[...] A New Man Over the last several months, Lisa and I have been serving a local couple who have deeply been hurting. A local church sent them to us, and we’ve been fighting for them like crazy. The husband’s affair was ripping the family apart, but through the love of Christ, the wife held on. She loved him even when she wasn’t herself loved by him. She extended the love of her Father to her husband in amazing form and is winning the battle. [...]

Wow. That makes so much sense to me. My marriage has been in a constant struggle from day one and reading this…it all makes so much sense now. My husband has issues with all that and then some…pornography, drugs, alcohol. I have begged and begged for him to take control and be leader of our household and he just won’t do it.
“Sounds like a lot of women I know. They’re empty, yet trying to fill needs they see around them without aim. Is it any wonder they have become obsessed with work? Other men? Shopping? Name it. They have no direction.” THIS IS ME! I fail God constantly because my faith gets so weak and I get so discouraged. Thank you for this! Now, if I only knew how to fix it…

Thanks for stopping by, Mark. I felt the Holy Spirit moving in me as I watched this. I knew immediately it was for our readers. I’m thankful to know it hit home, as God intended.

Don’t just come out and say what needs to be said or anything. Man, that hurt but in a good way. I saw that program that you are talking about and I was amazed. Yes, these are animals we are dealing with, but as men, we often act like animals instead of the wonderful people that God made us to be. Thank you for knocking the stupid out of me so that I can get my “pride” to not be about pride, but love and leadership.

Thank you for what you do on this site.
