Marriage on Mission: Why Your Wife Won’t Follow a Man Without Purpose
Build the kind of marriage where your devotion runs deep, your trust is unshakable, and your love unleashes passion for eachother and fury against anyone that threatens it.

We all hope for that baton pass when discussing legacy and love, but this isn’t about them (read my article on that tragedy here) it’s about you, and your marriage.
Few men will ever know what it feels like to be adored by their wives.
Not loved or appreciated, but adored, cherished, borderline obsessed with…
Most men don’t have their woman head-to-toe, heart-to-bone, dialed-in to who they are and what they stand for. And it’s not because women are broken or selfish beings, it’s because most men have no idea how women actually work.
No boy thinks about his future wife as a nag, prude, or annoyance; he views her as beautiful, sexual, and 100% supportive. This is where the question arises, “Why don’t these boys build that type of marriage as men?”
The answer is, a woman doesn’t give herself fully to a man she can’t trust.
Too many men viewed their marriage as a finish line and not a starting point, so while she married him based on the potential she saw in him, he thought he “got the girl” so what’s the point in trying anymore?
That’s when the physique slips, the romance dies, the funny, attractive qualities disappear month by month, and, years later, both husband and wife are shells of who they were.
Men give up on life, and no woman can trust a man with no mission, backbone, or loyalty to the truth. You can be charming, funny, or even rich, but if you’re aimless, she’ll hold back, as she has to.
When a man stands on principle and lives his mission, her love ignites.
That’s when she pours herself out, mind, body, and spirit into his cup without hesitation. When that happens, you don’t just have a wife; you have a warrior who’ll move mountains for you, without being asked.
The strongest marriages are built on two people bound together by a mission bigger than themselves. The kind of marriage where if evil ever takes one down, the other rises and unleashes a fury that rattles the world.
That’s love.
That’s commitment.
