About Us

We are Jon and Lita VerHagen.  We met and began dating while attending the same Christian high school.  After graduating from high school, we attended the same Christian college.  It was in college that we KNEW we were going to marry each other.  This was more than just dating—it was preparation for marriage.  We began studying marriage together.  We read books about marriage.  We took every pre-marital counseling opportunity that came our way, and were surprised by how many opportunities there actually were.

After graduating from college, we married as virgins.  Even though we had dated for seven years prior to getting married and thought we knew everything about each other, we quickly realized that we had married strangers.  After all of our preparation, we didn’t know how to be married to each other, and we knew nothing about how to have an enjoyable, fulfilling sex life.   So we studied more and practiced.  We read books on marriage and books about having a great sex life.  We sought out the wise counsel of others.  And we practiced—lots and lots of practice.

We have now been married for over 25 years.  We have a deep love for Jesus and each other.  We love the Reformed tradition of the Christian faith and are members of the Christian Reformed Church in North America.  Our faith has everything to do with our marriage and our sex life. 

It is our sincere hope that this blog is useful in helping you move towards better intimacy in your Christian marriage.  This blog is meant for married couples.  Please read the blog together.  Complete the exercises together.  Discuss the talking points—together.  And ENJOY each other.
