Product Quotes
God is not pink. God is not blue. God is purple. When two become one, they have the potential of displaying God’s attributes and character.
Words of Love or Respect must uplift your spouse, edifying- never manipulating him or her.
Clarifying is what you do before you step on your mate’s air hose and deflate his or her spirit. For example, you are having a typical conversation, but you can tell there is a misunderstanding. One of you isn’t being clear or isn’t hearing correctly. Then and there you clarify the misunderstanding before your spouse’s spirit deflates. You lovingly or respectfully clarify matters so that your spouse will not feel unloved or disrespected. The reason you take pains to clarify a seemingly small matter is to prevent the situation from becoming a love and respect issue that needs decoding. Clarifying is what you do to stay off the Crazy Cycle and keep positive, energetic feelings flowing between the two of you, to keep yourselves on the Energizing Cycle.
No matter what your struggle- criticism, constant conflict, sex, money, parenting, harsh words- learning to communicate the Love and Respect way can help you make crucial changes and build the kind of relationship that God blesses.
When you look to God and His Word as your ultimate source of significance and security, you don’t demand that your spouse take that role in your life. And as you draw strength from the Lord individually, He draws you closer together as a couple.
Never give up. If you want to have a strong marriage, you need to accept temporary setbacks as part of the game.
God’s commands are not burdensome, but are given to us to spare us from more pain. Why would God command you to do something that doesn’t work?
A woman needs love like she needs air to breathe. A man needs respect like he needs air to breathe.
No one can really practice Love and Respect unless he or she does it as unto Jesus Christ.
There is a plan to parent God’s way, even when our children may seek to go their own way at time. The secret is to follow this plan regardless. When you do, I believe you succeed in His eyes.
You must “ask God from the wealth of his glory to give you power through his Spirit to be strong in your inner selves.”
A strong woman of dignity puts on respect out of her love and reverence for Jesus Christ. She trusts that His word not only protects and empowers her, but also rewards her with incomprehensible eternal blessings.
We might say that every negative action in the family has an equal and opposite negative reaction.
When we feel crippling discouragement by the sinful choices and outcomes of our kids, we must not let this permanently deter us from parenting God’s way.
Although the Crazy Cycle is not what God intends for any marriage, all couples get on it at times from one degree to another.
[Husbands] the most powerful weapons you have are your ears. Just listen to your wife, and she is much more likely to feel understood.
Unconditional respect, like unconditional love, is all about how one sounds (tone of voice and word choice) and appears (facial expressions and physical actions).
When you’re truly Christ-centered, instead of child-centered, you will be a more effective parent in the long run.
Thank the Lord for all the trouble-free moments in which you and your spouse enjoy Him, each other, your family, your ministry and life as a whole. Ask Him for the strength to accept your measure of trouble, and the wisdom to deal with the annoyances and irritations by loving and respecting each other with new commitment. (You may also want to pray about troubles at work, at church, with the children…) “But those who marry will have trouble in this life” (1 Corinthians 7:28)
Don’t pressure yourself with perfection. We are going to fail. A righteous man falls 7 times but gets back up.
Both Judas and Peter denied Jesus Christ, but there is a huge difference between a Judas and a Peter.
You may believe that the careless, unloving or disrespectful words you speak are because your spouse is causing you to speak this way, but Jesus says that it is coming out of your heart.
To not forgive is to shoot yourself in the foot and put extra gas in the Crazy Cycle.
If we subscribe to the belief that because we are equal we are the same, then we’re going to expect our spouse to respond the way we do.
We can all have moments of anger, but this does not mean we have to lose control and sin.
Getting married reveals, usually sooner than later, an incontestable fact: your spouse cannot possibly meet all your needs and desires
The Crazy Cycle is, indeed “the evil of folly and the foolishness of madness” (Ecclesiastes 7:25)
The difference between successful couples and unsuccessful couples is that successful ones keep getting up and dealing with the issues.
Share what God is saying to your heart, not what you think He needs to say to your mate.
When you come home after you have been apart, the first few moments of reconnecting will set the tone for the rest of the evening.
Words of love from a husband are like good medicine that brings life to the marriage.
We get on the Crazy Cycle because without love a wife reacts without respect, and without respect a husband reacts without love.
Christian maturity involves a lot of things, but surely it includes knowing how to process your anger.
Positive changes flood a relationship immediately when both husband and wife cancel the blame game!
A parent needs to feel respected, especially during conflicts...A child need to feel loved, especially during disputes.
We have discovered that as women motivate their man God’s way, men are energized to love them better. It doesn’t matter if your marriage is good or seems like there is no hope. We have seen God move in powerful ways even when things looked hopeless.
Trusting and obeying God’s Word because we love and reverence God never, ever makes us a hypocrite! When the alarm goes off in the morning, we get up, even when we don’t feel like it getting up. Because we do what we don’t feel like doing, does that make us hypocrites? No, it’s a sign we are responsible people. Showing respectful behavior when we don’t “feel respectful” is evidence of maturity.
Words of wisdom for all husbands and wives are these: We easily see what is done to us before we see what we are doing to our mate.
As a wife, if you can start to understand how important your husband’s work is to him, you will take a giant step toward communicating respect and honor, two things that he values even more than your love.
There is power and freedom that comes in understanding that no one can cause you to react in a certain way. It is your choice.
Words of Love and Respect must include thankfulness spoken to or about your spouse; don’t fixate on weaknesses and faults.
Your spouse has a need that you don’t have. Are you going to say there is something seriously wrong with them or will you say “Viva la Difference”?
One thing to remember in this culture is if we say something complimentary towards one gender, we aren’t saying something against the other.
Always remember that Pink and Blue have different wiring, different preferences. Assume your spouse has goodwill toward you, no matter what. Both of you can be right, while being different.
As a husband, if you can grasp that you don’t always have to solve your wife’s problems, you will take a giant step toward showing her empathy and understanding.
It’s crucial to communicate with the right tone of voice and the right expression on your face.
A most significant point of this book is this: If what we think is true, kind, necessary, and clear, we need to have the courage to hit send. This isn’t about refraining from speaking; this is about speaking.
We can communicate the truth in the best of manners, but the person may be so insecure he or she can only react and attack like a wounded bear.
Life is too short to fuss and fret over trivial irritations.
A wife has one driving need: to feel loved. When that need is met, she is happy. A husband has one driving need: to feel respected. When that need is met, he is happy. When either of these needs isn’t met, things get crazy with conflict.
Being a person who communicates what is true frequently demands tact, and at times it can feel like sidestepping land mines. It takes work to be both truthful and tactful.
Feeling unloved, a wife gets defensive and acts offensively without respect. Feeling disrespected, a husband gets defensive and acts offensively without love.
A major step toward a happy marriage is accepting differences and working them out with love and respect.
At the very bottom of things, in every case and in every conversation, you can do your marriage a huge favor by assuming she is seeking to feel loved or he is seeking to feel respected and give your spouse some grace!
I have concluded that those of us in the church who believe we have the Truth are not using the whole truth. A crucial part of God’s Word has been completely ignored, or perhaps simply gone unnoticed, when it has been there right under our noses the whole time! Many Christian spouses know Ephesians 5:33 and can at least paraphrase it. The Apostle Paul tells husbands to love their wives as much as they love themselves, and wives are to respect their husbands. But is anyone really listening? Perhaps the first step to better communication between husband and wife is to hear what God’s Word clearly says. --Emerson
God’s commands are there to help us, not to hinder us or hold us back as male and female.
Mutual submission is the only way to live fairly together with mutual authority.
Marriage is a tool and a test to deepen and demonstrate your love and your reverence for Jesus Christ.
I often stress that one of the greatest rewards any persevering spouse can have is being a good example and influence on the children in the family.
Your spouse deserves the truth from you. Do your best to tell it with love and respect.
When a wife asks, “Do you love me?” She is not trying to put her husband on the spot. She is simply looking for reassurance.
When the wife flatly says her husband will have to earn her respect before she gives him any, she leaves the husband in a lose-lose situation. Now he is responsible for both love and respect in the relationship. He must unconditionally love his wife and earn her respect.
We must bring our identity in Christ to our parenting—we must not derive our identity from our children.
Do not live by the standards of Hollywood; trust what God says in His Holy Word.
When evil comes at you, you’re the one who makes the choice of whether or not it is going to go into you.
He will feel appreciated when you recognize his problem-solving approach as his male brand of empathy.
Just because you’re offended doesn’t mean the other person is offensive.
Mutual understanding, not communication, is the key to a healthy marriage relationship.
To stay the course in speaking words of Love and Respect, keep your heart in Scripture, trusting in and talking about His promises to help you.
Women give a report to build rapport. Men bond through shoulder-to-shoulder activities without talking.
Your position in Christ is what counts, not your less-than-perfect performance.
When we speak before we think, we widen the chances the other person(s) will be notably hurt, frustrated, confused, angry, fearful, or offended by something we’ve communicated.
Since it is easy to focus on the negative, focus on your mate’s good qualities and express thanks with positive words of Love or Respect.
The Love and Respect message is not about a husband earning his wife’s respect by being more loving any more than it is about a wife earning her husband’s love by being more respectful. Always love or respect is given unconditionally according to God’s commands.
We blame people for the bad things we do, but take credit for the good things we do.
When you relinquish an offense, you need to send that offense somewhere. So follow Jesus’ example and release it to your heavenly Father.
When sorting out how to slow down the Crazy Cycle, it helps to remember that men are commanded to love because they don’t love naturally, and on the other side, women are commanded to respect because they don’t respect naturally.
[Husbands] as the church places her burdens on Christ, so a woman needs to place her burdens on her husband. When she shares with you, don’t assume she is asking you to solve the problem. Ask your wife, “Do you want a solution or a listening ear?”
Focus on the positive in the midst of the negative, and the Energizing Cycle will keep right on humming.
When a husband feels disrespected, he has a natural tendency to react in ways that feel unloving to his wife. (Perhaps the command to love was given to him precisely for this reason!) When a wife feels unloved, she has a natural tendency to react in ways that feel disrespectful to her husband. (Perhaps the command to respect was given to her precisely for this reason!)
In the ultimate sense, your marriage has nothing to do with your spouse. It has everything to do with your relationship to Jesus Christ.
Unconditional respect means we confront their wrongdoings respectfully. We do not become uncivil because they are. Who they fail to be does not determine who we will be.
Before hitting send, ask yourself, "Have I listened carefully and understand the exact issue on the table?"
Thank the Lord that in the very beginning He created them male and female – Blue and Pink. Ask Him for patience and ever-growing understanding of how men and women see and hear differently. “He created them male and female, and He blessed them.” (Genesis 5:2)
