Sometimes the greatest spiritual warfare strategy a man can use…is taking his wife on a date!
No seriously. Put the phone down. Put the to-do list down. Put the “I’ll get to it later” excuses down.
Pursue her! Show up for her! Laugh with her! Choose her, again and again!
The world tells men to be busy but Jesus tells men to be present. “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her.” — Ephesians 5:25
Christ didn’t love from a distance, he stepped in, leaned in, and poured out. And listen brothers, marriage isn’t something we “set and forget.” It’s something we have to build, guard, and invest in...every day.
This is my wife and I today, laughing, walking, enjoying time away from the daily noise. Not because everything is perfect, but because everything is worth fighting for.
To the men out there: When’s the last time you took your wife out on purpose? Not just out of obligation, not because it was “time, but because she is a gift from God.
Call the sitter. Schedule the time. Plan the day. Lead your marriage with love.
Your wife doesn’t need a perfect man, she needs a present one!
Let’s be those men!
Let’s build marriages that last.
Let’s love like Christ — with joy, sacrifice, and intentionality.
