Son is divorced and has a girlfriend

Prolonged period of abstinence

Break 1

Tactics of the devil

Diversion 

Break 2

Discouragement 

Doug continues his discussion on how the devil tries to destroy your marriage, and shares two very interesting emails: one about a married son going through a divorce who wants to bring his new girlfriend around for the holidays, and another from a wife who wants to help her husband navigate a prolonged period of abstinence due to a difficult pregnancy.

 

Listener questions and comments:
Rich - On first email: Invite his wife and children, but NOT him (17:57)
Mary - On first email: You can’t always get what you want. It’s a matter of praying about it but you need to protect the feelings of the children. (18:50)
Deedee - Are ‘homewreckers’ in league with the devil? (36:30)
Santiago - I'm 15 months sober after three years of trying to quit. My wife is pregnant, and I've been trying to go to church tremendously. Addiction is everywhere. (38:20)
