AUTHORS TEACH COUPLES HOW TO HAVE "HOLY SEX" "Celebrate Marriage" Conferences Scheduled Across the Country

Best-selling authors and conference hosts Jay and Laura Laffoon take marriage couples to a new level of intimacy in their "Celebrate Marriage" conferences.

    /Religion PR News/ - NASHVILLE, TN, March 24, 2008 — You know you are at a different kind of marriage retreat when the host yells, "Holy Sex, Batman!" Authors and conference hosts Jay and Laura Laffoon have been teaching couples how to have what they call "holy sex" for the past 12 years. Their Celebrate Marriage conferences have been held across the U.S. with over 20,000 couples participating since 1996. Their new book entitled "THE SPARK: Igniting the Passion, Mystery and Romance in Your Marriage"(Baker Books) is a culmination of their observations of what makes marriages thrive or fail in today's society.

THE SPARK in a marriage, as Jay and Laura describe it, comes from five facets of intimacy: Social Intimacy ("you need to have a strong friendship"), Mental Intimacy ("you are BOTH intelligent and can capitalize on each other's strengths"), Emotional Intimacy ("you have to keep emotional energy in your tank to give to your spouse"), Physical Intimacy ("sex isn't about the act of intercourse, it's the glue that holds marriages together"), as well as Spiritual Intimacy. The book highlights issues raised during their conferences from in-depth surveys of over 2000 couples who have attended their events.

THE SPARK was recently featured in Crossings Book Club which boasts approximately one million members. The Laffoons have appeared on several radio and tv shows and networks including Focus On The Family (heard on over 3000 radio stations), Life Today tv show (see in over 300 million homes), LeSea tv (45 million homes), and FamilyNet tv (30 million homes), among many others.

After meeting on a blind date over 23 years ago, Jay and Laura were engaged only ten days later. Before starting their conferences in 1995, Jay Laffoon served as an Executive Director in Youth for Christ for 15 years. Both he and Laura are certified instructors from Dynamic Communications International. Jay also serves as chaplain for the PGA Tour. Laura grew up in Atlanta, Georgia and attended Montreat Anderson College and Belhaven College in Jackson, MS, graduating with a degree in Social Ministries. She served as the National Director of Youth for Christ's Junior High division where she received the organization's highest honor--the Presidential Award for Excellence.

Combining humor, music, and lots of honesty, the Laffoons' Celebrate Marriage conferences are designed for married couples or for couples contemplating marriage. For more information on the conferences, contact 800-669-4122 or visit www.CelebrateNet.com.
