1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:05,160 S1: A love language minute. Here's Doctor Gary Chapman on communication 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:05,960 S1: and marriage. 3 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,680 S2: In first Corinthians chapter two, verse 11, Paul raises a 4 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:14,120 S2: question that every woman has asked, who knows what's going 5 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:19,840 S2: on in the mind of a man? Answer only the 6 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,640 S2: spirit of that man which is in him. I paraphrase 7 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:28,840 S2: that to say, only you know you. And if I 8 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,080 S2: am ever going to be intimate with my wife, I 9 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:36,520 S2: must choose to reveal to her something of what is 10 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,600 S2: going on inside of me, and she must choose to listen. 11 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,040 S2: And then she must reveal while I listen. And if 12 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,279 S2: we do, we can get close. And if we don't, 13 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,800 S2: we never will. You understand why? I would say communication 14 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,720 S2: is an absolute necessity. There's no way to have an 15 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,480 S2: intimate marriage without communication. 16 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,120 S1: For more answers, go to start marriage Right.com.
