Come catch a preview of the 2025 Men Make Men Sexual Recovery Retreat with Tom and the speakers that will be there!

Join Tom & Michele as they talk with Joanna & Matthew Raabsmith about the difficult topic about Sex and the difficulty or reintegrating sexual intimacy back into the relationship after the realization of betrayal, whether its porn, infidelity or a secret life now coming out of the darkness. When is it too soon to start having sex again? Will the betrayer feel like everything is ok if we do? Will I be feeding his addiction? Why do I feel so alone? These are just a few of the questions we hear when talking about this with couples and we will dive into these and more with the Raabsmith's in this episode!

We heard you loud & clear! The "dynamic duo" of Dr. Jake Porter & Dr. Barb Steffens were an awesome team at the Conference. The Q&A session was so impactful & they both graciously gave some more of their time to come back and do this Livestream to answer more of your questions! Some from the Conference that we did not get to, and some new ones as well! Great information! Enjoy!

Two different realities that can share similar yet extremely different feelings. Similar but different, hope and healing - surviving and thriving towards restoration.

The realization of what happens upon the discovery of his secret life and the partner betrayal trauma and the reality of it

As we roll into the new year, coming off the "bye" week and re-evaluating our own recoveries, lets not forget or minimizing the impacts of sexual addiction on the spouse. The Partner is living thru their own "personal quake" and the tremors are felt over and over. Get healing from this devastating trauma, learn empathy for her, show up in those times she needs you to, whether its a week, a month, a year or 15 years later. Be there it is trauma, it is devastating. But it does NOT have to define you or your relationship any longer!

Join Tom as he discusses the "bye" week and how to look at ways to "self scout" our own recovery. Maybe taking a walk thru your step 6 again, evaluating your defects of character, maybe some new ones that cropped up, maybe identifying the one that has been hindering your progress the most. Not looking at how to defend but take the offense and take this opportunity to look at ways to do things differently and to improve yourself, your marriage, your relationships and your intimacy with God.

Email or text Michele or Tom for any questions you would like answered on future episodes. Also go to tableministry.com for more information on the Bridge to Intimacy Conference in March 2025.

Welcome to the Table. Have a seat sit back and lets talk about freedom from sexual sin and partner betrayal trauma. Its impact on the church, what our model at FBC may look like and future discussions and guests. We will have open Q&A live feeds starting in January and love to have folks chime in with questions, comments and even success stories about their journey!
