Episode #189 - Plank and Spec
Click the picture to listen to the episode.
So, a Sequoia Redwood and a nanoparticle of dust walk into a bar… What do they have in common? It’s no joke, it’s your marriage, of course! The Bible is stuffed full of powerful and famous verses that relate to our marriage relationships. And this week, the guys dig into Matthew 7:3-5, one of the least known and most powerful of those snippets from God’ Word concerning marital bliss. Just to give you a heads up. Jesus doesn’t call folks hypocrites very often…

Anthony Hopkins in Silence of the Lambs - "You don't play the villain like he's the villain, because the villain is the hero in his own story."
"Wagging never works!"
"Self-righteousness never works."
3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
"Accept that you're the problem within your marriage."
"When you're arguing both spouses shouldn't leave the argument until both have apologized."
Self assessment:
1) Do you focus on your spouses faults more often than you're thankful for him/her?
2) Do you believe your spouse is lucky to have you?
