line hi hi how you all doing it's life with Quinn and Joe and this is my lovely beautiful gracious why Quinn and I'm Joe let's do another one I don't think the helmets kind of look but I don't think [Music] slide with God is so good come join us on this fun life where we put God in the center of everything hey everyone it's live with Wynn and Joe this is my beautiful wife Lynne I'm Joe and today we're gonna talk about some very interesting statistics that have arisen from this coronavirus thing they're they're kind of encouraging people if not mandating that people stay at home and don't move around so much and that's kind of the domestic violence has gone up by what something like 50% which is an unbelievable thing and other little things that have happened along the way what are some of the things that that we can do to kind of prevent scenarios from getting aggravated at home when we're spending time well you know that that's not happening with us no I mean so I mean we've been spending a lot of time together more than than we've ever been able to and you know it's it's created the opposite we realize we're so busy most of the time that we're actually embracing and embellishing staying home and slowing down for example we have been doing a lot more walking and talking and we've been cooking together playing games doing a lot with children working together reaching out for counsel and making sure that we're communicating to everyone as best as we can and there's dancing we're always dancing and most importantly you add humor to the marriage lots of laughter is essential so it's actually worked really good for us but some people not so much and that's a little scary it is scary so for us I see that what God's done in our situation is that time only created for us to be closer and then if time together is creating more anger and more angst and more animosity toward your spouse or your children then there's there's something there's something at the heart of that that's very very wrong let's return to the Scriptures and see if we can't find the secrets what's happening we're in Ephesians 5 wives submit to your husband's as to the Lord for the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church his body of which he is the Saviour now as the church submits to Christ so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything now for the husband's side of it husbands love your wives just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy cleansing her by washing with water through the word and to present her to himself as a radiant church without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish but holy and blameless that is beautiful beautiful in the same way a husband's ought to love their wives as their own bodies he who loves his wife loves himself and that that's pretty profound but if we could really kind of adhere to that I think it would preclude a lot of the things that are going on with with some of the aggravations that people are facing kind of being cooped up the way they are and you know even when if this coronavirus thing wasn't happening I think that that that sets a pretty good precedence for how a man needs to look at his his wife and how why should should look at her husband so that's huge I mean when you think about like the profoundness of that passage I know I've read it if I've read it once I've read it a hundred times and I still can't absorb really what it's saying all in one one I guess reading when I think about how that God is using the church the scripture is using the church as as as the husband so to speak and to to the wife I mean if you if you are submitting to your husband then in everything then how could happen there be anger how could there be angst how could there be anxiety you're just you're you're getting this opportunity to submit and then Christ he City ladies like them that's what the husband does he lays his life down and gives up his own life for her for the wife to make her radiant and beautiful and here I mean think about the focus [Music] so what is the husband focused on how can I lay my life down to make her radiant how can I lay my life down to make her beautiful and and spotless meaning pure from sin how can I lay my life think about how many men can honestly say that they have spent their life thinking about how can I help my wife lay down all her sin and then at the same time how many women are spending their time thinking about what can I do what can I do to submit what kind of to take care of like cooking or are just subjects that discussions that we've got to have over the last few weeks because of all this has only brought us closer as I'm learning more and more and learning more of his likes and dislikes and I'm anxious to go in there and and find a way to be even closer and to submit even more so that he's happy so that you're happy and you leave us amazingly I'm I'm astounded at how how amazing when is she's such a good companion and guys I know that it's easy to let things in the world either your hobbies or the pressures from work or just just the the daily things that come at us it's easy to kind of let those things take precedence in your life but we're supposed to put nothing before God but a very close second it says a man shall love his wife like Jesus loved the church and I don't think you can get too much more specific than that that's an amazing thing and I try and do that every day like she deserves it the things that she does make makes it easy for me to want to treat her that way and so there's this symbiosis when you start paying attention to what the Bible says about a marriage it really does work and I am I am the benefactor of such a of such a guy a great lady and you're so wonderful Wow I am praising God because this is it works so we're just getting closer and closer there's no domestic quarrels going on here what where our prayer is for all of you all out there listening that you all can take the challenge take this time to lay every selfish thing down and and stop taking things personally and realize that everyone has moobs but in those moves to be empathetic to the moon not to not to make the whole the mood of someone else you know you're challenged don't be competitive with your spouse [Music] the empathetic be loving be caring as the Bible says take care of your wife as you do your own body no one hates their body they they clothed they feed and I mean these things together it endears and makes for oneness and companionship and so that's our prayer out there get closer and get closer to your children I love it I love I love this time that God's given us and I'm thankful the closer I am to them and the more I do for him the more I love him and vice versa hey my lucky guy or would this is fun love you guys thank you you're joining us we're praying for your household be next time some people get closer to each other just back off no no I mean honestly some people some people like get closer okay make up something quick cameras rolling make up something worth that camera pointer to does [Music] [Music]
