Yeah thanks for chiming in, Miss Lissy! I’m with you on that “one person” thing. Did you know in a huge study from Dartmouth University of 16 thousand people – the poll results showed that sex – not money or anything else, had the highest bearing on people’s levels of happiness? Not surprisingly, the happiest people had sex with one partner – and the more partners people had, statistically the less happy they described themselves.
I teach my kids that what makes things valuable and desirable (like a high-end country club) is how EX-clusive it is. Monogamy is powerful that way, not to mention spiritual, and just plain fun.

Right on, Miss Lissy! Sex is the most precious of gifts, and it’s truly sad to see how our culture has marginalized it into a simple, casual “act.” Trust me, I’m doing my best to help more people realize it!

Thank you so much for posting this! So few people realize just how precious a gift sex is and how God designed us to work and to be with that one person. I wish more people could realize this.

Yeah, I’m not sure what struck you as so unclassy, really. They were dear friends and my goal with them was never to “convert them,” as much as to show them a glimpse of the Divine mystery. As it turned out, the daughter came to my house one day to ask me to pray to my God about her estranged husband and they became re-united and seem quite happy today. She thought the miracle of it all pointed to the faithfulness of God.
Dustin is correct in that the description could have been of any kind of person who was missing out on the wonder of supernatural love.
Truthfully, I think the thing that impressed her about a “Christian husband” was the way she saw Mr. Parris be so helpful and engaged in everything we did. She used to comment about it all the time – especially when she could look in the windows and see him ironing or vacuuming! (Not that I expect you to see the winsomeness of it all.)
Most of us only build friendships with people exactly like ourselves. That would be a shame.
