What is the best advice you’ve ever gotten on marriage? (Men, be careful how you answer that. A joke may be on the tip of your tongue but it is most likely best to leave it there.)  

I wonder how many of us would say it was a book they have read. According to Cosmopolitan, the best book to read is The Five Love Languages. If you’ve never read that, you should. If you’re not married, you still should. It helps with all relationships in your life. Including understanding how God has wired you.  

I had a friend, who was an elder in my home church, sit me down just days before my wedding with some really good words of wisdom.  

Maybe you’ve received advice that you have found helpful from a podcast or retreat experience. There are a lot of places to get helpful insights, and quite frankly, if you are or plan to be married, you should continue to get all the help you can for as long as you can.  

Peter told the men in the early church, (1 Peter 3:7): “Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way…” That means that we spend the rest of our lives working to understand our wives. Seems like good advice for wives as well. It’s possible that men are not as easily understood as our culture would entertain us to think (please catch what I’m saying there).  

We want to be one of those places where you can find help for:

This week we have a panel of MCCers who will share what they have learned from God and how they have applied it and what happened (or not and what happened) in their home.
