The Search for a Godly Spouse

Oh my goodness! It's been a long time since I've blogged! WOW! :)

Well, the past two mornings I listened to a radio broadcast called The Search for a Godly Spouse. It's really entertaining to listen to because the speaker is Irish. :) The gist of the talk is pretty much summed up into the title-- The Search for a Godly Spouse (That's the 3rd time I've typed that...I should stop...lol). :)

The speaker, Alistair Begg, gave the 6 most important qualities to look for in a future spouse and he divided them up for both male and female. I thought it was really interesting...take a look. :)

Women: The man you someday marry should…

• Be continually growing closer to Jesus Christ
• Demonstrate integrity
• Be a bold leader
• Love sacrificially
• Laugh heartily, especially at himself
• Model genuine humility

Men: The woman you someday marry should…

• Have a personal faith in Jesus Christ
• Possess inner beauty, not just outer
• Be an initiative taker and have an attitude of submission
• Be a wife who will help build her husband's confidence
• Display kindness
• Have a sense of humor

There were some other really valuable points that he mentioned. I would strongly encourage you to listen to these broadcasts. They aren't very long and they're pretty entertaining!! :) Here's the link: http://listen.family.org/daily/A000001775.cfm
They were aired on 2/9 and 2/10.

ENJOY!
