I like your videos. And I am a Christian woman. Been married almost 14 years and have stayed in my marriage despite his adultery, lies, pornography, going to strip clubs, even getting another woman pregnant. He stays here at home with us (we have 4 young children together) probably because he can't afford to pay her child support and then us to if he leaves us. I know what the Bible says about respecting our husbands (praising), but I have to tell you that is not easy. Most days I hate him.

@kiki1326 I am SO sorry. This is not God’s will for your marriage & he has set up a way to handle difficult matters such as these. Matt 18:5 says if a brother sins against you go & show him his fault. Verse 16 says if he will not listen take 1 or 2 others a long Verse 17 says if he still refuses to listen tell it to the church. These are not easy verses when it’s your husband. But God loves you. Rhese verses along with Ephesians 5 verses are there as a protection for wives.

@kiki1326 Please pray over these verses & communicate with your husband. You do not have to put up with this behavior & tough love may be what it takes to turn your marriage around. My heart hurts for you and the situation you are in. If you need further help consider purchasing “I Don’t Want a Divorce – a 90 Day Guide to saving your marriage” by Dr. David Clarke.

I really love your videos. Im 23 and have been married for 3 years, I like your videos because I dont have really good examples in my family on how a wife should behave. I come from an abusive home and I am really trying to be a good wife and not imitate the behaviour I viewed in My home.

Please dont stop making these videos. They have been a great blessing.

@MsBreeah Thanks for your words of encouragement! I am working on some more! So stay tuned! Much love, Courtney

@nettieheartful Great analogy - that's exactly what the adulterous woman is. I think we as wives easily over look tons of things our husband's do that are worthy of our admiration or appreciation. When we were dating it came so easily - years of marriage mixed with kids and stress kinda choke it out. We need to take the time to intentionally verbalize our appreciation. What man or woman does not like to hear it?

Amazing, Courtney! Thank God! Mark 1:14-15

I feel so, so sorry for you. I know you will say you are happy, and that is great. I don't want anyone to be unhappy. But this seems so forced, false. My husband and I have a loving relationship.I do not have to force myself to praise him, or put it in my planner. I didn't have to ask jesus how to treat my husband with love and respect. I feel sorry for those that run to the same book for answers to life's questions/problems.Why bother bestowing free will if there is a "blueprint"? sad and scary

@kiki1326 The bible is VERY clear. Staying married does not ever mean bowing to or enabling sin. We only bow to God. God hates divorce and there are alternatives to divorce and also ways to deal with an abusive husband. Your godly ways may win over your husband. You must continue to obey God's ways despite your husbands sin. Again this does not mean being a doormat and enabling sin. Only God can fix such a hard man. Bow to no one but God. Do not fear anyone but God. Trust Him.

@Courtneylivingwell Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. I appreciate you taking the time to respond. Actually, my husband filed for divorce and I never signed the papers, and he returned home after realizing he wanted to reconcile with me, but nothing ever changed on his part. I am at a point in my life/marriage where I don't care anymore about what I say to him... if it offends him, oh well. I do my best for my children. Thank you for sending a prayer up 4 me

Yes men do want that admiration which they so much need. I wonder why they seem to need it so much? Considering myself I also need that daily affirmation that you are loved and needed. I enjoyed your video and thanks so much for doing it.

@misslilly1989 The more you devote and submit (but don't be a doormat; men don't respect that) yourself to your man, the more it'll come back to you, if he's a good man. I hope things are going good with your marriage. Just remember to openly show your love and devotion--it'll come back to you in ways that may amaze you.

@framboise595 Yes, and by doing so the man loves and adores his woman even more and the relationship becomes much healthier than it otherwise would be. Everyone wins--especially the kids (if there are any), since they're living and growing up in a very healthy and loving household with very few--if any--fights of any significance.
