Would you like to dance? Well, if you’re a good Baptist (and Josh most certainly is not!), the answer would an unequivocal “no.” And that would be the correct answer for all of us when it comes to the Protest Polka. This deadly relationship dance is one of the main indicators of marriages that don’t make it past the 5-year mark. Listen in as the guys, two step their way through this issue and tango their way to a solution…ok, I’m completely done with dancing puns.

Self-esteem. What is it? How do we acquire it? And how do we build it within our child? Is self-esteem even important? Tune in this week as the guys talk all things self-esteem and your child.

How we build self-esteem in our children:
- We can't just tell them how good and special they are all the time
- Make sure we allow for failure
- They need to be told they have sinned and that's why we need Jesus
- Work. Allow them to struggle
- Random expressions of love and pride

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."
Dr. Susan Johnson - Demon Dialogue
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?

Wild At Heart by John Eldredge
Texas WINS the NIT!
Spoiler Alert: Josh is now losing all his brackets, and his WIFE is about to win
Fact: We as parents will make mistakes that will negatively affect our children.
Prepare our kids for the mistakes that we know will happen
Tell your children you are sorry, repair mistakes when they happen
Don't sweat the small stuff
Accept that your child is going to be who they are going to be no matter what you do (within reason)
