We read in Genesis 2:24 that God’s plan is for a man to leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife. Unfortunately, some husbands never cut the umbilical cord.
Have you ever been asked to make a Christmas list and come up completely empty? Much more serious is voicing to your spouse the ways you believe he or she could show you more love or respect.
Does your spouse ever do or say something that really gets under your skin? I wonder, though, do some of us become resentful and unforgiving toward a spouse who never intended to hurt or offend us?
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.
RESPECT = C.H.A.I.R.S. Wives, in the Love and Respect book, I explain Biblically what God’s Word reveals about respecting the husband’s deepest desires as a male. These are the salient concepts from my findings. Do these make sense to you? What doesn’t make sense to you? I would love to hear from you.
Husbands, in the Love and Respect book, I explain Biblically what God’s Word reveals about loving a wife. These are the salient concepts from my findings. Do these make sense to you? What doesn’t make sense to you? I would love to hear from you.
Wives, even though 1 Peter 3:1, 2 recommends unconditional respect as a way to win a disobedient husband, you may have fears giving your husband unconditional respect. If so what might be one of those fears? Please share it with us.
Emerson paraphrases a well-known explanation of why and how we send messages in code and don’t communicate: “What I say is not what you hear, and what you think you heard is not what I meant at all.” Emerson and Sarah almost get into a serious argument about who was listening to what on the radio. How did Emerson finally break the codes they were sending and stop the problem from escalating?
