It was simply by giving him that affection and showing him basically, I would like to be loved this way, but I'm going to choose to love you that way.

He responded to that and he did begin to be more attentive and more responsive. He brought me flowers for no reason and it wasn't like he had never brought me flowers before.

But there was this element of he felt more connected to me.

He's Felicia Masonheimer and she and her friend and co-author Lisa Jacobson join us today on Focus on the Family, your host is Focus President and author Jim Daly and I'm John Fuller.

John, flirtation can add spice to and spark to your marriage. And today, yep, we want to talk about that because God created this. He created that spark. That's one of the great things about marriage and especially keeping that in our marriages and the importance of it.

Finding those times to truly connect with your spouse can be difficult in this day and age of modernity when everything is going.

Fones are going and kids are crying and things need to be done and we just got to make time for each other. I'll tell you what, the number one thing in parenting is to show your kids a good marriage.

And I know our guests are well equipped to talk about that. It's true. Whenever I call Jean, she always answers the phone in such a nice way.

It's just fun. When I call her and she'll say, hello, I'm serious. It's just brightens my day. You know, she never answers it with what do you need?

Never. Isn't that awesome? That's a wonderful thing. It's a gift. But that's just one example of how that flirtation can happen. And you know, it's just fun.

And we're going to cover this today. I think you're going to want to stick with this. Yeah. And I think Dean and I we like to laugh together. And that's one of the things I try to do is we sit down on the sofa after day.

Just to connect laughter seems to join us together and there can be some flirtatious moments as we do that.

Okay, we'll end it right there. Yeah. Well, we're two guests. Two guests who are going to share a little bit from their lives and their marriages.

I mentioned Felicia Masonheimer. She's an author, Bible teacher and host of the Verity podcast. Lisa Jacobson is joining us again.

She's been here before. She's an author and host of Club 31 women, which is an online community of Christian women authors.

And together they have a book about their own experiences and insights is called the flirtation experiment,

putting magic, mystery and spark into your everyday marriage. Get a copy from us here at the ministry.
