The WARM UP:
Six Essential Attitudes to Resolve Conflict with Your Wife
Men’s Small Group Meeting
There are six essential attitudes of the heart necessary to resolve conflict with your wife. If you apply them, you will resolve conflicts. If you don’t, you won’t. It’s really that simple.
Ever have conversations like this?
Wife: “I can’t believe you didn’t take the trash out like you said you would!”
Husband: “We’ll maybe I would take the trash out if you weren’t so angry and demanding in the way you tell me to take the trash out!”
Wife: “I shouldn’t have to even tell you to take the trash out; you should just see it and do it!”
Husband: “Maybe I would do more around the house if you were more grateful for the things I actually do”
Many couples fall into an endless cycle of “I would not have done this if you had not done that!” This conversation clearly violates “The Log & Speck Principle,” warm up step 3. The Bible tells us to “take the log out of our own eye, then we will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye” (Matt. 7:3-5). This is perhaps one of the biggest reasons most couples cannot resolve their own arguments. They keep trying to expose their partner’s flaw, before they fully resolve their own. It never works. Never! This is why God instructs us to fully commit to “The Log & Speck Principle” and at least 5 other essential principles.
Session 1—I commit to have my ultimate goal to be ________ ____________ (Rom. 8:29)
Session 2—I commit to seek and be open to know ways I am not ____ ________ (Ps. 139:23-24)
Session 3—I commit to fully apply the ______ ______ __________ principle (Matt. 7:3-5)
Session 4—I commit to walk in the _______ by ___________ _________ (1 Jn. 5:14,15; Eph. 5:18)
Session 5—I commit to transfer my _______ to ___ and focus on my ___________ (Phil. 2:5-10)
Session 6—I commit to develop and use the skill of ____________ ______________ (Rom. 12:15)

Cilicia & Marc
We have searched for answers for years about some of the issues and troubles that we had in our marriage. We’ve gone to church after church, we’ve sat down with the counsel of friends and close family members, we’ve attended secular counseling sessions, both individually and as a couple, and was still met with disappointment and no answers to the struggles in our marriage. . . .
