  • Marriage is an act of will that signifies and involves a mutual gift, which unites the spouses and binds them to their eventual souls, with whom they make up a sole family - a domestic church.

  • Husbands and wives, recognize that in marriage you have become one flesh. If you live for your private pleasure at the expense of your spouse, you are living against yourself and destroying your joy. But if you devote yourself with all your heart to the holy joy of your spouse, you will also be living for your joy and making a marriage after the image of Christ and His church.

    John Piper (2011). “Desiring God, Revised Edition: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist”, p.210, Multnomah
  • Having a really good partner, whether it's a good friend, someone in your family or a spouse, is always the greatest thing to have when you have a new challenge that you're facing.

  • So often times we see these films that erode human dignity...films that deny the transcendent moral order of the moral universe. They're always eroding natural affections for families. Fathers betray their commitments, children's are always portrayed as brats and disobedient, marriages are always in crisis and struggle. I think (for) most of us, that's not the lives we live. We're always being challenged, we always have challenges but we love our families, we love our spouse, we love our children.

    "Jason Jones launches Movie to Movement to move Hollywood toward positive storytelling". Interview with John W. Kennedy, www.beliefnet.com. October 2011.
  • Ask yourself, "How are my thoughts, words and deeds affecting my friends, my spouse, my neighbour, my child, my employer, my subordinates, my fellow citizens?"

  • It takes three to make love, not two: you, your spouse, and God. Without God people only succeed in bringing out the worst in one another. Lovers who have nothing else to do but love each other soon find there is nothing else. Without a central loyalty life is unfinished.

    Loyalty   Two   People  
  • Married life can seem as if it's only five days long. The first day you meet, the second day you marry, the third day your raise your children, the fourth day you meet your grandchildren, and the fifth day you die first or bury your spouse to go home alone for the first time in many years.

    Children   Home   Years  
    Mark Driscoll, Grace Driscoll (2013). “Real Marriage: The Truth About Sex, Friendship, and Life Together”, p.36, Thomas Nelson Inc
  • It is the first day because it has never been before and the last day because it will never be again. Be alive, if you can, all through this day - today - of your life. What's to be done? What's to be done? Follow your feet. Put on the coffee. Start the orange juice, the bacon, the toast. Then go wake up your children and your spouse. Think about the work of your hands. Live in the needs of the day.

    Frederick Buechner (1970). “The alphabet of grace”
  • Our parents, our children, our spouses, and our friends will continue to press every button we have, until we realize what it is that we don't want to know about ourselves, yet. They will point us to our freedom every time.

    Byron Katie (2010). “Question Your Thinking, Change the World”, p.80, ReadHowYouWant.com
  • Post-Christian man is not the same as Pre-Christian man. He is as far removed as virgin is from widow: there is nothing in common except want of a spouse: but there is a great difference between a spouse-to-be and a spouse lost.

  • People are in one of two states in a relationship,” Gottman went on. “The first is what I call positive sentiment override, where positive emotion overrides irritability. It’s like a buffer. Their spouse will do something bad, and they’ll say, ‘Oh, he’s just in a crummy mood.’ Or they can be in negative sentiment override, so that even a relatively neutral thing that a partner says gets perceived as negative.

    Two   People   Negative  
    Malcolm Gladwell (2007). “Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking”, p.20, Hachette UK
  • If you want to write, write it. That's the first rule. And send it in, and send it in to someone who can publish it or get it published. Don't send it to me. Don't show it to your spouse, or your significant other, or your parents, or somebody. They're not going to publish it.

  • You really don't have to worry about your spouse, as long as you trust him or her. If you trust your spouse or whoever you're in a relationship with, everybody else doesn't matter.

    Long   Worry   Matter  
    "The Best Man Holiday" Interview with Kam Williams, www.pittsburghurbanmedia.com.
  • You who have never “been there” in the throes of grief, have no idea what is going on inside the head of the grieving spouse: the scattered thoughts, the constant worry that we will forget something or someone in our fog-induced state, that strange feeling of not quite “being all there” when out in social situations, the pall that covers everything, like a cloak of sadness that never lifts.

  • Marriage. Isn't it great? Each time you fall back in love with your [spouse] it gets better and better.

    Fannie Flagg (2006). “Can't Wait to Get to Heaven: A Novel”, Random House Incorporated
  • [Last words:] My Lord, it is time to move on. Well then, may your will be done. O my Lord and my Spouse, the hour that I have longed for has come. It is time to meet one another.

    Saint Teresa (of Avila) (2003). “The Interior Castle”, Riverhead Books (Hardcover)
  • Why do you think there's so many thousands of Cuban doctors in Florida? Because they all had to leave Cuba. Because doctors were rich, and so the [Fidel] Castro government began confiscating all their property. Not much different from this plan to tax you at a higher rate if you and your family, you and your spouse make over $250,000. You're rich! So they must confiscate more your money.

  • You can only afford to be generous if you actually have some money in the bank to give. In the same way, if your only source of love and meaning is your spouse, then anytime he or she fails you, it will not just cause grief but a psychological cataclysm. If, however, you know something of the work of the Spirit in your life, you have enough love "in the bank" to be generous to your spouse even when you are not getting much affection or kindness at the moment.

  • Actors are always weird about acting with their spouse or their boyfriend or girlfriend, but more because they think audiences will find it boring.

  • We often marvel at how introverted, geeky, kid 'blossom' into secure and happy adults. We liken it to a metamorphosis. However, maybe it's not the children who change but their environments. As adults they get to select the careers, spouses, and social circles that suit them. They don't have to live in whatever culture they'er plunked into.

    Children   Kids   Circles  
    Susan Cain (2012). “Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking”, p.253, Broadway Books
  • No change of job, no increased income, no new home, no new electronic device, or no new spouse is going to make things better inside of you.

    Jobs   Home   Income  
  • A happy home is one in which each spouse grants the possibility that the other may be right, though neither believes it

  • You have to make a switch. Decide today to start appreciating your spouse's strengths and learn to downplay their weaknesses. If you do, your marriage will be filled with more peace, unity and love, and you'll see God bless your marriage in greater ways.

  • You can fire your secretary, divorce your spouse, abandon your children. But they remain your co-authors forever.

  • If Jesus Christ were to sit down with us and ask for an accounting of our stewardship, I am not sure He would focus much on programs and statistics. What the Savior would want to know is the condition of our heart. He would want to know how we love and minister to those in our care, how we show our love to our spouse and family, and how we lighten their daily load. And the Savior would want to know how you and I grow closer to Him and to our Heavenly Father.

  • Take God for your spouse and friend and walk with him continually, and you will not sin and will learn to love, and the things you must do will work out prosperously for you.

    Prayer   Work Out   Sin  
  • In my experience when a friend unloaded about a boyfriend or spouse, the listener soaked up the complaint and remembered it long after the speaker had forgiven the offense.

  • It's one of the greatest comforts of working in ministry: the unspoken certitude that your spouse did not marry you for your money.

    Mark Hart (2013). “Tweet Inspiration: Faith in 140 Characters (or Less)”, p.11, Franciscan Media
  • Marriage isn't a contest to see who is most often right. Marriage requires being what the Japanese call 'the wise bamboo,' which means you bend so you don't break. Treat your spouse with the flexibility and respect you would give to a top client. Think how we treat clients; We smile, we are polite, we listen to their ideas. Never forget that your spouse is your most important client.

    Wise   Mean   Thinking  
  • We will all be far better spouses, parents, and leaders as we take time to grow in prayer.

    Mike Bickle (2014). “Growing in Prayer”, p.16, Charisma Media
