Jennifer Johnson
This episode makes me so angry. She needs more training especially hearing how she responds to her son. You trashed your husband for 19 years to him, he only knows what you have told him. You didn't at any point defend him, you basically said well he's a jerk but I'm staying married.
Jennifer Bachmann
In regard to his change as a result of his wife's change: Because the answer is spelled out in Scripture: “Wives, likewise, be submissive to your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the word, they, without a word, may be won by the conduct of their wives, when they observe your chaste conduct accompanied by fear” (1 Peter 3:1-2).
Selena Pearce
this resonated with me so much. I was brought up to believe that a woman's job was to keep the house clean and to always be busy. it's a hard thing to break, but you're right that the MOST important thing is intimacy. thank you
Selena Hatton
There podcasts are so inspirational. listening to them helps me learn so much about how to show up in my relationship. I always thought that communicating what I wanted meant moaning and reminding...how wrong was I??
