Worth Repeating: How to Speak to Your Husband When all you Want to do is Yell at Him Ep. 738

Joining me today are Dave and Ann Wilson who have written a brand new book about what it looks like to speak life into our marriages; not just with the words we say, but also in the thoughts we choose to dwell on. We'll talk about why trying to be your spouse's Holy Spirit never works, why kindness is actually one of the most rebellious things we can do in today's world, and how reframing our inner dialogue can change the way we manage conflict.

Whether you've been shouting to be heard, or quietly holding back the pain of unspoken expectations, today's conversation will offer biblical wisdom, practical tools, and fresh hope for building a marriage that reflects Christ's love. We pray this episode encourages you!

Episode Highlights:

How you approach the conversation matters.

Hope and joy can only be in the Lord.

Your words have the power to build up or tear down your spouse.

Gratitude for your spouse can change your perspective of your spouse.
