How to Keep Romance Alive in Marriage | 7 Senses of Marriage | Ed & Lisa Young
Follow this Recipe for Great Marriage Romance:
1. Check the temperature. The temperature of your marriage should be 52.2. This is not the temperature, there are 52.2 weeks in the year. Date your spouse once a week. Twice a year, we spend the night away from our kids.
2. My definition of intimacy is keeping intimacy at distance successfully. We love our kids, but we also need room for romance and intimacy.
3. Clean out the pantry. You have to get the issues in your marriage out on the table.
4. Enjoy the meal. Enjoy marriage, find something you enjoy doing together. It creates that environment for romance. You used to love each other. Go back to those activities that you used to do together.
When you follow this recipe, it will create a relationship that not only honors God but will create a marriage that lasts. This type of marriage is only possible by the power of the Holy Spirit. You can’t do or have the things God wants you to have without the Holy Spirit.
Today, many marriages face a constant barrage of temptation and "easy outs" - but God offers us a better way to keep romance and intimacy alive and Satan at bay. Through this dynamic message, you'll find that there's help and hope for troubled marriages as well as a challenge to make great marriages greater.
In this sermon on marriage, enjoy the aroma of romance with Ed and Lisa Young as they get things cooking by sharing the ultimate recipe for a healthy, vibrant marriage.
We like to think about it. We like to sing about it. We like to watch it. We like to read about it. But what is romance and how does it play out in marriage? How do we keep the romance alive? Sometimes, we can compartmentalize romance, but romance is not an event, it's an environment we can create in our home and in our marriage. This aroma of romance or “aromance” permeates every area of your life.
In 2 Corinthians 2:15, it says, "For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing."
We're talking about a subject that is near and dear to everyone here. We like to think about it. We like to sing about it. We like to watch it. We like to read about it and we're talking about really an aroma, the fragrance, the aroma of romance. That's what we're going to talk about today. Romance. What is romance and how it kind of plays out in marriage and also in this whole dating thing and how to keep the romance alive, at least right up front. Is romance an event?
I know some couples here are really dealing with some difficult issues, about 50% of married couples say that they struggle in the areas of intimacy, sex, and romance. Others have totally disengaged and they're not having any sort of intimacy whatsoever.
God's desire is for husbands and wives to be fulfilled by one another. It is critical that we understand one another’s needs. However, it’s possible to wreck the aroma of romance. The following personalities are romance recipe wreckers. These are cooks that don’t need to be in the kitchen.
We recommend you do these things right now:
Talk to your spouse and tell him/her that you love them and want to get on the right track. If you’re a Christian, perhaps you could even pray together. You will be amazed at what God will do if you invite Him into your marriage. You both need to make a commitment that you want a healthier marriage.
Seek help. Find a counselor. We have resources to help you. Click here.
Join a small group. This should be a high priority so you can surround yourself with other couples who will help you.
Attend church. Going to church every weekend will be massive for your spiritual growth and your marriage. God doesn’t want something from your marriage. He wants something for your marriage and being in church is part of the anchor.
Get to work. Don’t just talk about wanting to heal your marriage. Instead, actually do the hard work, together.

I'm never getting married again. I'm happy not being married. I wasted my years being married to the wrong person I'm happy and content with being divorced and single.
