The post Half-Marathon Finish Line: More Fabulous CMBA Posts appeared first on Hot, Holy & Humorous.

I am a member of the Christian Marriage Bloggers Association (CMBA). This group has been incredibly supportive and helpful as I have navigated the world of marriage blogging. A few days ago, CMBA launched its first blogging challenge with a half-marathon, encouraging marriage bloggers to post 13 days in a row.

I hemmed and hawed on whether I would participate, but looming deadlines and priorities in the other areas of my life caused me to pass this time around. But I do want to point my readers to some fabulous posts from CMBA members on the subject I write about — marriage and sexuality. There are lots of blogs covering marriage advice from other angles, but since marital intimacy is my specialty here at Hot, Holy & Humorous, I’m keeping my recommended reads list to that topic.
