The Family Captain

How to Handle In Laws, Parents, Boundaries & Biblical Unity for Christian Husbands


Listen Later

This episode is all about how a family leader should navigate in-law dynamics.

Whether you're being a nice guy and siding with your mom, or your wife is venting to her parents about things in your marriage, we cover a wide range of common in-law issues and how a godly, mature, masculine husband should deal with them in order to build a deeply satisfying marriage.

Remember, it's you and your wife vs. the world...EVEN if that means your parents and in laws are on "the world" side.

Nobody tells men that our lives will shift into autopilot without us noticing. They didn’t warn us that our marriage would drift into average instead of amazing. But Christians should have the best marriages and the best sex lives. The Family Captain will show you how.
