Ep. 11 It’s not them, it’s YOU

Ep. 11 It’s not them, it’s YOU

In this episode we talk about understanding the POWER in submission and how to win at marriage every single day.


Scriptures referenced:

In the same way, you wives must accept the authority of your husbands. Then, even if some refuse to obey the Good News, your godly lives will speak to them without any words. They will be won over”

1 Peter 3:1 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/1pe.3.1.NLT

“And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.”

Ephesians 5:21 NLT

“In the same way, you husbands must give honor to your wives. Treat your wife with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you are, but she is your equal partner in God’s gift of new life. Treat her as you should so your prayers will not be hindered.”

1 Peter 3:7 NLT

“For wives, this means submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of his body, the church. As the church submits to Christ, so you wives should submit to your husbands in everything. For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man who loves his wife actually shows love for himself. So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.”

Ephesians 5:22-25, 28, 33 NLT

“Husbands, love your wives and never treat them harshly.”

Colossians 3:19 NLT

Ep. 10 Ayesha Curry vs Everybody: Attention in Your Marriage

Ep. 10 Ayesha Curry vs Everybody: Attention in Your Marriage

If you haven’t watch the #RedTableTalk episode featuring Ayesha Curry you should check that out first. These are my very non-judgmental thoughts and response to everyone with a mouthful to say in response to this young woman’s need for validation. She never once says she wants it from others or anyone in particular. For all we know she simply needs it from herself. But what we won’t do here is judge her for being completely honest about her desire to feel wanted. That is human nature and no one is exempt from needing validation. That’s why we’re all on social media after all...
