The Bible's advice for your Marriage

Relationship problems? There's good news. God has given us instructions on how to have the best marriage. Dr. Emerson Eggerichs is an internationally known public speaker on the topic of marriage, parenting, communication and more. Dr. Eggerichs has authored several books, including Love and Respect, which is a New York Times bestseller, Platinum and Book of the Year Award winner, and has sold over 1.6 million copies.

Based on over three decades of counseling as well as scientific and biblical research, Dr. Eggerichs developed the Love and Respect Marriage Conference which he presents to live audiences around the United States.

Men and women will learn how to resolve conflict, dealing with the negative reactions (the crazy cycle). They will also learn how to motivate each other by meeting each other's need (the energizing cycle). Even those who feel hopeless in their relationships will gain understanding on how to handle an indifferent or unresponsive partner (the rewarded cycle).

God is like oxygen you can't see him but you can't live without him

[terrygodgirl]

This is important and relevant. I am saving this in my playlist for constant review.

[cynthiajohn]

Shalom! Thank you for this session. I enjoyed it thoroughly. Every couple must come before God before marriage and walk with HIM. Only God can set us united or free from any problems. God bless.

I remind her I love her everyday even when she's in a bad mood.

[ChristopherHarle]

I wish I'd understood this long ago. But hey, it's not too late. This is wisdom that our society, our church, our marriages need. Thank you.

[corycaschman]

I love this concept. Probably the best advice/program we ever went through to strengthen our marriage.

When a man seeks to understand a women’s “love language”, respect follows.

[jayg.a]

I'm an empathetic person, and I am usually drawn to people when I can feel their emotions. I will end up feeling a very strong bond or love towards them. Unfortunately, sometimes these are the most broken people, who will never look inwards towards themselves and get healthy. An empath ends up being a caretaker and doesn't get the compassion reciprocated. Women usually communicate what they are feeling, hoping that things will get better if the person understands their feelings. It's impossible, with a person who is emotionally closed off.
I believe that if a husband is truly loving his wife, she will be at peace. Inner peace, after all, the two will become one flesh. If there is a relational problem, it's a spiritual problem and no amount of talk will help that. It's like oil and vinegar, shake it up like intamacy and it seems fine, but when you go away there is definitely something wrong there. It is very important to love the character of your spouse, otherwise you may be very miserable.

To be honest, both husband n wife needs the respect. Not only the husband. I've seen how my parents been. And I can truly says the only way that avoids my mom from being crazy or thinking of divorce from my dad's verbal abuse, Is only by leaning more on God. She decided to be selfless because she believes in God's grace and mercy. She finds peace and calm after the verbal abuse by realizing that she shouldn't place her focus on whatever my dad threw at her. This video didn't tell me how to tell men how to show love to his wife and leaving out the important point that both must respect each other. Actually, I realized most men thought their way of showing love is by being a provider, giving any materialistic things which they thought is "love" to his wife. I believe my dad thought that's love. He's the best provider I could have. But I was tormented by verbal abuse in my early childhood as well. It even made me think "this is how women should be treated, u're provided well so you should respect him." Found the same type of man as my boyfriend which made me confused of suddenly feeling depressed. Only to have my eyes opened when another guy showed me true love and respect. I felt loved when I was respected. I felt loved when he took alot of time and effort to explained to me how women should be treated. I felt loved when he never belittled any my wrongdoings but advices me carefully. Also, taught me both man n woman must respect their own boundaries. And be authentic in our interaction. There's alot I can say in this. But, in short, even a woman NEEDS HER RESPECT from her man. Not 1 way. Even Jesus respected our decision when we refuses to follow Him and waited and still loves and cares for us during his waiting for our surrender to Him. Sorry for ranting but I felt really sad when there's no saying that a wife should be respected by her husband as well.

On time God always. Thank you Lord. After 31 years of marriage and lots of ups, downs, and a near death experience, im getting it.

[minajan]

I hope to find a God fearing husband 🙏🏼❤. No rush

[whatdidujustsay]

Yes. I do want to be your knight in shining armor!

[thecandiedribcompany]

Thank you so much for this video. You have no idea how much it has helped to open an understanding of each other in our marriage. May God bless you both.

[thechristianwalk]

This was super interesting. God's design may be imperfect in our eyes but perfect in fulfilling His purposes.

[ladennayoung]

Thank you Lord Jesus for this message reaching me. It's something about his demeanor/presence, that made me smile, and be a tremendous blessing to me while he was explaining this topic. And what he said at the end was really helpful/a blessing to me, and meat and potatoes to the entire lesson that was being taught during this.

We spin out of control when we allow feelings to take control,

[k.g]

So good. Thank you for sharing this it’s exactly what I’ve been trying to explain to my partner but it never comes across right

[cassandraralph]

People are human beings, and inherently selfish, one needs to really humble themselves before God, and ask Him to break that sin and selfishness. It usually is a painful process, but however it is very much worth it in the end!

[dannymeyer]

Respect goes both ways and yes respect is earned.
