I normally don’t quote the Spice Girls, but the chorus from this song speaks so beautifully to this blog and its mission that I had to share. “Come a little bit closer baby, get it on, get it on ‘Cause tonight is the night when two become one I need some love like I never…
Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, saying, “I have gotten a man with the help of the LORD.” – Genesis 4:1 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first-born among many brethren. – Romans 8:29…
David and Jonathan’s Friendship 1 Sam. 18 As soon as he had finished speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. 2 And Saul took him that day and would not let him return to his father’s house. 3 Then Jonathan…
Intimacy with God is available to you. It is as accessible to you as God’s promises. And God’s invitation to you to enjoy intimate fellowship with him is that thing that is putting your faith to the test more than anything else (James 1:2–4). The Heart of Intimacy Intimacy is what we call the experience…
Unleashing God’s Truth, One Verse at a Time Intimacy with Christ Isaiah 64:6; Hosea 6:6; Matthew 5:10-12; Matthew 6:6; John 15:14; Acts 10:36; 2 Corinthians 12:7-9; Philippians 3:4-10; Hebrews 1:1; James 4:4; 1 Peter 1:8 The apostle Paul perfectly expresses the most earnest desire of every true follower of Christ: “That I may know him” (Philippians 3:10). “Knowing Christ,” in the Pauline sense is not…

Taken from: True love suffers. Love entails vulnerability. The Latin word for wound is vulnus, from which we derive ‘vulnerable.’ Similarly, passion means to suffer. Suffering in Latin is patior, from which we get the English word ‘patience’ and ultimately ‘passion.’ It’s the vulnerability ANR creates that scares people away. The intimacy is too much for them…
Lyrics: Nearer, still nearer, close to Thy heart, Draw me, my Savior—so precious Thou art! Fold me, oh, fold me close to Thy breast; Shelter me safe in that “haven of rest”; Shelter me safe in that “haven of rest.” Nearer, still nearer, nothing I bring, Naught as an off’ring to Jesus, my King; Only…
[Verse 1: Stephen the Levite] I remember before my church started A season that I called the darkness Saved but still living in bondage Not know the problem was not just my pride and lust, But that life was so autonomous But at Epiphany I had an epiphany Realizing community was the way it was…
John 14 English Standard Version (ESV) I Am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life 14 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God;[a] believe also in me. 2 In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?[b]3 And…
48 “I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50 This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this…
I have a friend from Minnesota who has been influential in my walk. When new to the Christian faith, he once reminded me how being Christian doesn’t mean we must change our personalities. “If you’ve always liked a certain style of shirts”, he said, “you don’t have to change styles after conversion.” I’ve never seen…
Disclaimer: I like much of Elisha’s riddle, but their doctrine doesn’t completely align with mine, especially with regards to salvation. The article below though, is a gem. Are you familiar with “entangled particles” from the world of quantum physics? Far more mind-blowing than anything in science fiction is the reality of God’s creation, and how…
We made it to the last characteristic in our profile of the typical ANR lover. I’m referring to the lower case ‘spiritual’ in this context. I’m only using the human definition in the non-biblical sense of being soulful and deep, as not all women with ANR desires are indwelt by God the Spirit, and conversely,…
This is the penultimate trait in our series. Many ANR women are tender, soft-spoken, cuddly, sensitive, gentle, peaceful and unquestionably feminine. They definitely have a soft spot for their husbands. God created women to be softer, more delicate and innate nurturers. These women take pride in their femininity; they naturally and joyfully take hold of divinely established…
The recent Ashley Madison leak has revealed some telling data. 99.95% of the site’s users are male. How does this compare to other matchmaking sites? On those tailored towards mainstream sexual activity, about 75 to 80% of users are male. In comparison, only 68% of heterosexual accounts on ANRSpace belong to men, but I strongly believe the actual…
I don’t think there’s a consensus within the ANR community. Personally, I don’t waste time. I’m completely convinced that an ANR is a huge blessing, so I’m upfront about it. My general principle is first or second date depending on how well we appear to get along, and if she’s an online prospect then it’s always the…
Ultra cautiously. First, to maximize your chances of succeeding, only pursue/be pursued by the type of Christian that’s highly likely to say yes. For guys, it means aiming for the soft, nurturing girl. If you see no signs of feminine softness in her, you’re likely to be wasting your time and hers. Ladies, your best bet is…
One word changes everything Centuries ago, English translators perpetrated a fraud in the New Testament, and it’s been purposely hidden and covered up ever since … the Greek word for slave (doulos) had been mistranslated in almost every English version- going back to both the King James Version and the Geneva Bible that predated it…
Faith without works is dead A beloved Christian that God used in my salvation story often says something in the same vein as “being Christian doesn’t mean neglecting to apply practical wisdom that aligns with God’s Word.” In other words, we Christians must fight our tendency to over-spiritualize everything. In our attempt to be spiritual, we sometimes lose our grounding…
Considering how few Christian ANR resources are out there, I am extending a warm invitation to guest bloggers. Although there are hundreds of web-savvy Christians with an interest in ANRs, I honestly know fewer than five internet resources that are exclusively Christian, exclusively ANR, so it would be a privilege to have you contribute. Let’s put…
I have visited virtually every active ANR dating site on the web, and while they vary widely in raunchiness or even “pornness”, their content invariably serves as a reminder that Christians are aliens in this fallen world. I want to give ANRSpace some credit for their efforts towards family friendliness, especially their no-cleavage policy, however simply reading what some…
10 Questions on Dating with Matt Chandler | Desiring God.
Greetings, everyone. Welcome to a new member of a growing number of blogs dedicated to Adult Nursing Relationships and Adult Breastfeeding (ANR and ABF). I’m creating this blog for two reasons: to show that when done in the only permissible context, marriage, this loving act only strengthens a bond and points to an amazingly wise and compassionate God, and secondly, to meet a…
