    Farewell to The Generous Husband

    On Sunday July 15, 2001, I did the first post for The Generous Husband. Today, some 8,000 posts later, I write this last one. It’s certainly bitter-sweet, but I’m not giving up blogging, so it’s okay. (If you want to follow the new blog it’s https://doingmarriagewell.com – and I start Saturday.) Doing this blog has […] The post Farewell to The Generous Husband first appeared on The Generous Husband.

  2. Redefining Sex So It's Easier And Better for Both of You

    Redefining Sex So It's Easier And Better for Both of You

    On Tuesday, I said your wife’s needs are valid, even though they’re different.  What about her sexual needs? Even if a woman is all about sex, it’s not as high on her list as is the case for most men. Usually, sex doesn’t make a woman feel loved. Rather, she wants sex because she feels […] The post Redefining Sex So It’s Easier And Better for Both of You first appeared on The Generous Husband.

    Different, Possibly Confusing, But Totally Valid

    Today, I want to impress on you that while your wife’s needs are different from your needs, they are just as valid. When I say needs, I mean what she needs from you to feel loved and cared for. You do want her to feel loved and cared for, don’t you? We tend to dismiss […] The post Different, Possibly Confusing, But Totally Valid first appeared on The Generous Husband.

    Embracing Gender Differences for a Better Marriage

    As this is my last week of posts on this blog, I want to hit a few important concepts before I move on. For the last nine years, most of my Monday posts have been simple, easy to do things to make your marriage better. Small things can make a real difference, and a steady […] The post The Lasting Impact of Small Acts of Love in Marriage first appeared on The Generous Husband.

  5. Navigating Sexual Boundaries with Love and Patience

    Navigating Sexual Boundaries with Love and Patience

    At the start of this year, I suggested that you Honour Your Wife by Letting Go of Sexual Preferences. I said if there were a couple of things you wanted that she keeps rejecting, you should stop asking for those. I proposed your wife is more important than those sex acts. Then someone asked, “What […] The post Navigating Sexual Boundaries with Love and Patience first appeared on The Generous Husband.

    FF: Applying the S-Curve Model to Strengthen Your Marriage

    Whitney Johnson, a Harvard Business Review blogger, has some interesting ideas I think apply to marriage nicely. In Throw Your Life a Curve Johnson talks about the S curve model for understanding how we learn new things. You start to do something new to improve some aspect of your marriage, or just to make your wife happier. This […] The post FF: Applying the S-Curve Model to Strengthen Your Marriage first appeared on The Generous Husband.

    Freedom in Marriage: God vs. What Others Think

    I trust God will understand. I’m not so sure about the neighbors. ~ Papa to Yentl It’s been over forty years since I saw the movie, but I still remember this line clearly. Yentl’s father teaches the Talmud to the boys in his small Polish town. At that time, Judaism forbade teaching the Talmud to […] The post Freedom in Marriage: God vs. What Others Think first appeared on The Generous Husband.

  8. The Root of All Marital Strife and the Path to Healing

    The Root of All Marital Strife and the Path to Healing

    I’ve come to the conclusion that there is one single cause for all divorces and unhappy marriages: We fail to do what we should because of selfishness. We do things we should not because of selfishness. We withhold grace and forgiveness because of selfishness. We may blame what we do wrong on our wife’s selfishness.
