5 Intriguing People Christian Women Can Talk to About Their Marriage Problems

By Tiffany Godfrey

While marriage problems often drive many Christian couples to take a detour on their marriage vows, Christian women have a responsibility to consider many options before choosing to get a divorce. Marriage problems often become emotionally draining to women, which can push them to receive the negative words and perspectives of others. For this reason, if we're not careful, we can become bitter and cynical about marriage, and ultimately make the unwise decision to divorce.

As women, we often become vulnerable to sharing our problems with anyone who will listen and seemingly show compassion. While it's not a sin to share your heart with other people, you should be mindful of your listeners because many people will influence you to make improper decisions about your marriage.

In fact, here are some people you should absolutely refuse to share your marriage problems with under any circumstances. People who you should stay away from when you want to open up to about your marriage problems include:

Divorced and single girlfriends. Other women who are also experiencing marriage problems. Men such as co-workers, ex-boyfriends, ex-husbands, fellow ministry workers, friends, acquaintances on Internet social networks, etc. Family and friends who don't have your best interest at heart. Mere strangers.

Nevertheless, while there are some people who you shouldn't talk to about your marriage, there are some people who you can talk to when you're discouraged and confused about what to do next.

Save My Marriage: Can You Stay Together If You Have Serious Disagreements?

By Drew Graham

A lot of couples have disagreements and in a lot of cases these disagreements can lead to divorce. On the other hand there are couples that disagree about almost everything and yet are able to maintain a healthy marriage. The difference is that the couples that stay together understand that they don't have to agree on everything.

One of the biggest myths there is about marriage is that you and your partner have to agree on everything, this is actually not the case. There is little chance that the two of you are going to agree on everything and in truth the marriage would be quite dull if you did. You have to accept that you are different people and you are not going to agree on everything.

Are you a newlywed?
Is your marriage having problems and
you don’t know how to fix it?
Are you fed up and ready to give up?

If any of these questions describes you, then Marriage 101 is for you. Marriage is a journey, not a fairytale. It is a commitment that two very different people make to spend their lives together, for better or worse. When the bad times come—and they will come—most people run. However, these are opportunities to grow both individually and as a couple, and to build a strong family.

Marriage 101 shares my personal struggles in my marriage and how those struggles led to separation. But it also shares how God restored our broken relationship and stopped us from divorce. The breakdown of our marriage was slow and steady, and after four years of fighting, we separated. At that time, I was a born-again believer, married to the love of my life. After realizing that fairytale marriages do not exist, my faith led me on a spiritual journey to discover why God created the covenant of marriage and whether I could truly fulfill the vows that I made.

The result is my book, Marriage 101. Using the fairytale of Sleeping Beauty as a parable, Marriage 101 helps the reader to understand God’s plan and purpose for the marriage relationship. It also provides practical marriage advice that will allow you to rebuild your marriage upon a strong foundation, just as I did.

Thanks, Jewell!

Mrs. Powell,

I wanted to express to you how refreshing it is to find a book that offers insight to God's purpose for marriage. This book has revealed so much to me. I'm so excited about sharing this book with every married couple I know. I purchased a few to share. I also sent out an email to all my married family and friend encouraging them to read this book. A girlfriend of mine suggested we talk about the book at our weekly lunch dates. This is a great way for us to share how the book has helped us in areas we might be struggling. God bless you for sharing and caring!

Thanks,
