The church set up a Web site concerning the challenge, Local 6 reported.

I wonder what the website covers? Instructional videos? A place for participating members to report their daily activity? A forum where members in the challenge can discuss the challenge and motivate each other?

Oh, and the flip side of the challenge? No rolling in the sheets for the unwed.

Sounds like discrimination to me. ohmy.gif

Church member Tim Jones and his fiancee agreed to take on the challenge, though he acknowledges it'll be a tough month.

Indeed, the sacrifices some people make for their religion!

That is some very unhealthy advice right there. I think this minister was just lusting for attention.

I think having the church give me advice on my sex life would be about as appealing as having it come from my grandmother...

My shul has a 30-day tefillin challenge, is that similar?

Well, they are calling it relationship advice.

It wasn't clear to me into which category the engaged couple was placing itself.

I think I'd rather get sex advice from my grandmother than most other people in my life.

They probably got the idea from that Robin williams movie.

That's like saying that one would rather get run over by a bus than by a locomotive.

Somehow I doubt my grandmother has the same sexual predilections as I do (and if she does, I do NOT want to know). Are you comfortable with discussing your sex life with her as well, or just receiving pointers?

There is some method to the madness. A sexual relationship between people who are not married can obfuscate the important things. On the other hand, lack of intimacy may be a serious problem in many marital relationships. Most of us likely think this odd because halachah already addresses both of these issues.

Because she's old and wise. She loves me. She doesn't judge me. And most importantly, she has no problem talking about anything.

A person doesn't need to have the same predilections as you to give you advice.

I would consider my sex life as private and personal to my spouse and myself.
