Episode 225: Do You Even Want This Kind of Marriage?

Send us Fan MailWould our reaction to Christian marriage advice change if we realize how many people who write that advice are actually in abusive or destructive marriages? What if people in those marriages are more drawn to write marriage advice to process how they're feeling?Today we look at two different women that Focus on the Family have held up to be emulated. One is a woman who has written prolifically for them, and when you look at her articles and what she reveals about her relationship, a TON of red flags are present. The other is a woman whose husband was jailed for domestic violence, but then she prayed, he repented, and now they lead Love & Respect seminars together. And Focus on the Family thinks this is a positive message.Today Sheila Gregoire is joined by her husband Keith and by abuse educator Sarah McDugal.To Support Us:Join our Patreon for as little as $5 a month to support our workOr, for tax deductible donations in the U.S., support our Good Fruit Faith Initiative through the Bosko FoundationAnd check out our Merch at our store! Things Mentioned in the Podcast:The article in the Revealer about Elisabeth Elliot's marriageMy article detailing Focus on the Family's Facebook post praising the man who was jailed for domestic violence, as well as the letter I sent to Jim DalyMy article on TradWife influencers and my concern for themOur podcast on Power of a Praying WifeOur one sheet download on Love & RespectFocus on the Family's article "It's the Little Things"Our Open Letter to Focus on the FamilyFind Sarah McDugal:Follow Sarah on FacebookFind her at Wilderness to WildSupport the showJoin Sheila at Bare Marriage.com!Check out her books:The Great Sex Rescue She Deserves BetterThe Marriage You Want and the Study Guide The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex and The Good Guy's Guide to Great SexAnd she has an Orgasm Course and a Libido course too!Check out all her courses, FREE resources, social media, books, and so much more at Sheila's LinkTree.
