Emunah (Hebrew for faith, belief)

Part 2: Improving Your Marriage with the Greenes


Listen Later

Melvin and Voncille Greene, hosts of “Living a Godly Marriage” TV show, return to Emunah to discuss ways to improve your marriage. They say there are 10 top reasons marriages are failing. They tackle the first five reasons in Part 1. In Part 2, the Greenes look at the final five reasons.

10 reasons marriages fail:

1.     Following the world or culture’s marriage blueprints instead of God’s blueprint for marriage.

2.     Lack of commitment and resilience

3.     Selfishness

4.     Financial issues

5.     Sexual issues

 

6.     Communication issues

7.     Blended family issues

8.     Not keeping the marriage a priority

9.     In-law issues

10. Not growing spiritually as a couple

 

A key scripture for the couple is Psalms 127:1 “Unless the Lord builds the house, They labor in vain who build it; …”


The Glenn Dale, Maryland couple has been married 12 ½  years, and for four years, they have hosted “Living a Godly Marriage” TV show that airs three times a week in Prince George’s County, Maryland. On the TV show they teach Biblical principles about marriage and interview couples who have a powerful testimony of how God helped them overcome marital challenges.

 

In Maryland, the show can be found on Channels: Fios-42 and Xfinity-76 from 11 to 11:30 a.m. on Sundays, 11:30 a.m. to Noon on Wednesdays, and from 1:30 to 2 p.m. on Saturdays. Search on YouTube at Voncille Greene.
