The Marriage You Want Starts With You
from Brotherhood Forged: A Christian Men’s Podcast on Faith, Fatherhood & Leadership · host Joey Koontz and Paul Bengel
What if the marriage you’re praying for begins with the husband you’re becoming?It’s easy to focus on what we wish was different in our marriage. Better communication. More connection. More intimacy. Less tension.But the harder question is:What is God asking me to change?In this short Brotherhood Forged Weekly episode, we talk about what it means to go first in marriage.Love is a choice.Leadership looks like service.Your kids are watching how you love your spouse.Ephesians 5:25 says:“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.”Maybe the prayer isn’t only, “God, change my marriage.”Maybe it’s:“God, change me. Make me patient. Make me humble. Make me present. Make me the husband You’ve called me to be.”This week’s challenge:Serve your spouse without being asked. Don’t announce it. Don’t keep score. Don’t expect anything back.Go first.Brotherhood ForgedStay firm. Keep showing up.#BrotherhoodForged #ChristianMen #ChristianMarriage #MarriageAdvice #Husband #BiblicalMarriage #ChristianLeadership #MenOfGod #Marriage #Faith #Ephesians5
