      Marriage Landmines

      •  Not having God 1st / being unequally yoked

      • Having an ownership mentality towards children rather than stewardship of God’s kids (my kids vs God's kids)
      • No concept or understanding of spiritual warfare
      • Lack of vision (goals) as a couple

      • Are you NAKED in your MARRIAGE?

        I wanted us to talk about today the 4th law of marriage, the law of purity and discuss ways in which we struggle with this law and practical ways I have taken steps forward to grow in this law…..

        Adam and Eve were naked and felt no shame….This is a vulnerability not just physically but emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically…… 

        So many times I hear from guys who are struggling with their wives not wanting sex as often as they want it and desire it…..There’s typically a lot going on in this moment but one of common denominators is that men generally speaking don’t pursue vulnerability emotionally, spiritually and mentally they just think about the physical nakedness…..

        • What is the Secret Sauce in Marriage?

          Humility isn’t thinking less about yourself, it's thinking about yourself less — C.S. Lewis

          Humility is really, REALLY important to our God! Of all the qualities God desires for us to own, humility tops the list. It’s because humility is the currency of Heaven. God’s Kingdom actually runs on humility because HE is humble. Jesus said in Matthew 11:29 “Come to Me…for I am gentle and lowly (humble) in heart…”

          Of course, the enemy hates humility and, in its place, promotes the counterfeit characteristic called pride. Pride is, of course, what got the devil kicked out of Heaven to begin with and he has never stopped promoting it in whatever way possible. Pride is the opposite of humility. It promises all of the things that humility alone produces; namely peace, purpose and fulfillment. Pride is so embedded in our human nature that we often operate in it unknowingly.  We need help! We need the Holy Spirit to open our eyes to the true definition of humility that Jesus modeled for us.

        • What do I do when my marriage goes south???

          Law of Pursuing- ways that we daily pursue our spouses- 

          • This law normally goes south because of human nature we work at our relationship until we feel secure in it and then we get lazy.
          • A second problem is that we have misconceptions about love and romance.  One common misconception is, if I marry the right person, the emotions will happen effortlessly for the rest of my life.  Another misconception is when my emotions towards my spouse change we begin to think that we might have married the wrong person.
          • The truth is that we have to work at our marriage everyday.  Fight for it to Flourish! Good marriages don’t just happen automatically-they are the by product of long-term consistent effort….
