In this week's episode, Emerson speaks at Liberty University with a message titled, "Wounded Healer." He shares his personal story in order to help others understand how God can use past wounds to bring about healing.
Emerson and Jonathan Eggerichs address common obstacles couples face even after engaging with the Love and Respect framework. They highlight several key hurdles: blame, poor communication, stress, and resisting unconditional love and respect in part 1 by examining the testimonies of those who have written Emerson over the years.
Emerson and Jonathan discuss the Rewarded Cycle, the last cycle from the Love & Respect book. The "why" or incentive of doing marriage a certain way is given, whether a marriage is perceived as good or bad. This is a challenging episode, but hope-filled.
A recent social media post had a simple quote from The Language Of Love & Respect, which hundreds of people commented on and shared. The quote was about the Jesus way of talking within marriage and relationships. Emerson and Jonathan discuss this during today's episode, including how to speak words that are Truthful, Uplifting, Forgiving, Thankful, and Scriptural (T.U.F.T.S.).
Emerson and Jonathan discuss the reasons for marital issues such as ignorance of God's command, overlooking each other's needs, offensive reactions, Expecting the other to change first, loss of hope and closing off, and fear of forgiveness.
