Lightbulb Moments in Marriage Part 1: Our Core Beliefs

In this webinar, part 1 of a 3 part series, Emerson discusses the upcoming book "Lightbulb Moments in Marriage.” This first discussion covers how critiques from spouses can affect self-worth, the importance of understanding one's value as God-given rather than spouse-driven, and the transformative power of seeing Jesus in your marriage. Emerson emphasizes the need for a proper worldview, grounded in scripture, to navigate the challenges of marriage and life.

Author, Speaker, Pastor

Questions to Consider

What if the pain and tension in your marriage right now is actually preparing your heart for a transformative lightbulb moment from God?
Have you ever realized that your deepest feelings of worthlessness or invisibility in marriage might be rooted in letting your spouse define you instead of God?
When you picture Jesus standing beyond the shoulder of your spouse, how might that one shift change the way you love or respect them today?
If you knew you would one day hear “Well done, good and faithful servant” based on your faithfulness in marriage, what little “yes” would you say to God right now?

What I feel concerns me the most so far is reading the repeated (and oft repeated) assumption that "your spouse is a person of basic good will".

Few people who claim they believe in God would say He is a dictator. For instance, in marriage they would never argue that God is unfair and mean for His command in Ephesians 5:33 to husbands to love and wives to respect.They are an exception.Instead, they creatively claim God is love and He would never expect them to do something in marriage at this stage with an indifferent and insolent spouse.

This Christmas, Would a Husband Actually Be Disappointed in His Wife Who Loves to Give and Share the Gospel?

Men, does your wife love to give during the holiday season? Neighbors to bake for, teachers to show thanks to, co-workers to surprise . . . For most of us, the outlets we have for giving to others during Christmastime go well beyond family. And when you add up the cost of all those gift cards, pies, coffee mugs, and poinsettias, it can get really expensive, really fast! But maybe your wife isn’t thinking about the cost as much as you can’t help but do. Because she just says, “I LOVE to gift. I LOVE to give—money, flowers, food. Whatever the cost, I just LOVE to give to others!”
