We love Jesus and believe in His goodness as reflected in His design for marriage. We also know that this world is hard, marriage can be hard, and let’s face it, each of us can be hard. Hopes for Marriage is committed to bringing free resources through weekly content to remind us of God’s truth, bring tools and ideas that will make a difference, and encouragement to stay the course. Oh, and also to have some (or a lot) of fun along the way! Why Hopes For Marriage: Because despite how it often feels, you are not alone - and we are not alone - in our desire to see God’s plan for marriage flourish. God called us into community for a purpose! Together we are far more resilient, able to withstand the storms of life, and far more effective in the call to reflect His love and grace to our spouse and one another. To stand together in all God has for us as husband and wife, that’s why there is always Hopes for Marriage!

Have you been the victim of THE Silent Treatment? It’s the insidious withholding of communication - words, attention, affection, and connection - that communicates so much. It’s a response that is demeaning, degrading, mean, and wrong..and yet so common and frequently used. It’s time to unpack and address this nefarious tool of destruction.
In this episode here’s some of what we talk about:
- Why the silent treatment is so dang triggering.
- The goal of silent treatment, and why it sometimes makes you feel crazy.
- We clarify the the difference between SILENCE as a response vs. silent treatment.
- We give the 4 steps of how to respond if you are the victim of silent treatment to break the cycle.
If you are the one employing silent treatment we discuss the serious nature of this bludgeoning coping tool, with an encouragement and reminder of Good News that roots you in the truth to break the destructive cycle and enter a new era of open and gracious communication.
