How Our Selfish Demands Sabotage Our Marriage :: [Ep. 267]

We are exploring the happy wife, happy life concept in marriage on this week's episode! We are talking about how demanding our way in marriage creates a prison of pride that damages relationships and rejects God's design for mutual service.

We will touch on the following:

• Pride makes us label things as "mine" and expect others to maintain our standards
• Phrases like "happy wife, happy life" enable selfish demands rather than godly love
• God warns of consequences but often allows us to experience what we demand
• Humility is the antidote - shifting from "meet my needs" to "how can I serve?"
• Understanding your spouse's heart helps prevent the demand cycle
• Consistently affirming and serving creates an environment where demands become unnecessary

Come listen today and be encouraged in building a biblically healthy marriage!!
