Emerson Do You Struggle With Blaming Sarah and Justifying Yourself?

Looking at his own marriage, Emerson discusses the universal struggle of blaming a spouse and justifying oneself in marriage, revealing how our reactions are our own responsibility. With honesty and biblical wisdom, he challenges couples to break free from the cycle of defensiveness and embrace the freedom of owning their responses.

Questions to Consider

  1. How often do you catch yourself blaming your spouse for your reactions, and what would it look like to take full responsibility for your responses?
  2. What does it mean to you to be truly free in your spirit, as Emerson describes, even when your spouse's actions feel unfair?
  3. How can recognizing the battle between your flesh and spirit help you respond more like Christ in moments of conflict?
  4. What practical steps can you take to stop handing the "keys" to your emotions to your spouse and instead cultivate the fruits of the Spirit in your marriage?
