Intentional Guy

Duane brings us an outside perspective of Blaine's interview "Love is an attitude" from our 28 day challenge.  If you have not watched this episode go check it out as Intentional Man spotlights this interview with Blaine Bressman on our YouTube channel https://youtu.be/w6ztVSpUJfA

I am asking if you would take part in something I am doing.  It is a 28-day challenge that will start on January 18th and end on February 14th, Valentine’s Day.  This will be done through the Podcast I do “Intentional Guy".  It is very simple but can also be very vulnerable for some.  I did an interview with Amber and in it you can see how one thing I changed in our relationship but feared the most to do.  This one thing brought us even closer.  https://youtu.be/t_nFqlKc6OQ Sometimes if we are not careful, we can just exist as a married couple but never thrive.  I often wonder why some people are married, because they don’t seem to have any joy.  I don’t want to be that couple and truth is Amber, and I was that couple up until about two years ago.  What if by Valentine Day February 14, 2023, your marriage could be transformed.  What if when Your wife looks at you, her eyes show you how much she adores you (like when you first started dating)?  Is that something you want?  I’m not saying you have a bad marriage but we all can be better husbands than we currently are.  I have prayed and felt led to ask you as one of these five men to join me.  Not because I think you have faults as a husband but because I think we have some of the same goals.  Our character is often forged from the people we spend the most time with.  In fact, if you think of your top five friends you hang out with, you are most likely somewhere in the middle of each of their characteristics and goals.  Most men (husbands mainly) can’t even think of five other men they spend time with on a regular basis.  All this challenge will consist of, is a willing spirit to hear God’s voice, watch the special episodes that will air starting Wednesday January 18th  at 12 PM CST ending on February 14th where hopefully you and your wife will have a wonderful Valentine’s Day, and the fruit of your labor will have been seen by her.  On February 15th we will air a special live broadcast bearing some great results from husbands who have firsthand seen God move in their marriage.  This would also be a good episode to share with Your wife so she can see that You desire a closer relationship with her.  During this time period it is my hope that God will reveal to you small things you can do that will have an impact on your marriage. Yes, I said small things.  It is usually the little things that matter the most.  You will see that in the first episode that will air on the 18th as I have a conversation with a close friend Blaine Bressman, sharing a bold moment when he confronted me about my marriage.  It was a humbling game changer.  I hope you will consider being a part of this with me, I look forward to your response.
