Ballroom dancing is teaching a man how to lead and the woman how to follow

Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

Ecclesiatas 4:13

Linda and I started ball room dancing through the New Hope dance ministry. We first started ball room dancing several years ago when Bruce Gunderson started this ministry with his wife to help couples reconnect after difficult times entered their marriage.

'To teach a man to lead and the woman to follow' were the words of that first night devotional As we reflected on that phrase we understood the signifigance it had in ball room dancing which required the man to take the lead and for woman to trust in her guy's leading.

why is so this so important you might ask? Because we're living in an age where woman's liberation is telling young woman that they do not need a man to lead them.

The reality is that this is a lie that is creating epidemic lonliness.

When God created man and woman he created them to love and cherish each other and to procreate.

In that sense, ball room dancing is a perfect example of teaching men and woman a life long skill that will improve their relationships as difficult times enter such as the sudden loss of a child. Life is filled with heartache butlike two stands bound together your marriage will remain strong.

If you live in the Minneapolis area I encourage you to try ball room dancing. My opinion is that you will not regret it
