OUR SHOW ON THE TLC CHANNEL WAS CALLED “VIRGIN COACHES”
TLC filmed us leading a romantic retreat in the Colorado Rocky Mountains with four young engaged couples who were waiting until marriage to consummate their physical relationship. True love may wait, but with all the pressure and questions; viewers wondered if their big wedding night would be a big fiasco?
On our T.V. special “Virgin Coaches,” got real about sex, dispelling the myths and revealing the facts of God’s intention of making love as we encouraged the young lovers how to ignite their sexuality that they had put on ice. We coached the virgins through wide-eyed innocence putting both their fears and their eventually their new spouse to bed on their wedding night!
HOW THE SHOW CAME ABOUT
In the summer of 2013, we received an unusual email from a television production company asking us if they could interview us for a potential TV show. Initially thinking it was a hoax, we shot back an email saying, “Thanks but no thanks.” Immediately, a producer with M2 pictures responded, assuring us this was an opportunity we did not want to pass up! With some trepidation, we responded and, after six interviews, a producer came to Colorado to film a “sizzle reel” (a mini synopsis of us doing a retreat with several couples). When we viewed it with family and close friends, the 12-minute short had everyone laughing hysterically and crying tears of joy. M2 Pictures pitched our show to TLC and, when the network heard about the “Christian sex therapists”, they wanted to see the full 12 minutes of the show instead of the usual five-minute preview. As you know now, TLC picked it up and, after entering the exciting world of television – hiring talent agents and entertainment attorneys and signing contracts – we watched one miracle after another as nine days of filming was condensed into a 42-minute pilot, airing on November 11th, 2014. We absolutely loved getting to know the virgin couples and getting them ready for their first time – a God-honoring wedding night when two would become one!
Even though we were trending 6th in the nation, and one of our statements, “Eyes open sex is God sex” became an internet meme our show was not picked up for a series (find out the reason why by reading our blog about the Duggars and “The Dark Side of Abstinence”). You can still watch it on iTunes, Amazon and other places.
