Do you live with your wife in an understanding way? – an event opportunity for married men

Posted by Carey 
· Saturday, January 4th, 2014 

One of the passages that the LORD has graciously used to kindly “beat me up” since the early days of my marriage is 1 Peter 3:7

Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered. 1 Peter 3:7

Over the years I’ve learned (many times the “hard way”) what it means to live with Mindi in an “understanding way” as Peter instructs.

It’s more than:

  • being nice
  • providing income
  • being at home (instead of at the bar, the gym, the office, etc.)
  • not yelling
  • helping out with the dishes now and then
  • not leaving your underwear on the floor…

It’s about HER.

Guys… we have got to learn to UNDERSTAND our spouses. Peter says that when we live with them in that way… things are being done God’s way.

An event for married men

For the longest time, I’ve had a heart to share what I’ve learned in this area with those who need it most.

Married men.

Married Christian men who want more for their marriages but may not know exactly how to accomplish it.

I know you guys… you truly WANT to care for your wife well, but you’re like me sometimes:

  • proud
  • defensive
  • uncertain what to do
  • confused by the differences between how you think and feel and how she thinks and feels

Did I get it right?

I’ve finally sensed the LORD telling me it’s time… to put on an event for men that will help us, together, to explore some of those issues and come out on the other side better equipped to love our wives as we really want to.

It’s called:

LOGOBANNER

It’s intentionally going to be for a small group of men -8 to 10, max. If there is a greater demand than that… I’ll schedule more of these events.

It’s a small-group format because I think it’s important that we have time to discuss and that everyone has the opportunity to express the details of their own situation and their own frustrations.

That’s how we can know how to best help each other as brothers in Christ.

uwwAnd that’s how we’ll be able to discern the best way to apply the truths of scripture to the situations we face.

It’s going to be a great time… and I’d love to see you there.

As I said – space is limited, so if you are at all interested, don’t wait. (But I will start a waiting list if needed).

Thanks guys… I pray God’s blessing on you, your wife, and your marriage.
