If you asked Christian married couples today what is the most difficult thing to talk about in marriage, many would say money, but that's only because they won't acknowledge the real issue which is almost taboo - sex Sex in marriage, although satisfying by God's design, is one of the most complex areas and can cause a tremendous roadblock that puts a strain on the marital relationship. In Why Can't I Talk to Him About Sex, author and Relationship and Intimacy Advocate Mary Whitman Ortiz challenges women to dive deep and face their innermost issues around sex and deal with them in a practical, real-life manner, thus improving the quality of sex in marriage. Throughout each chapter and exercise in this marriage and sex book, Ortiz seeks to help women to overcome feelings of isolation, rejection, and limiting beliefs which leads to more open communication in her marriage and healing with the man she loves. Through understanding God's design for sex in marriage, her sex life will no longer feel like a never-ending drain After working through this process, the woman will have learned how her feelings affect her outlook on sexuality and how God intends for sex to be a strength in their marriage After completing this book, the question will be, Why didn't I talk to him sooner? Are you a husband wanting to know how you can satisfy your wife in this area? Check out Mary's companion workbook available here on Amazon, Why Can't I Talk to Her about Sex.…

- Book 1 of 2: A Creature of Habit Story
On the island of Habit, there lived a very big creature who was about to go on the ride of his life!
While he’d recently learned to try new things, the very big creature had also learned that he wasn’t always very good at everything. It turned out trying was hard! The kind of hard that made him stomp his feet and roar his biggest roar . . . and sometimes even feel like quitting. And learning to ride a bike? That was really hard—every time he tried, he wobbled and fell right off.
But the very big creature wouldn’t give up. He might not ever be the best at riding a bike, but maybe—just maybe—he could be the best at trying to ride one. After all, trying was a lot like sticking with something—and he was already an expert at that!
Charming and vibrantly illustrated by award-winning artist Leo Espinosa, Jennifer E. Smith’s picture book about a character with big feelings tackles the ups and downs of learning something new with humor, reminding readers to take pride in each effort to try again — big or small.
