full expression of a husband and wife becoming one.\u00a0 Did I say that appropriately, do you think?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I think you did.\u00a0 I guess I want to ask you, Linda, first of all, why is romance so important to married couples?\u00a0 Our listeners have heard me talk about this on a number of occasions, but you really believe it is important, don't you?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> I am absolutely convinced it's important, and it's important for the wives and for the husbands.\u00a0 The sexual relationship in the marriage is certainly not the most important part of marriage.\u00a0 It's like the icing on the cake of the marriage, and when that is really wonderful and exciting, it just adds such a spark to the marriage.\u00a0 When it's not good, it becomes the most important thing, and all the focus goes there.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd so whether the romance is just talking or if it involves the sexual relationship, it's important, and people are busy today, they need creative ideas, and that's what this product does.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I think they are busy, and I think today especially, as we focus on a man's responsibility, there are undoubtedly a number of men who listen to our broadcast who need ideas.\u00a0 They need fresh reminders that they are to carry this romantic banner in their relationship, and you ladies, in order to help men remember their responsibility, have created an acrostic \"romantic,\" where you take each letter of the word \"romantic,\" and you give men tips, instruction and education about how they can better lead and love their wives in this all-important area.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tNow, the first is \"R.\"\u00a0 What does that stand for, Lorraine?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> For the man it stands for \"Romancer.\"\u00a0 We have a different R for the ladies, but the reason that we chose \"Romancer\" is that this is an intentional thing you have to do, especially in our busy society.\u00a0 Men need to figure out intentionally how to romance their wives.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThere is an over-framing verse that we set for both the men and women, and it is 1 Corinthians 7, verse 3, and in the message it says this \u2013 \"Marriage is a decision to serve the other whether in bed or out of bed.\"\u00a0 And what we did is, we took that verse, and we focused in for the women how they can serve their husbands in bed and for the men to focus on their wives, how they can serve their wives out of bed.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> We really speak two different languages when it comes to romance, don't we?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Absolutely.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> And so for a man to begin the process of being a romantic, to use the acrostic that you all use, he has to start with the idea of romancing his wife, and he may think of that in sexual terms, but you're saying he needs to pull back from that and think of it in non-sexual terms.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Exactly.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong>\u00a0 And the goal of the romance for the husband is to coax forth his wife's femininity.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Now, how do I do that, as a husband?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Well, I'll give you an example from a recent conference that Linda and I had done.\u00a0 I came back from the conference travel-weary, and when I walked in the door, my husband gently took me by the hand, and he led me in the bathroom, the bathroom door was closed, and on the outside of the bathroom door was a sign that said, \"Sparky's Retreat.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tNow, I need to explain that my husband calls me \"Sparky,\" I call him \"Flint\" because when we got married, our pastor said he felt like we would be spark on flint and spur each other on to good things.\u00a0 So those are our nicknames for each other \u2013 so \"Sparky's Retreat.\"\u00a0 The door was shut.\u00a0 I opened the door and there on the counter was a bubbling fountain, one of those tabletop fountains, twinkle lights all over the room, candles lit all around the bathroom, a waiting bubble bath, music, and he said, \"Honey, you slip into the bubble bath.\u00a0 I'm going to bring in some buffalo wings, and you just relax.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tHe gets a 10 \u2013 a 10!\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I was just thinking that I'm resigning as the host of the broadcast of FamilyLife Today because I'm a dud.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> I want to know who thought this idea up for him, and obviously it was another woman.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> But I have to tell you what that did for me, as a woman.\u00a0 I'm weary, and I slip into that bubble bath, all of a sudden, I relax, I'm ready to be a wife and a mother again.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Mm-hm, and, you know, a lot of men are listening right now, and they're thinking, \"Where did he think of that?\u00a0 How did he do that?\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Actually, it was in this great book called \"Intimate Issues,\" that he read.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> He read your book?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> That's it!\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> So you'd given him a few tips along the way.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> So you didn't mind if he followed your instructions?\u00a0 It's not that a man has to be creative on his own, it's that he has to care.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Yes, and the fact that he took the time and the energy to do that.\u00a0 To see that's what I needed when I got home.\u00a0 Not, when I walked in the door, \"Here's 10 phone calls you need to return, here's the mail that's stacked up since you've been gone and, by the way, the kids had a fight.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Linda, I'm going to ask you a very personal question at that point \u2013 how does Jody affirm you in your femininity as a woman?\u00a0 Because there's a lot of young men out there and, as far as that goes, a lot of older married men, as well, who could learn, I think, from listening to a woman whose husband has called that out from her.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> My husband does things like Lorraine just talked about.\u00a0 He arranges opportunities for me to relax, for me to rest.\u00a0 For our anniversary this year, he bought, at great expense and after several hours of searching over the Internet, a massager for my back because of a car accident.\u00a0 And several times a week, he will just say \"Honey, you lay down.\u00a0 I'm putting this machine on,\" and he just sits and talks to me, and the whole process just makes me feel soft and warm.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> There is a second step, though, as you outline it again in the acrostic \u2013 you go from romancing your wife to offering to help and, Dennis, you've heard me tell this before, but we were in a Bible study together one time, Mary Ann and I were.\u00a0 We had been married probably 10 years, and they asked the question, \"What's the most romantic thing your husband has done for you lately?\"\u00a0 And I couldn't wait to see what Mary Ann was going to come up with.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWell, when it got to her turn, she said, \"The other night Bob was watching TV, and I was in doing the dishes, and without me saying anything, he got up and turned off the TV and came and started drying the dishes.\"\u00a0 And I looked at her and said, \"No, honey, they asked about romantic things.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> No, that qualifies as foreplay, Bob. That touched her heart.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Whoa!\u00a0 Hold it!\u00a0 We just had some folks slam on their breaks driving in rush hour traffic \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Going home to dry dishes right away.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> They hit their signal, and they're making a U-turn right in the road.\u00a0 You said what, Linda?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> I said drying dishes qualifies as foreplay.\u00a0 That touches the inner core of a woman's heart.\u00a0 That makes her feel loved.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> What I came to realize in that experience is I was saying to Mary Ann \u2013 I wasn't just drying dishes, I was saying, \"I know where you live, I know what life is like for you, and I'm here to be a companion in the midst of that.\"\u00a0 And so it did go beyond whether the dishes got dry or not.\u00a0 There I was, standing alongside saying, \"I understand a little bit about your life and your world, and I want to enter into it with you.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> And, you know, Bob, this goes back from the very creation of time.\u00a0 God created the male and female, and from the beginning, He created a woman to be relational.\u00a0 This companionship element is critical to her.\u00a0 She was taken from Adam's side, from the flesh, and created to be a helpmate.\u00a0 So, as a woman, everything I do I want that relationship, I want that companionability.\u00a0 So when you said you wash dishes, and you come alongside Mary Ann, that's being a companion, and she feels that oneness and is drawn to you.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> So, in addition, Dennis, to romancing our wives, we need to offer to help.\u00a0 That's what the \"O\" is.\u00a0 Men need to step up and say, \"How can I help?\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> That's right, and whether it's yard work, housework, the laundry, putting the kids to bed \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> I knew you were going to say that one.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Mm-hm.\u00a0 I can remember so clearly when we had three children, the oldest was three, and I was a walking zombie.\u00a0 Jody sent me to the doctor to find out what was wrong with me, because I was so tired.\u00a0 The doctor said I was fine.\u00a0 So Jody took me out for coffee, and he said, \"Okay, there is something going on here.\u00a0 I want you to tell me everything you feel responsible for.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd we made a list \u2013 75 things on the list that I felt responsible for.\u00a0 He looked at it, and he said, \"Well, no wonder you're tired.\"\u00a0 That night he committed to me \u2013 he said, \"Honey, I know you make a list of every day of what you want to get done but, from now on, I'm coming home, and you tell me whatever you didn't get done, and I do it for you.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd he did that, whether it was clean the bathroom, mop the kitchen floor \u2013 whatever I didn't get done with those little, tiny children, he did for me.\u00a0 Do you know what that did to my heart?\u00a0 I felt like he'd gotten behind my eyes and saw my life.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tNow, does he still do that?\u00a0 No.\u00a0 He didn't do it when the children were a little bit older, and I wasn't so tired.\u00a0 But when I needed that help, he offered to help, and that just made me love him so much.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> You know, what you're describing is the 1 Peter 3:7 man.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Exactly.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> \"Husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way so that your prayers may not be hindered.\"\u00a0 And when you described him as getting behind your eyes, at that point Jody understood your needs.\u00a0 And, as we talk about romance, Bob, it's interesting \u2013 some men may have felt like we left the subject of romance, and we have now moved on to a \"Honey-Do List\" somewhere.\u00a0 But that's not the case.\u00a0 We are still all over the subject of romance, right?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> That's right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Bob and Dennis, when Jody did that for me, it made me want to get behind his eyes and see what his needs were and how I could love this man who was loving me so much. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> That's one of the goals of the articles in the \"Simply Romantic Nights\" collection is to help a woman get behind her husband's eyes and see what he needs in bed and to help a husband get behind his wife's needs and see what she needs around her environment.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> That's really what's in the projects that are in there, as well.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Yes.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> The ones that are from a man's perspective will help orient a man toward how he can appropriately get behind his wife's eyes and, for a wife, it sends her in the other direction.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Right, and I don't know if we talked about it, but each one is self-contained, 24 very creative ideas.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Twelve for the men \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> And 12 for the women.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> And we see these 24 ideas as steppingstones to intimacy for that year.\u00a0 We build, really, an altar of memories every year to our marriage, and marriage is a long journey.\u00a0 And so for this year of time, these 24 ideas are going to provide beautiful memories and build an altar toward intimacy.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> You know, we've only gotten to \"RO\" on the broadcast today.\u00a0 There's a whole \"MANTIC\" left.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThat we didn't get to.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> \"MANTIC!\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> That's why we pay Bob the \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Well, I'm just saying we've still got a ways to go as we work our way through this week.\u00a0 I want to encourage our listeners, though, to go to our website, FamilyLifeToday.com, and get information about the \"Simply Romantic Nights\" collection that our team has put together.\u00a0 This is a creative tool that we've designed to help a husband and a wife express their love for one another in some very special, fun, romantic, creative ways over the next 12 months.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThere is a date card for guys to use each month, a date card for the ladies to use each month, and we spell out for you what your date can look like.\u00a0 And, of course, you want to improvise or do your own thing, that's fine, but this gives you a starting place so that you can have a fun night out together as a couple.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThe collection, again, is called \"Simply Romantic Nights.\"\u00a0 The information about it is on our website at FamilyLifeToday.com.\u00a0 There is also information there about the book that Linda and Lorraine have written for women called \"Intimate Issues.\"\u00a0 This is a very helpful book for women on the subject of romance and passion and the marriage relationship, and I know you have talked to thousands of women over the years who have benefited from the way you tackled the questions in this book \u2013 21 questions and answers \u2013 the questions women ask most often about the issues of romance and intimacy in marriage.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAgain, the book, \"Intimate Issues,\" and the \"Simply Romantic Nights\" collection are available in our FamilyLife Resource Center at FamilyLifeToday.com.\u00a0 There is also information available there about the FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conferences that are kicking off not this weekend but the following weekend.\u00a0 We're going to kick them off Valentine's weekend and, of course, they continue through the spring, but if you'd like to have a special Valentine's weekend together, we're going to be at the Hershey Lodge in Hershey, Pennsylvania; we're going to have a conference taking place in Washington, D.C. that weekend; one at the Gaylord Texan Resort in the Dallas\/Fort Worth area; one at a resort in Albuquerque, New Mexico; and I think there are three or four other conferences Valentine's weekend.\u00a0 Again, all the details are on our website at FamilyLifeToday.com.\u00a0 And if that weekend doesn't work, there are other conferences coming up throughout the spring.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tPlan to attend a fun, romantic weekend getaway for couples this spring.\u00a0 The FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conference where you can learn to love like you mean it.\u00a0 All the details are on the Web at FamilyLifeToday.com or call 1-800-358-6329 for more information.\u00a0 That's 1-800-F-as-in-family, L-as-in-life, and then the word TODAY, and when you call, someone on the team can answer any questions you have about the conference or they can make arrangements to have the resources we've talked about today sent to you.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tYou know, one of the most helpful books that has been written over the last several years on the subject of marriage is a book by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs called \"Love and Respect.\"\u00a0 Many of our listeners are familiar with that book.\u00a0 They may have seen it in bookstores, and we had an opportunity a while back to sit down with Dr. Eggerichs and to talk with him about the importance of love and respect in a marriage relationship.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWe have that conversation recorded on a couple of audio CDs, and we thought that during the month of February that would be a great resource to make available to listeners who help support the ministry of FamilyLife Today with a donation of any amount.\u00a0 We are listener-supported, which means that your financial gifts to this ministry are what keep us on the air in this city and in cities all across the country, and we appreciate your generous financial support.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tIf you are making a donation to FamilyLife Today online, and you would like to receive the \"Love and Respect\" CDs with Dr. Emerson Eggerichs, all you have to do is type the word \"respect\" into the keycode box, and we'll make sure that the CDs get sent to you.\u00a0 Or you can call 1-800-FLTODAY, make your donation over the phone and, again, just ask for the \"Love and Respect\" CDs, and we'll make sure they get sent to you. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWe do appreciate your financial partnership with us here at FamilyLife Today, and it is great to hear from you.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWell, tomorrow we're going to continue our conversation with Linda Dillow and Lorraine Pintus as we talk about romance and passion and intimacy in marriage, and I hope you can join us back as we move from talking about \"RO\" to talking about what makes a \"MANTIC.\"\u00a0 [chuckles] That was pretty bad.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tI want to thank our engineer today, Keith Lynch, and our entire broadcast production team who are all in the studio just moaning at that bad pun that I made.\u00a0 On behalf of our host, Dennis Rainey, I'm Bob Lepine.\u00a0 We'll see you back next time for another edition of FamilyLife Today.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tFamilyLife Today is a production of FamilyLife of Little Rock, Arkansas \u2013 help for today; hope for tomorrow.

Demille type romance.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I'm talking this is a magnificent romancer.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Yeah, I'd say this guy either has a lot of time on his hands and too much money, or he is the King of Romance.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Well, you got both of them \u2013 the wealthiest, wisest man who ever lived \u2013 Solomon \u2013 did that in Song of Solomon, chapter 3.\u00a0 And he created this magnificent processional, I think, as a part of wooing, romancing, valuing, adoring his wife.\u00a0 And, in the process, Bob, he put you and me completely under a pile.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> This must have been before they were married, because certainly after they were married, he went right to the remote control.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Well, actually, Bob, I think what this was, this was actually their wedding day.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Yeah?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> And I can tell you from reading the rest of the book, it wasn't all downhill from here.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> He didn't let up, huh?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Solomon, he was a romanticist.\u00a0 If you want to get some tips on romance, go to the Song of Songs.\u00a0 It is the most romantic book probably that has ever been written.\u00a0 And, you know, we have with us in the studio today the only guest that we have ever had here on the broadcast where so many listeners wrote in and asked not only that they come back \u2013 Linda Dillow and Lorraine Pintus \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong>\u00a0 \u2026 back on the broadcast, and as I welcome you back, ladies, you need to know that we had listeners actually write us and tell us that they wanted you back on the broadcast, but they didn't want Bob and me to be there.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> So \u2013 we'll see you all, and have a great program, okay?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> We'll see you.\u00a0 Actually, that's \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> That was my mother who wrote in.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I wondered where that came from.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Why doesn't she like me?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> She hasn't met you yet, Bob.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> You're a man!\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> That's right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Well, as you remember, a couple of years ago, we had them on the broadcast, and it was about their book, \"Intimate Issues,\" and the response was overwhelming.\u00a0 In fact, you guys have sold more than 50,000 copies.\u00a0 You are now holding seminars and retreats all around the country to women on this subject of romance and wives being better at this.\u00a0 It's been a wonderful response, right, ladies?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> It's been an incredible response, Dennis, and we continue to be overwhelmed, but it's time for the church to talk about what God has talked about, and He's \u2013 as you said, in the Song of Solomon he's made it very clear that intimacy is something that we can talk about.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Well, Lorraine and Linda live in Colorado Springs.\u00a0 Lorraine is the proud mom of two daughters, and she and her husband, Peter, lead Hearts at Home Ministries, which is a ministry encouraging marriage and family relationships.\u00a0 She speaks, writes.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tLinda and her husband have served for many years overseas.\u00a0 Linda wrote a book a number of years ago that, if you've got one, it's an antique.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> You need to know I've got a picture of my wife on our honeymoon reading Linda's book, \"Creative Counterpart,\" because there wasn't a whole lot available back when we got married.\u00a0 That was one of the great books, and Mary Ann was ready to be a creative counterpart.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> If you've got one, it's a collector's item, but if you don't have \"Creative Counterpart,\" you can get their latest book, \"Intimate Issues,\" which is a great book for every woman.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd, Bob, I think some of our younger listeners right now need a little bit of maybe an encouragement to leave, because we're going to talk about romance today.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Moms and dads are going to need to encourage the younger listeners that parts of the broadcast we're going to be talking about husbands and wives and love and marriage and romance, and some of that may not be appropriate for our younger listeners.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> That's right \u2013 we have created a resource here at FamilyLife that, Bob, I think the married couples who listen to our broadcast really like this.\u00a0 It's called \"Simply Romantic Nights.\"\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> It's actually an update of something that our listeners over the years have told us they really like.\u00a0 It's a kit for a year's worth of creative romance for your marriage.\u00a0 There is a little 88-page book in the box that gives you suggestions and thoughts about sparking romance in your marriage.\u00a0 There are a dozen different date ideas in here for a husband to execute over the course of a year with his wife and a dozen different date ideas for a wife to execute for her husband so that once a month each of you are doing something special and creative in a romantic evening together.\u00a0 And each of these dates is going to spark some intimate conversation, and some of these dates may actually go beyond conversation to the full expression of a husband and wife becoming one.\u00a0 Did I say that appropriately, do you think?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I think you did.\u00a0 I guess I want to ask you, Linda, first of all, why is romance so important to married couples?\u00a0 Our listeners have heard me talk about this on a number of occasions, but you really believe it is important, don't you?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> I am absolutely convinced it's important, and it's important for the wives and for the husbands.\u00a0 The sexual relationship in the marriage is certainly not the most important part of marriage.\u00a0 It's like the icing on the cake of the marriage, and when that is really wonderful and exciting, it just adds such a spark to the marriage.\u00a0 When it's not good, it becomes the most important thing, and all the focus goes there.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd so whether the romance is just talking or if it involves the sexual relationship, it's important, and people are busy today, they need creative ideas, and that's what this product does.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I think they are busy, and I think today especially, as we focus on a man's responsibility, there are undoubtedly a number of men who listen to our broadcast who need ideas.\u00a0 They need fresh reminders that they are to carry this romantic banner in their relationship, and you ladies, in order to help men remember their responsibility, have created an acrostic \"romantic,\" where you take each letter of the word \"romantic,\" and you give men tips, instruction and education about how they can better lead and love their wives in this all-important area.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tNow, the first is \"R.\"\u00a0 What does that stand for, Lorraine?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> For the man it stands for \"Romancer.\"\u00a0 We have a different R for the ladies, but the reason that we chose \"Romancer\" is that this is an intentional thing you have to do, especially in our busy society.\u00a0 Men need to figure out intentionally how to romance their wives.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThere is an over-framing verse that we set for both the men and women, and it is 1 Corinthians 7, verse 3, and in the message it says this \u2013 \"Marriage is a decision to serve the other whether in bed or out of bed.\"\u00a0 And what we did is, we took that verse, and we focused in for the women how they can serve their husbands in bed and for the men to focus on their wives, how they can serve their wives out of bed.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> We really speak two different languages when it comes to romance, don't we?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Absolutely.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> And so for a man to begin the process of being a romantic, to use the acrostic that you all use, he has to start with the idea of romancing his wife, and he may think of that in sexual terms, but you're saying he needs to pull back from that and think of it in non-sexual terms.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Exactly.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong>\u00a0 And the goal of the romance for the husband is to coax forth his wife's femininity.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Now, how do I do that, as a husband?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Well, I'll give you an example from a recent conference that Linda and I had done.\u00a0 I came back from the conference travel-weary, and when I walked in the door, my husband gently took me by the hand, and he led me in the bathroom, the bathroom door was closed, and on the outside of the bathroom door was a sign that said, \"Sparky's Retreat.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tNow, I need to explain that my husband calls me \"Sparky,\" I call him \"Flint\" because when we got married, our pastor said he felt like we would be spark on flint and spur each other on to good things.\u00a0 So those are our nicknames for each other \u2013 so \"Sparky's Retreat.\"\u00a0 The door was shut.\u00a0 I opened the door and there on the counter was a bubbling fountain, one of those tabletop fountains, twinkle lights all over the room, candles lit all around the bathroom, a waiting bubble bath, music, and he said, \"Honey, you slip into the bubble bath.\u00a0 I'm going to bring in some buffalo wings, and you just relax.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tHe gets a 10 \u2013 a 10!\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> I was just thinking that I'm resigning as the host of the broadcast of FamilyLife Today because I'm a dud.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> I want to know who thought this idea up for him, and obviously it was another woman.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> But I have to tell you what that did for me, as a woman.\u00a0 I'm weary, and I slip into that bubble bath, all of a sudden, I relax, I'm ready to be a wife and a mother again.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Mm-hm, and, you know, a lot of men are listening right now, and they're thinking, \"Where did he think of that?\u00a0 How did he do that?\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Actually, it was in this great book called \"Intimate Issues,\" that he read.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> He read your book?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> That's it!\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> So you'd given him a few tips along the way.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> So you didn't mind if he followed your instructions?\u00a0 It's not that a man has to be creative on his own, it's that he has to care.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Yes, and the fact that he took the time and the energy to do that.\u00a0 To see that's what I needed when I got home.\u00a0 Not, when I walked in the door, \"Here's 10 phone calls you need to return, here's the mail that's stacked up since you've been gone and, by the way, the kids had a fight.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Linda, I'm going to ask you a very personal question at that point \u2013 how does Jody affirm you in your femininity as a woman?\u00a0 Because there's a lot of young men out there and, as far as that goes, a lot of older married men, as well, who could learn, I think, from listening to a woman whose husband has called that out from her.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> My husband does things like Lorraine just talked about.\u00a0 He arranges opportunities for me to relax, for me to rest.\u00a0 For our anniversary this year, he bought, at great expense and after several hours of searching over the Internet, a massager for my back because of a car accident.\u00a0 And several times a week, he will just say \"Honey, you lay down.\u00a0 I'm putting this machine on,\" and he just sits and talks to me, and the whole process just makes me feel soft and warm.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> There is a second step, though, as you outline it again in the acrostic \u2013 you go from romancing your wife to offering to help and, Dennis, you've heard me tell this before, but we were in a Bible study together one time, Mary Ann and I were.\u00a0 We had been married probably 10 years, and they asked the question, \"What's the most romantic thing your husband has done for you lately?\"\u00a0 And I couldn't wait to see what Mary Ann was going to come up with.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWell, when it got to her turn, she said, \"The other night Bob was watching TV, and I was in doing the dishes, and without me saying anything, he got up and turned off the TV and came and started drying the dishes.\"\u00a0 And I looked at her and said, \"No, honey, they asked about romantic things.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> No, that qualifies as foreplay, Bob. That touched her heart.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Whoa!\u00a0 Hold it!\u00a0 We just had some folks slam on their breaks driving in rush hour traffic \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Going home to dry dishes right away.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> They hit their signal, and they're making a U-turn right in the road.\u00a0 You said what, Linda?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> I said drying dishes qualifies as foreplay.\u00a0 That touches the inner core of a woman's heart.\u00a0 That makes her feel loved.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> What I came to realize in that experience is I was saying to Mary Ann \u2013 I wasn't just drying dishes, I was saying, \"I know where you live, I know what life is like for you, and I'm here to be a companion in the midst of that.\"\u00a0 And so it did go beyond whether the dishes got dry or not.\u00a0 There I was, standing alongside saying, \"I understand a little bit about your life and your world, and I want to enter into it with you.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> And, you know, Bob, this goes back from the very creation of time.\u00a0 God created the male and female, and from the beginning, He created a woman to be relational.\u00a0 This companionship element is critical to her.\u00a0 She was taken from Adam's side, from the flesh, and created to be a helpmate.\u00a0 So, as a woman, everything I do I want that relationship, I want that companionability.\u00a0 So when you said you wash dishes, and you come alongside Mary Ann, that's being a companion, and she feels that oneness and is drawn to you.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> So, in addition, Dennis, to romancing our wives, we need to offer to help.\u00a0 That's what the \"O\" is.\u00a0 Men need to step up and say, \"How can I help?\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> That's right, and whether it's yard work, housework, the laundry, putting the kids to bed \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> I knew you were going to say that one.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Mm-hm.\u00a0 I can remember so clearly when we had three children, the oldest was three, and I was a walking zombie.\u00a0 Jody sent me to the doctor to find out what was wrong with me, because I was so tired.\u00a0 The doctor said I was fine.\u00a0 So Jody took me out for coffee, and he said, \"Okay, there is something going on here.\u00a0 I want you to tell me everything you feel responsible for.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd we made a list \u2013 75 things on the list that I felt responsible for.\u00a0 He looked at it, and he said, \"Well, no wonder you're tired.\"\u00a0 That night he committed to me \u2013 he said, \"Honey, I know you make a list of every day of what you want to get done but, from now on, I'm coming home, and you tell me whatever you didn't get done, and I do it for you.\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd he did that, whether it was clean the bathroom, mop the kitchen floor \u2013 whatever I didn't get done with those little, tiny children, he did for me.\u00a0 Do you know what that did to my heart?\u00a0 I felt like he'd gotten behind my eyes and saw my life.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tNow, does he still do that?\u00a0 No.\u00a0 He didn't do it when the children were a little bit older, and I wasn't so tired.\u00a0 But when I needed that help, he offered to help, and that just made me love him so much.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> You know, what you're describing is the 1 Peter 3:7 man.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Exactly.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> \"Husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way so that your prayers may not be hindered.\"\u00a0 And when you described him as getting behind your eyes, at that point Jody understood your needs.\u00a0 And, as we talk about romance, Bob, it's interesting \u2013 some men may have felt like we left the subject of romance, and we have now moved on to a \"Honey-Do List\" somewhere.\u00a0 But that's not the case.\u00a0 We are still all over the subject of romance, right?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> That's right.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Bob and Dennis, when Jody did that for me, it made me want to get behind his eyes and see what his needs were and how I could love this man who was loving me so much. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> That's one of the goals of the articles in the \"Simply Romantic Nights\" collection is to help a woman get behind her husband's eyes and see what he needs in bed and to help a husband get behind his wife's needs and see what she needs around her environment.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> That's really what's in the projects that are in there, as well.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> Yes.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> The ones that are from a man's perspective will help orient a man toward how he can appropriately get behind his wife's eyes and, for a wife, it sends her in the other direction.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> Right, and I don't know if we talked about it, but each one is self-contained, 24 very creative ideas.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Twelve for the men \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> And 12 for the women.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Lorraine:<\/strong> And we see these 24 ideas as steppingstones to intimacy for that year.\u00a0 We build, really, an altar of memories every year to our marriage, and marriage is a long journey.\u00a0 And so for this year of time, these 24 ideas are going to provide beautiful memories and build an altar toward intimacy.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> You know, we've only gotten to \"RO\" on the broadcast today.\u00a0 There's a whole \"MANTIC\" left.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t[laughter] \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThat we didn't get to.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Linda:<\/strong> \"MANTIC!\"\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> That's why we pay Bob the \u2026\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Well, I'm just saying we've still got a ways to go as we work our way through this week.\u00a0 I want to encourage our listeners, though, to go to our website, FamilyLifeToday.com, and get information about the \"Simply Romantic Nights\" collection that our team has put together.\u00a0 This is a creative tool that we've designed to help a husband and a wife express their love for one another in some very special, fun, romantic, creative ways over the next 12 months.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThere is a date card for guys to use each month, a date card for the ladies to use each month, and we spell out for you what your date can look like.\u00a0 And, of course, you want to improvise or do your own thing, that's fine, but this gives you a starting place so that you can have a fun night out together as a couple.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThe collection, again, is called \"Simply Romantic Nights.\"\u00a0 The information about it is on our website at FamilyLifeToday.com.\u00a0 There is also information there about the book that Linda and Lorraine have written for women called \"Intimate Issues.\"\u00a0 This is a very helpful book for women on the subject of romance and passion and the marriage relationship, and I know you have talked to thousands of women over the years who have benefited from the way you tackled the questions in this book \u2013 21 questions and answers \u2013 the questions women ask most often about the issues of romance and intimacy in marriage.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAgain, the book, \"Intimate Issues,\" and the \"Simply Romantic Nights\" collection are available in our FamilyLife Resource Center at FamilyLifeToday.com.\u00a0 There is also information available there about the FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conferences that are kicking off not this weekend but the following weekend.\u00a0 We're going to kick them off Valentine's weekend and, of course, they continue through the spring, but if you'd like to have a special Valentine's weekend together, we're going to be at the Hershey Lodge in Hershey, Pennsylvania; we're going to have a conference taking place in Washington, D.C. that weekend; one at the Gaylord Texan Resort in the Dallas\/Fort Worth area; one at a resort in Albuquerque, New Mexico; and I think there are three or four other conferences Valentine's weekend.\u00a0 Again, all the details are on our website at FamilyLifeToday.com.\u00a0 And if that weekend doesn't work, there are other conferences coming up throughout the spring.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tPlan to attend a fun, romantic weekend getaway for couples this spring.\u00a0 The FamilyLife Weekend to Remember Marriage Conference where you can learn to love like you mean it.\u00a0 All the details are on the Web at FamilyLifeToday.com or call 1-800-358-6329 for more information.\u00a0 That's 1-800-F-as-in-family, L-as-in-life, and then the word TODAY, and when you call, someone on the team can answer any questions you have about the conference or they can make arrangements to have the resources we've talked about today sent to you.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tYou know, one of the most helpful books that has been written over the last several years on the subject of marriage is a book by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs called \"Love and Respect.\"\u00a0 Many of our listeners are familiar with that book.\u00a0 They may have seen it in bookstores, and we had an opportunity a while back to sit down with Dr. Eggerichs and to talk with him about the importance of love and respect in a marriage relationship.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWe have that conversation recorded on a couple of audio CDs, and we thought that during the month of February that would be a great resource to make available to listeners who help support the ministry of FamilyLife Today with a donation of any amount.\u00a0 We are listener-supported, which means that your financial gifts to this ministry are what keep us on the air in this city and in cities all across the country, and we appreciate your generous financial support.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tIf you are making a donation to FamilyLife Today online, and you would like to receive the \"Love and Respect\" CDs with Dr. Emerson Eggerichs, all you have to do is type the word \"respect\" into the keycode box, and we'll make sure that the CDs get sent to you.\u00a0 Or you can call 1-800-FLTODAY, make your donation over the phone and, again, just ask for the \"Love and Respect\" CDs, and we'll make sure they get sent to you. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWe do appreciate your financial partnership with us here at FamilyLife Today, and it is great to hear from you.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWell, tomorrow we're going to continue our conversation with Linda Dillow and Lorraine Pintus as we talk about romance and passion and intimacy in marriage, and I hope you can join us back as we move from talking about \"RO\" to talking about what makes a \"MANTIC.\"\u00a0 [chuckles] That was pretty bad.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tI want to thank our engineer today, Keith Lynch, and our entire broadcast production team who are all in the studio just moaning at that bad pun that I made.\u00a0 On behalf of our host, Dennis Rainey, I'm Bob Lepine.\u00a0 We'll see you back next time for another edition of FamilyLife Today.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tFamilyLife Today is a production of FamilyLife of Little Rock, Arkansas \u2013 help for today; hope for tomorrow.
