Episode Summary: Marriage is a commitment borne on the wings of love that embraces the whole person, warts and all…for better, for worse; for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health. But at a time when commitment levels are low and failure rates are high, we need to be pro-active in protecting our marriages, and looking at them from a biblically-based, hope-filled perspective. Dr. Gary Lovejoy and I talk about the keys to long-term marital success and happiness. Quotables from the episode: Every relationship has its unique issues, but there are identifiable patterns that predict the most likely outcomes in the struggle to make a good life together. You say that aggressiveness and passivity are both a cover for fear. What do you mean? Well, because when we're fearful we have different possible reactions. Sometimes when we're fearful we lash out because we think that aggression will protect us. And this is particularly true for men, And it's also true for women too, but they'll lash out in various ways of being angry. Sometimes sadly enough, it can even lead to physical, espousal abuse. And all they may, in their fear, may withdraw. They just say, "I'm afraid to talk, I'm afraid to share, I'm afraid to open." Sometimes they come from families where they were very close families. No one talked about anything. All issues and conflicts were simply buried. And that's, so that becomes their M.O. Humility is often misunderstood. I look at humility in terms of the ability to understand who we are and who God is and the difference between the two, and that there is an inexplicable relationship between humility and self -esteem. People who have low self -esteem, we think, oh, they're humble. You know, they're always putting themselves down. That's not humility. Actually, humility requires self-esteem. The two are so closely interact-related. What Paul was saying is that the husband must be humble enough to serve his wife and to love her and the wife is doing turns serve her husband and By serving loving, loving and serving are two sides and same point if you love them. You'll want to serve them if you sir and as you serve them you love them more and so there's a reciprocity there that's definition of humility and it's essential for a good strong marriage, because if you don't serve one another, you don't respect each other. And if you don't respect each other, you don't have the kind of intimacy that can otherwise be possible. You talk about the family as being, I love this term, incubator of bad habits. What do you mean by that? Well, what we learn in how to resolve conflict is we watch how it's done in home. The only models we have are the ones that we're at home. We don't live with anybody else. We just live with our parents and our family. And if what goes on at home is mom and dad don't talk to each other, or they have arguments and never resolve them, or they yell at each other constantly, or they withdraw, then dad draws, or mom withdraws in the cold atmosphere, and that's how they handle every conflict, and then eventually wears off, and then the next day, or it's OK, that's how they learn to resolve conflict. And so when they go into their marriages, they know nothing different. And so they walk in, and they're handling conflict the way their family always is. So, it's fair to say then transparency is the hallmark of a good marriage? Absolutely. If we're not transparent, there's no way we can deal with the issues. You know, the issues don't go away simply by ignoring them. And a lot of people handle them that way, they just hope they'll go away and they ignore them. But conflict is not a bad thing. We think conflict, oh, that's a bad thing, but I don't view it as bad a thing. I view it as opportunities for growth. Because if we all, there are sometimes couples who succeed, actually succeed in becoming clones of each other, because they both fear conflict. So they cover over their differences and they come in and their whole marriage is a pretense. And it's not that satisfying. The first thing that's important in resolving conflict is to come at it, not from an accusation point of view, but say, but talking about how can we make things better. There's some things that I'm not sure how to handle well, and so I thought if we can sit down and talk about it, that maybe we can figure out a better way to handle it. Now it's a "we" thing, not a "you" thing. Once you make it "you" thing, it's an accusation. If it's a "we" thing, then, and in every way, you say, well, it's not, I'm not at fault. My part of my, my spouse is at fault. You say, no, in every conflict, each person is doing something wrong. Even if you think you are the one who is the victim, it's how you respond as a victim that may be part of the problem. So, so anytime I was working, when I worked with couples, I always talked about how they can digest each other's roles and, and, And how they can see that they have some things to do to grow in this relationship just as much as their partner does. So it’s a reciprocal thing. Marriage is a commitment borne on the wings of love that embraces the whole person, warts and all. Protecting your marriage from the assaults on its integrity and loyalty is paramount to preserving it. Many couples start marriage with false expectation, weak commitment, or past wounds – all that eventually come to the surface when relationships face challenges. It’s incumbent upon every couple to periodically assess the current state of their marriage to determine if there are any ways they relate to each other that are perceived to be disrespectful or that draw down the level of trust in one another. The unexamined life is simply not an option if you want a satisfying marriage. Contemporary marriages fail at close to 50%. For those who marry again, second marriages fail at 67% and third marriages at 73%. Most marriages die from apathy. Most of us don’t learn from failure the first time around. Divorce is trifling with God’s work…the truth is you will never have a union between two perfect people. Recommended Resources: Marriages in the Bible: What Do They Tell Us? By Gary H.

Big Cinco Danny Dimes a Starter and WNBA Marital Aides

By the time I met my wife, Amy, I was already 3 times married and divorced.    I had one child, my son, Jax.    I was tapped out on marriage, divorce, and everything that comes with it beyond heartache including financial loss.    Well, to my surprise, when I met Amy, I told her straight up.......   I'm not down with mariage at this point.    But over time, as I got to know her better, I learned she had never been married.    And so as we grew, I came to see there might be a possiblity of me getting married to her.    It's not like I was getting younger.    She's everything I'm not and I figured, I can't go wrong with that.   But I also realized part of the reason my first 3 marriages failed was because I was in them.    Well, when we decided to say yes, we didn't come up with a pre-nup.    We came up with a Marital Operating Agreement.    It words a bit better and there are some hard accountability measures  and agreements you have to make in order for the marriage to work.    In this episode, I'm going to break down every single element of our marital agreement from our personal health, raising children, infidelity, managing business, assets and everything you need to consider before you take the plunge.....especially when 62% of marriages are failing.    Lean in close.    Take notes.      About the THC Podcast    Nothing is off-limits in these weekly episodes of the Hardcore Closer Podcast with Ryan Stewman.  Politics, Finance, Religion, Tin-foil hat theories, and interdimensional space aliens.  Ryan Stewman takes a very factual approach to simplifying the most complex things we are experiencing in real time in this timeline.  Leave your feelings at the door and buckle up for a fresh perspective with no fluff, and just the hardcore stuff that reality is made of.

Open Forum: Pastor Amos reflected on the past year since closing the CFE local church in Atlanta, realizing his focus should have been on building community groups rather than traditional structures, which has led to a plan to launch CFE community groups in multiple cities starting in September. He emphasized the importance of adhering strictly to God's blueprint, using biblical stories and parables to illustrate the dangers of deviating from divine instruction, and highlighted the need for discernment even when advice comes from religious authorities. Discussions with Bose and Deborah explored balancing trust in church leadership with personal spiritual guidance, the significance of genuine mentorship in non-denominational churches, and navigating leadership challenges through faith. Marital dynamics were examined, with Pastor Amos and others discussing biblical submission, reconciling disagreements, and overcoming negative patterns influenced by spiritual factors. Practical advice was also shared on handling a bee sting, and Pastor Amos introduced the "working genius" concept to enhance group functionality. He concluded with gratitude for participant contributions and a prayer for healing and strength.

Ever woken up in a sweat because your husband ninja-changed the thermostat? Or caught him bingeing your show while you slept like it was no big deal? SAME. In this short and spicy episode, I'm diving into the micro-annoyances that aren't grounds for divorce… but definitely grounds for a dramatic sigh and maybe a blanket tug-of-war. We're talking snack theft, dishwasher sabotage, one-sip-left offenses, and the emotional support sandwich he stole. It's petty, it's real, it's marriage. Because the truth is, love isn't just in the big moments—it's in the daily battles over coffee cups and covers. Laugh with me (or send it to your partner as a gentle warning). Because if you can laugh about it? You're doing just fine.   Connect with me, I'd love any suggestions for future episodes.
