A woman's need is security
Spiritually taking care of her
Emotionally taking care of her
Practically taking care of her
Women want to be led
Open and honest communication
Is important to a woman
Sometimes the husband does not mature thru time but maybe the woman does and we feel like we have a child instead of a responsible mature husband. Eventually if they don’t want to step up, it causes frustration with the wife. Some men just need to grow up!
Fully agree
So enjoyed this episode. It’s the first one that I’ve listen to you and I have to say I was thankful to hear about being a part of my husband’s activities. I’m a crafter, he’s a gardener...so one is always outside and one is always inside. But now that spring is here I will make it a point to try to go out and help however I can; Plus shop for flowers and vegetables to plant. Thank you, for this Wonderful insight
This ministry is the best marriage help ever!
I still find it awesome and amazing that I'm married to my husband
learning so much! Thank you and bless you both!
FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON THAT WHOSOEVER SHALL BELIEVETH UNTO HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE
JOHN 3:16
Great episode!
Wonderful marriage teaching, I really enjoy listening to your sermons and podcasts with your beautiful wife. Thank you
I believe so too. Your partner should be your best friend too.
It does not always work out that way... .
Great advice on being best friends with your spouse.
So on point with this podcast. 👌🏽
Good stuff blessings thank you for sharing this will make a difference
Personally helpful content 👌. Very succinctly enlightening
thanks so much
Precious and lovely
Awesomeness
Thanks for talking through these topics! One thing that would be appreciated is if you could cite references (either in the bible or scientific articles) that we could use for further learning?
Another quick note - when you bump the table there's a real deep rumble coming through the recording which can be unpleasant. Maybe put something under the mics to dampen the vibrations?
he not going to open up you guys help my marriage so much I still use the tools you gave me
yes yes
The differences is the Ying with the Yang
How can you be best friends with your wife when her and her dad are best friends instead? I never knew their relationship was so close it is enmeshed. She’ll watch this and still say no my dad is my best friend and he will always be my number one man and I’ll never put another man before my parents. My pastor says if that’s the case then we aren’t really married and the counselor says the same thing yet her and her dad say I’m the one that’s out of line! I really don’t understand it. The more I open up the more ammunition there is against me
If she's Christian, she's commanded to leave and cleave to their spouse. The fact you feel the intimacy is in competition, shows where she has affections that are meant to be for their spouse after marriage. Be open about how you feel and give examples to bring closeness...
Forgive me. I love you
yes my husband doesn't like me talking him in a disrespectful way
Please pray for me and my wife
9 minutes in the teaching begins
Hey Jimmy ! This is a comment from a different teaching that you did, where You said children are all in heaven? Teenage wicked children are not in heaven they're in hell if they didn't accept Jesus. That's why bar mitzvah's are hilled at 13 years old, that's not just to celebrate them coming into puberty, interpuberty, it's also a warning of responsibility that they need to decide and choose a spiritual covering And father.. I thought it was important to say this because you wanted to teach us that I just saw you do? You said That children are all in heaven , but 19 majors that were not saved they certainly are not.
I just can't... see my husband Pastoring me.. he thinks paying the bills is enough... our relationship is in the back burner...bills always come first.. they come b4 dates and even b4 food...
yes I don't mind being father by her husband
This is a good commentary, but I, as an African-American lady, want to be respected first, which in my opinion is the same as honoring security. In my opinion, I do not believe that many women want to "mother" an old man, or should I state, an adult man. Many women do not believing in babying or Molly coddling. As I render respect, I expect respect, and need honor, the same as a gent. No difference. Lovemaking/sex is just as important to me as to any gent. Strive not to set women in a box and leave them there. I want a husband to be my best friend as well. Ask around again about the needs of ladies.

.I will put another word on it
Opu
Why are woman called to be a mans helper when their ego doesn’t want help
I like Jimmy, however he often interrupts his wife.
You two are a beautiful couple and you are h losing so many people with your biblical words
REPENT FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND TURN FROM SIN AND TURN TOWARDS RIGHTEOUSNESS THROUGH CHRIST JESUS
JESUS CHRIST IS COMING BACK SOON AND WE MUST BE READY FOR WHEN HE COMES BACK
You can't be friends with a drunk and cheater.
I agree with you 100%. However sometimes it is us women you drive our partners to commit in such behaviour 🙏🏾🙏🏾
If someone is a drunk and a cheat, you need to step back, I don't say divorce but a seperation from him and pray for him. But how awful if you are in this situation.. 🙏🏽😓
