How to Stay Crazy in Love with Your Spouse (Part 1) - Dr. Greg & Erin Smalley

- Dr. Greg and Erin Smalley have identified 12 “love secrets” to help couples experience a strong and healthy lifelong marriage. First, the importance of commitment - which the Smalleys struggled with from the beginning of their marriage. They had a horrible fight on the last day of their honeymoon which required some emotional repairs to renew their commitment to each other. Greg admitted he really struggled with spiritual leadership (another love secret) as a husband. He felt so intimidated by the spiritual example of his father, Gary Smalley. But Gary reminded Greg of all the great ways he was loving his wife and daughter, and how he served his family.
The Smalleys discuss the importance of couples prioritizing time together, connecting on a deeper emotional level. They stress the importance of physical intimacy in marriage; urging men to care for their wives and encouraging women to “prepare” themselves for intimacy. The Smalleys conclude on the topic of conflict management rather than conflict resolution; as long as couples work on keeping their hearts open to the Lord and each other, they can find ways to navigate and overcome the inevitable conflicts of life.

Rubbing someone else's shoulder 🤣
May your love continue to grow stronger and stronger in Christ
I adore Greg & Erin! They are so honest and light-hearted. I love that.
I cannot wait to hear the rest of this conversation!
Another book? 12 secrets? We need to be directed to the Word.
Diss his dad.... In jest yet the Word speaks about that. Ephesians 4:29, 5:4, Colossians 3:8
"Set me as a seal upon your heart, As a seal upon your arm; For love is as strong as death, Jealousy as cruel as the grave; Its flames are flames of fire, A most vehement flame."
Solomon 8:6
Love it when the Word is proclaimed!

Oh, the blood of Jesus!
Oh, the blood of Jesus!
Oh, the blood of Jesus!
It washes white as snow.
What can wash away my sins?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
JESUS CHRIST LOVER OF OUR SOUL
CHRIST ALONE CAN SAVE
Couldn't finish watching because was about to be sick. In every conflict example given, everyone laughs at Greg and nods at him like it's his fault. Why did you not call Erin out on her manipulation (calling Greg to apologize but really wanting an apology from him so she could feel better for her counseling appointment). How was she not being selfish getting upset at his innocent suggestion when he was volunteering to help HER with HER chair? Why does she expect him to put the chair away for her for weeks and get resentful when not even asking him to? Why is everyone laughing at Greg (even playfully) when Erin is the one with the problem here? What am I missing?
Exactly my thoughts. The chair sat in the hall for 2wks. Why didn't she say something.
Men are not mind readers but problem solvers.
The biggest problem I saw in their examples was her failure to communicate.
Yes he blew up and said something mean.
But She stonewalled him with unchristian silence.
What happened to the scriptures that says never let the sun set on a dispute?
I say this as a happy married man (Christian couple) of 16yrs.

NOT THE BLOOD OF BULLS AND RAMS
