  • Good broadcast. Too wiling to blame men for everything that goes wrong in a marriage, family, etc.

    I am a Christian and a licensed counselor. I’ve reviewed the show in the past. The resources the show recommends are often very good and I frequently use them as references or resources for clients. Unfortunately, Garry Chapman has a strong tendency to blame men for everything that’s wrong in the marriage. This is misleading and erroneous.

Before the Wedding Bells: Essential Pre-Marital Tips for Couples
Q: What are some things you thought you knew about marriage?
Leann explains that many couples don't integrate faith into marriage early enough, and they learn through experience how central God should be to daily life, decisions, and conflict resolution. She emphasizes praying together, making Jesus a living part of the relationship, and preparing for difficult conversations with biblical perspective.
A Fresh Look at Faith and the Gospel with Bear Grylls

A Fresh Look at Faith and the Gospel with Bear Grylls
Q: What has given you the energy to share Christ with as many people as possible, beyond television and adventure?”,
Bear discusses how his day-to-day work is a platform, but his identity and purpose come from faith, which drives him to front-line faith sharing, including appearances in prisons and other challenging settings.
A Fresh Look at Faith and the Gospel with Bear Grylls
Q: Let me ask you this, the characters that you chose to write about, who are they and why did you choose their description, their relationship with Christ to write about?
Bear explains that he wrote The Greatest Story Ever Told from first-eye eyewitness accounts—Mary, Thomas, Peter, John, Mary Magdalene—because these perspectives reflect a broad spectrum of humanity and show why people from all walks of life are drawn to Jesus.
Learning to Delight in the Presence of Jesus
Q: What does it look like to engage in these spiritual disciplines in such a way that we are looking for Jesus in the practice of them?
It shifts from just doing the disciplines to nurturing a friendship with Jesus, searching for joy and real encounters with Him in those practices.
