Stand Shoulder to Shoulder

If you won’t defend your spouse in public, it doesn’t matter what you do in private.

In a world that’s doing everything it can to divide families, weaken men, and silence women, the most radical thing a husband and wife can do is stand shoulder to shoulder.

I’m not just talking about love in private.

I’m not just talking about whispering encouragement behind closed doors.

I’m talking about public unity, and being so locked in that the world knows you are untouchable because you always have each other’s backs.

Marriage Is More Than Romance

Romance is great and affection matters, but marriage is not just about roses and candlelight; it’s about building a fortress.

When I said “I do” to Jackie and her to me, we weren’t just agreeing to share a house and raise kids together…

We declared war on anything that tried to come between us: Slander, politics, gossip, money struggles, you name it. We had each other’s backs; there was no running to friends to gossip, complaining to Mom or Dad, and no chance in hell of allowing anyone to badmouth the other in front of us.

Too many couples treat marriage like a partnership of convenience, and that’s why they fold under pressure.

But if you treat the bond with your woman like a covenant of loyalty, nothing the world throws at you can break it.

Personal Loyalty

It starts in the home.

1. Wives, you should be your husband’s anchor and his fiercest believer.

2. Husbands, you should be your wife’s first line of defense and her greatest supporter.

The world doesn’t need to hear your complaints about each other.

You must keep that between you, deal with it privately, and become stronger.

When you walk into a room together, people should see unity so thick they know not to test it. They should literally feel your connection to one another, that’s so fucking strong, they just know, “Yeah, these two still go at eachother with passion like wild animals, and they’ll go after anyone who tries to harm the other like a feral beast.”
