Relationship Priority

Craig Groeschel shares invaluable advice on prioritizing relationships, especially with one's spouse. He recalls a piece of wisdom from Anne Landers: "Neglect the rest of the world if you have to, but never neglect your spouse." This principle has guided him and his wife, Amy, to prioritize their marriage despite their busy lives. Craig explains how creating artificial deadlines and delegating tasks effectively allows him to make time for his relationship 1.

   

Love & Leadership

Craig also discusses the importance of love and leadership in his relationship with Amy. He strives to love her as Jesus loved the church, laying down his life to serve her. This commitment has been a cornerstone of their marriage from the beginning 2.

I will love her like Jesus loved the church. I'll lay down my life to serve her.

Love Languages

Understanding and speaking your partner's love language is crucial for fostering intimacy. Craig emphasizes that loving your partner in the way they want to be loved, rather than how you want to be loved, is key. He explains that women generally want to feel loved, cherished, and valued, while men often seek respect and admiration 3.

If you don't like what you're getting in a relationship, you need to look at what you're giving.
