When "experts" talk about common marriage killers--financial problems, conflict problems, intimacy problems--they often leave out one of the biggest spiritual ones: a controlling spirit. Lisa and I talk about how seeking to control your spouse or manipulate your spouse is the opposite of love and the opposite of how God treats and loves us. We discuss how controlling is a demonic strategy instead of a biblical one, how to recognize the subtleties of a controlling spirit, and then offer two necessary skills to grow closer together in the face of perceived wants (without exhibiting a controlling spirit).
