Has a selfish act or a hurtful comment from your spouse caused you to think, “I thought they loved me?” or “Did I make a mistake marrying this person?” In this program, Chip Ingram confronts these common yet dangerous misbeliefs with powerful truth from Scripture. Better understand the relational fallout of this lie and the practical ways to eliminate these harmful thoughts from your mind when they arise.
Introduction: Among evangelical couples, what does the research actually say are the biggest issues in their life?”
- Marriage struggles
- Parenting in a secular culture
Fighting lies with truth
Lie #1:
- When I finally meet “the right person,” everything will work out fine.
The truth:
- Marrying the right person is CRUCIAL, but even with the greatest mate, a successful marriage requires following GOD’S DESIGN, putting in the hard work, persevering through difficulties, and relying on the Holy Spirit.
Key verse:
- Hebrews 10:36
Lie #2:
- When I experience disappointment, annoyance, and anger toward my spouse, that means I’m “falling out of love” and I may have married the wrong person.
The truth:
- CONFLICT and NEGATIVE emotions are not only normal, they are essential to learning to COMMUNICATE and forgive each other in the process of becoming one.
Key verse:
- Ephesians 4:32
Don’t buy the LIES. Do it GOD’S WAY.
