If you want guaranteed conflict with your wife, keep practicing these simple habits as often as possible. They will eat away at any connection the two of you have and create a wall of silence and frustration. 😬🫣

You’d have to work to keep from applying these habits. It’s pretty easy to extinguish emotional intimacy with your wife.

If my study of God's Word is not shaping me into someone who looks more and more like Jesus, I am not "rightly handling the Word of God."

Christianity dominating culture is not the goal of discipleship. Attempting to do so is akin to wanting to be “like the other nations.” If culture organically changes because its people are becoming Christian, that’s a different thing altogether.
