446-Overcome Your Own Apathy (Exhaustion or Pride?)

Friday, August 30, 2024 • Duration 22:33

There's a profound truth that can often be overlooked: love, in its truest form, is sustainably sacrificial. This means loving your spouse in a way that endures, even when it's challenging.

If you're a spouse who is tempted towards apathy—losing hope and withdrawing—it can feel like a deep, unending chasm. This apathy might stem from various sources: exhaustion from the relentless demands of daily life, pride that blocks genuine connection, unforgiveness that creates barriers, or perhaps a combination of all these factors. Whatever the reason, it's crucial to recognize these signs before they evolve into a dangerous pattern that jeopardizes your relationship.

There may be times when your spouse's attempts to reach out (or lack thereof) seem ineffective or even hurtful. I encourage you to see beyond the surface and engage with the deeper purpose of marriage -- to make God proud of you.

Remember, you're not loving your spouse for a specific result; you're doing it because you love God. That love for God will sustain you when you're not seeing the fruit of your efforts. He CAN fill us with all joy and peace, irrespective of our circumstances or the immediate outcomes of our actions.

Even amidst the temptation to lose hope and become apathetic. Don't. Instead, look to the Lord. Rejoice in Him, and trust that God is a God of hope. Your perseverance is not in vain, even when it feels like you're giving more than your fair share in loving and meeting your partner's needs.

Love,

Belah & Team

PS - If you are wanting to fight apathy, fight for your marriage, or just even get some clarity for your marriage... we would love to talk with you. Schedule a free Clarity Call at delightyourmarriage.com/cc.

PPS - Here is a quote from a recent graduate:
"My biggest celebrations have been: Forgiveness- I had no idea how much resentment I had towards my wife. There is no doubt in my mind that she felt that… I learned to not only forgive her, but look at some of those things as a strength for her… Replacing bad habits with good daily habits of first thanking God for my blessings. praying for my wife, shouting my faith statement and focusing on making my marriage the best it can be. I learned that it is all up to me. I know God is with me every step of the way, but I have to be the leader of my life and my marriage."

445-Revive Your Marriage: Overcome Apathy Before It's Too Late

Friday, August 23, 2024 • Duration 27:11

Perhaps the most heartbreaking situations I encounter are when one spouse becomes apathetic—losing hope—and decides to "pull the plug" on the relationship. When a spouse gives up hope, apathy sets in, leading them to consider divorce, an affair, or even a secret addiction because they feel their spouse isn't meeting their needs.

I may not fully understand all the dynamics that have brought your marriage to its current state, but my hope is that you recognize the warning signs before apathy takes hold.

LISTEN to your spouse's heartcry. Don't let them lose hope because their attempts to communicate with you have been ignored. Yes, their communication may have been ineffective—perhaps controlling, critical, or accusatory—but underneath it all, they are expressing a hurt that you are overlooking.

If you ignore it long enough, they may stop hoping things will change. Tragically, this can lead to apathy and the potential destruction of your marriage.

As a marriage coach who genuinely cares, I urge you: please don't wait until apathy sets in before you start paying attention to what your spouse is trying to communicate. Even if their words make you feel like a failure, could you, just possibly, listen to the deeper message? They are crying out to be loved in the way they need to feel loved, and if you don't respond, they may become so weary that the dangerous temptation of apathy takes hold.

NOTE: If you're the spouse who seems to be doing more than your fair share of loving and meeting your partner's needs, know this: your reward will be great, far beyond what you might receive in this life. Don't stop. Don't let apathy take root in your heart. Remember, God is a God of hope, and He will fill you with hope as you trust in Him. He doesn't want you to be hopeless. Trust in God. Love, Belah PS - If you're on the verge of losing hope and becoming apathetic about your marriage, we want to help. And if you're worried that your spouse might be feeling this way, we want to help too.

Your next step is a free, "low-stakes" conversation called a Clarity Call. We'd love to hear what's going on and potentially be the lifeline that prevents disaster—God has worked miracles in situations like yours before. But it takes courage to take that first step of HOPE. Speak to a compassionate Clarity Advisor: delightyourmarriage.com/cc PPS -- Here is a quote from a recent graduate: "I had grown so apathetic towards my husband that I KNEW this was very dangerous. I had built a case against him in my mind for the ways he did not appreciate me or accept me... I am a highly sensitive person with strong feelings, so to have little to no feeling towards my husband was intolerable to me. This is what drove me to DYM... A truly KEY realization I had to admit, was that I was a "bickering wife" and that I had been undermining him, disrespecting him, and deeply wounding him... I am so convicted of how it tore down my marriage, impacted my husband's self-esteem, and definitely was negative example to our children... Once I admitted that, I was able to grow!"

436-Male Leadership (Actually)

Friday, June 21, 2024 • Duration 48:08

Clarity is a Christian's speciality.

Amidst a confused culture, a clear understanding of God's word is what we need.

If you're a husband, I invite you to consider how Jesus led and what the Bible says about a husband's leadership in the family.

If you're a wife, I invite you to hear what a man can be (really) so you are happy to be led.

My story started without good role modeling.

And then I tried to "submit" and it was soul crushing.

Then I decided I would NOT submit, and it was stressful, frustrating, and deeply painful.

Then I discovered God's way (though I still make mistakes at times), and it has made both my husband and I flourish.

I can lead in many, many ways outside of our family -- but I love that in our home I am not the leader. My husband is trustworthy and good to me and our children.

I hope you can catch a vision of what it can mean for you as a man or a woman to empower the right order of family.

We are to be a light on a hill for the non-believers.

I hope you'll curiously seek to gain perspective and growth into more and more of who God wants you to be in and through your marriage so you can do more for the Kingdom of God.

Love,
Belah

PPS - Here a quote from a recent graduate:

Before the Masculinity Reclaimed program: "I had quite a few struggles when starting the program...we were arguing quite a lot, I was defensive in my responses and even blamed [her] for the issues. I also hadn't been intentional in terms of dating or cherishing her for a long time and she was feeling neglected and getting more and more upset about the situation.

362-Healing from Sexual Trauma. Lisa's Transformation Story

Friday, October 14, 2022 • Duration 41:01

Do you feel broken? Dirty? Ashamed?

These are all normal feelings for a victim of sexual trauma.

Do you know what feelings Lisa now has?

Freedom. Confidence. Trust.

One in four, or even one in three women, have been victims of sexual abuse.

One in six men have been.

So, many of us need the HOPE for healing Lisa gives us.

Was it instant?

Was it easy to confront?

Was it comfortable to start this process?

No.

She had to have courage to get out and join a healing process to get to the other side where God ultimately wanted her to be.

You will love her story and the encouragements she gives.

Especially the one and most important thing that she wants you to know, if you've been abused.

Love & Blessings,

Belah

PS - If you'd like to get "vision", the opportunity for "intention" and the "means" to transformation (as Dallas Willard says)...

I invite you to sign up for a Clarity Call. You'll work with a Clarity Advisor to discern that vision. delightyourmarriage.com/cc

Looking forward to seeing how God heals you!

361-Preventing and Healing from Infidelity. Interview with Gary Thomas

Friday, October 7, 2022 • Duration 01:06:42

"Betrayal to a marriage is what dynamite is to a door" says Gary Thomas.

Obliterating all trust, safety, dreams...

Could there be hope?

Could there be restoration?

And...

How could this have been prevented?

This is what we discuss on today's episode.

If these are your questions, Gary gives a lot of insight I think you'll want to listen in to.

What can you do as a couple to right the ship?

What can you as a couple do to come together and see how to build your marriage with strength and solidness -- keeping any explosives far, far away.

Check out Gary's work and his new book at garythomas.com -- (also he has many other books that you'll want to check out!)

Love & Blessings,

Belah

PS -- We'd love to help you heal your marriage no matter what the issue is, and if you're looking for a program to come alongside other men and/or women, I invite you to go to delightyourmarriage.com/cc to speak to a Clarity Advisor to see how we can support you.

PPS -- A recent grad wrote:
"Massively improved our marriage.

Brought me closer to God. Helped me see my wife in an entirely different way. Set us on a path to healing.

Facilitate mind-blowing, real-deal sexual intimacy...

...filled with lots of explanations of what and why things need to occur, but it's also very heavy on HOW to do things, which is missing from all other marriage content out there. Plus, Belah's insight is extraordinary.

I never once questioned if what I spent on MR was worth it, because without question it was." Husband or wife, sign up for a Clarity Call now:

360-Can You Release Sexual Anxiety While Engaged? Transformation Stories

Friday, September 30, 2022 • Duration 47:22

Are you getting close to marriage and the looming thought of a healthy sex life gives anxiety?

I invite you to listen in to these two women who were virgins when they got engaged (one is now married) and hear how they processed through the anxiety.

And now on the other side of the program, they have a confidence and a relaxed sense around something that used to be very difficult to even think about.

Maybe you or someone you know needs insights around marriage and intimacy before they start this journey.

I hope this conversation blesses and encourages you!

Belah

PS -- If you want to see how we can serve you in your particular situation, sign up for a Clarity Call at delightyourmarriage.com/cc

PPS - A woman in the Delighted Wife program shared this recently:

This programme is Christ-centred, led by an amazing loving, wise, compassionate, trustworthy team.

They have all 'been there' in marriage challenges themselves so speak with humility and empathy. There's lots of laughter too which is so good.

This programme is about sex but so much more. If a person engages and does the work it will be deeply transformational. This may not be in the way they expect...

I wish I had this programme just before and in the early years of our marriage.

359-What is TRUE Masculinity? Convo with Kyle

Friday, September 23, 2022 • Duration 01:13:53

Enrollment for the program closes tonight, Masculinity Reclaimed delightyourmarriage.com/minvite

-----

Today's podcast episode...

What is a strong man?

What is a true man of God?

What is the masculinity God desires of you?

That's the topic Kyle and I discuss today.

Lots of really fresh ideas, insights, frameworks, and also very, very old ways of viewing the nature of how God designed men.

Kyle is super -- you're going to love his insights and heart after the Lord.

Gosh, I'm excited for you to hear what it's all about!

358-Rapid Fire Transformations (Part 4)

Tuesday, September 20, 2022 • Duration 32:14

Wow -- God is so good.

Men are joining the 3-month program Masculinity Reclaimed because they're ready to become the men that God has called them to be (and as it turns out... that is very attractive to their wives... the results are intimate, as you'll hear.)

I want you to listen to these transformation stories (several shortened stories that haven't been on the podcast before, so you can hear what God is doing!)

If you're ready to take the leap and say I am going to risk the money and invest the time and effort for the next 3 months to see the results that God is clearly doing in others' lives and marriages

357-Do You TRUST God with Your Intimacy?

Friday, September 16, 2022 • Duration 34:45

Is Jesus the Lord of your life in EVERY area?

Are you trusting God in everything except your marriage?

Are you saying, "Yes, I will follow," but then when Jesus says to sacrifice for your spouse, that's where you draw the line to do it your own way?

Is your emotional intimacy with your spouse in God's hands?

Is your spiritual intimacy with your spouse in God's hands?

Is your physical intimacy with your spouse in God's hands?

Or, have you decided (like I too often do, sadly) "God, in this area, I can do it my way"?

God is really interested in your marriage.

Your spouse is the closest relationship to you.

Whom you can influence the most -- and they influence you the most.

So... if you decide to do marriage your own way, that's a big deal.

I was recently reminded that when I don't TRUST God, I suffer... often, unnecessarily.

When I don't trust God, and I try to do it my own way...the work that God was in the middle of doing -- behind the scenes -- I can ROYALLY mess up!

The lesson I invite you to learn from my fumble is: TRUST God in your situation.

TRUST God in the way He set up marriage and your role (husband and wife) and witness God move in your

emotional

spiritual

and

physical

intimacy.

356-How to Encourage Your Man (my husband joins me!)

Tuesday, September 6, 2022 • Duration 52:40

**Masculinity Reclaimed: Foundations course is starting Monday, September 12, 2022 -- it's on-demand training but will only be available for about a week, so register now: delightyourmarriage.com/menstraining**

I've been posting a lot of resources for men, so this one is for the ladies (and the curious men :)

I used to be very confused on what my husband needed from me. A lot of women that I have worked with feel like it comes down to a clean house, hot meals and happy kids.

And when that's not enough for him, it feels very unfair. That she is doing ALL of this and he's still grumpy and unsatisfied.

She may even have intimacy as a part of their lives, but he still doesn't seem to care.

What is missing?

Well, it took a while, but by God's grace through trial and error, learning from mentors, books and courses... now I'm at a spot where I can give you the keys I wish I had!

And I made it into a handy acronym so it's easy to remember:

RAWS.

Super simple. But, not easy.

See that's God kindness. I've noticed, that in order to love our spouse well, we wives have to deny ourselves and choose to love our God-given assignment (our husband).

And that choice, every day, makes us more like Him.

He's not like us, he's not designed like us. God made your husband unique and special.

And it's my privilege to let you hear from my husband and what he recommends to us.

Also, for the curious gents who plan to listen -- he's got some GREAT advice for you too!
