Day 798 – The Perfect Marriage – Ask Gramps

Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy Welcome to Day 798 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom The Perfect Marriage &#8211; Ask Gramps Thank you for joining us for our five days per week wisdom and legacy building podcast. This is Day 798 of our trek, and it is time for our Philosophy Friday series. Each Friday we will ponder some of the basic truths and mysteries of life and how they can impact us in creating our living legacy. As we continue on this trek called life, sometimes we have questions about life, so our Friday trek is a time where we can “Ask Gramps.”  Gramps will answer questions that you would like to ask your dad or granddad, but for whatever reason are not able to. No matter how old we are, I know that all of us would like the opportunity to ask dad or gramps questions about life in many areas.  We will address areas such as finances, relationships, health/fitness, business/work, home repairs/renovations, seasons of life, spiritual/Biblical questions, and any others areas that come our way. As your fellow sojourner and mentor on this trek that we call life, it is my goal to provide you with practical wisdom and advice about any area of life. It is crucial that I receive a constant flow of questions, so please submit your questions to [email protected]. And I will answer your questions on our Friday podcast. We are broadcasting from our studio at The Big House in Marietta, Ohio. Marriage is the first institution designed by God himself. It is designed to be both wonderful and beautiful, a picture of Christ and the church. It does have its challenges, though, as two independent lives are merged into one. Over the years there have been both correct and incorrect teachings about what God’s design is so that marriage can flourish and grow. More specifically, what roles should the husband and wife fulfill to allow the marriage to be as harmonious as possible? Paula and I will be celebrating our 39th anniversary this August, and for the most part, we have an extremely wonderful and fulfilling relationship. So the question for today is… &#8220;Hey Gramps, how can we structure our relationship so that our marriage is pleasant, fulfilling, and honoring to God?” The Perfect Marriage <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-17397 aligncenter" src="https://wisdom-trek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/The-Perfect-Marriage-1-300x180.jpg" alt="The Perfect Marriage 1" width="300" height="180" srcset="https://wisdom-trek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/The-Perfect-Marriage-1-300x180.jpg 300w, https://wisdom-trek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/The-Perfect-Marriage-1-610x366.jpg 610w,...
