Marriage

Apathy leads to more apathy, which is the killer of passion and feelings of love. Intentional words, actions, time spent, and boundaries fuel our love over the long haul. Sometimes, we find we've drifted from that place of love we once knew and see bitterness holding us back. That does not mean we are without hope; this is something most of us long-time married people have encountered over the years. We just have to come back to Jesus.

What happens when a screen starts replacing prayer, counsel, and real intimacy in marriage? Before AI becomes a trusted voice in your home, read this biblical warning about protecting your sacred covenant.

This is a difficult verse to live out in today's "eye for an eye" society. We live among those who believe if someone does something bad to you, it is only right you do something wrong back to them.

Your spouse may not be your enemy, but there are definitely times when you have arguments you may not love them the way you once did—or even like them. This passage tells us to go out of our way to love the people who hurt us the most, which includes our spouses.

Your marriage is not the enemy’s playground unless you let it be. Learn how to shift from “me vs. you” to “us vs. the Enemy” and begin guarding your covenant with prayer, truth, and unity.

Do you attend to everything else and give your family leftover crumbs of your time? Are you always tired while interacting with your family because you spent all your energy out there? It hurts your wife deeply if she senses that your family is not among your top priorities.

Did you know that most men thrive on admiration, and it means the world to them when it comes from their wives? Honest admiration for your husband will boost his confidence and motivate him to take on the world. Men are competitive and tend to derive their worth from what they do.
