Identifying Responsibility in Reconciliation

This session opens with a difficult question: what if one spouse is willing to change but discouraged because the other spouse is not? Mike and Connie respond with Scripture and encouragement to trust in God at these times especially.

Showing reverence to our husband does include having a useful process of appeal. Mrs. Walsh likens this to the role of radar, detecting the needs and weaknesses of the marriage. If the radar malfunctions, with fear or bitterness, serious consequences can be expected.

Have you ever been in an argument with someone, and knew that you were 100% right (or at least 90%)? Mike and Connie Walsh noticed this was happening rather frequently with them. The only problem was that each spouse assumed he or she was the right one!

The centurion in Jesus' day identified the value of the principle of authority and the rewards of seeing it at work in his own life. How many issues in our own lives and marriages could be solved by understanding where we fit in God's chain of command?! Schedules. Children.
