Your Spouse Isn’t Here to Make You Happy + When Mom Comes Before Your Wife + Why Kids Shouldn’t Come First

Todd sits down with Brad Bigney to tackle some of the marriage advice that sounds completely backward to our culture—and maybe even to you. What if the things you’re holding onto are the very things keeping your marriage from thriving? Segment 1 • What if your expectations of your spouse are actually hurting your marriage? • The surprisingly ordinary things that can make—or break—a marriage. • Some popular Christian marriage advice may be reinforcing the problem. Segment 2 • What are you afraid will happen if you really give yourself to your spouse? • Brad reveals the seemingly good thing that nearly wrecked his own marriage. • There’s a line struggling couples have to cross. Have you crossed it? Segment 3 • You moved out years ago—but have you actually left Mom and Dad? • When does honoring your parents start interfering with your marriage? • Your kids can become too important. Here’s how to know if they have. Segment 4 • Why do some couples divorce after 30 years together? • Staying married and building a marriage aren’t necessarily the same thing. • What do you do when you keep giving—and your spouse doesn’t give back? ___ Thanks for listening!
