No two people will agree with each other all the time. Conflict doesn’t mean the marriage is in trouble, and disagreement doesn’t mean you married the wrong person.
You’ve likely heard me talk about “when the issue is no longer the issue.” What begins as a normal difference of opinion can quickly leave both spouses feeling unloved and completely disrespected.
Courtship and the first few months of marriage is a unique time in a couple’s relationship. We are usually focused on our partner’s strengths and rarely aware of the weaknesses or quirks that all of us have.
In Galatians 5:14, Paul wrote, “For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”
As a young boy, around the age of twelve, when I learned of Darwin’s theory of evolution, something in me said, “Something is wrong here.”
One of the questions I hear the most is some variation of, “Are you telling me I have to unconditionally respect my husband’s bad behavior and become a door mat? Everyone knows respect must be earned!”
Emerson shares a powerful biblical principle evidenced in the midst of the horror of the Aurora, Colorado movie theater shootings on July 20, 2012.
In Marriage, We Will Have Trouble! I even go so far as to say that God has designed conflict in marriage. Yes, God desires that we all live in harmony, but that doesn’t mean we will live in an environment free from all conflict (or trouble).
June is wedding month. According to a study done by Pew Research, The Wedding Report and the US Census Bureau, the average wedding now costs $27,000. Most of us enjoy attending a beautiful marriage celebration, but have you ever wondered if that young couple who look so happy walking down the aisle intend to invest as much in their marriage as they did in their beautiful wedding?
If you have a father, a husband who is a father, or even a brother you would like to honor on Father’s Day, I have a simple idea for you. Be friendly.
It has been said that one of the best ways to love a wife is to love her children. One mom shared with us that each night when her husband tucks their 2 girls in bed, he says to them: "I'll always love you no matter what. I'll always be proud of you no matter what. And you can talk to me about anything."
