Discover the raw, redemptive journey of a couple on the brink of divorce after years of conflict, separation, and even betrayal, who found breakthrough through a powerful shift to unconditional love and respect. This inspiring testimony shows how one spouse's humble awakening and obedience to God's design in Ephesians 5:33 turned a hopeless marriage into a restored, grace-filled testimony—perfect for any couple feeling stuck, distant, or ready to give up.

Emerson Eggerichs, Ph.D.
Author, Speaker, Pastor

Questions to Consider

  1. What hidden biases might I be holding that blind me to how my own actions contribute to our marriage pain?
  2. How would truly putting Christ first as the source of my identity change the way I love or respect my spouse?
  3. In what ways have I used frustration or criticism to try to motivate my partner, and what might happen if I replaced that with unconditional love or respect instead?
  4. Am I willing to take the first humble step of confession and apology, even if I fear rejection, trusting that God can use it to unlock healing?
