The 3 P's that Will Poison Your Marriage (Revisited)

from Fierce Marriage · host Ryan and Selena Frederick

Marriage is God’s gift for joy and sanctification — but three subtle poisons can kill it: Pennies, Perversion, and Pride.Pennies – Loving money breeds fear, comparison, and discontent. Antidote: Seek first God’s kingdom (Matt 6:25–34).Perversion – Porn, withholding, or distortion twist God’s good gift of sex. Antidote: Pursue regular, healing intimacy as worship (1 Cor 7:5).Pride – “I know better” fuels unforgiveness and division. Antidote: Look to the humble Servant-King and forgive as Christ forgave us (Matt 20:28, Eph 4:32).Spot the poison, repent fast, and watch God restore joy to your covenant. Short, scriptural, and straight to the heart — hit play with your spouse.RESOURCES:Master marital communication: https://speak.fiercemarriage.comTake the 31-Day Pursuit Challenge: https://31daypursuit.comPray for your spouse with intention: https://40prayers.comTo learn more about becoming a Christian, visit: https://thenewsisgood.comThis ministry is entirely listener-supported.
