Marriage Counseling Part 1
FAIRFIELD BAPTIST FELLOWSHIP CHURCH
Pastor's comments regarding communication in marriage: In marriage counseling I am often asked the question, "Why can't we communicate?" OR "Why can't we talk about our problems without fighting?" Those are good questions and often are a major part of a marriage falling apart and ending up in divorce court. In these short articles we will look at several communication road blocks.
Have you ever had a conversation with your spouse that ended without anything being accomplished? You talk over an issue for hours and it still ends in an uncomfortable stalemate. You walk away and wonder what went wrong? Why couldn't we resolve this problem? If you've had one of these conversations, then you know what a frustrating experience it can be. However, what is even more frustrating is when couples regularly communicate this way over the majority of issues in their marriages. Over time this communication breakdown will lead a couple to conclude that nothing can be resolved by talking together. Consequently this couple will slowly drift apart.
If you sense this despair in your relationship with your spouse, then I would encourage you to read very carefully the counsel in coming weeks. If you have questions or comments, please feel free to call church at 931-456-2525 or e-mail Pastor Shelton at church@fbfchurch.com.
