The Solve Family Problems Podcast

"I've been this way 65 years, and the problem is not mine, the problem is hers." That's what one husband told Dr. Davis in counseling, right before his marriage ended in divorce. In this episode, Dr. Davis and Mrs. Davis dig into what it really means to be "equally yoked" in marriage and dating, how parents can help adult children avoid relationships that pull them down, and why patience, preparation, and compatibility matter more than emotion when it comes to choosing a spouse. Includes real counseling stories — some triumphant, some heartbreaking — about remarriage, timing, and what happens when pride wins over humility.

In this episode, Dr. and Mrs. Davis answer two listener questions about raising confident, purpose-driven children: how to keep sons from becoming passive men, and how to help young adults find direction after high school or college. They trace the "stages of life" God designed for children, from toddlers making small choices to 12-year-olds carrying real responsibility (modeled on Jesus in the temple) to 20-year-olds crossing the biblical line into full accountability before God. The conversation weaves through control versus communication in parenting, the power of purposeful work, and how a spirit of wisdom, knowledge, and counsel from Isaiah 11:2 can guide a young person toward God's will.

In this premiere episode, Dr. and Mrs. Davis unpack what the Bible really says about narcissism; a term that never appears in Scripture but shows up in biblical concepts like pride, haughtiness, and being "froward." Rather than encouraging listeners to cut narcissistic people out of their lives, they walk through Romans 12:21 and show how believers are called to overcome evil with good. The conversation moves from general principles into specific, practical guidance for a wife navigating a narcissistic husband.
