This episode really shows how much money cannot buy you love. A lot of us are looking for the husband that she had before.. A lot of us are sitting right now thinking.. well dang if I had a man to do those things I wouldn’t complain BUT she is sitting here letting us know that it’s not money or providing that makes a good husband… Nothing but GOD can make him good for his wife ❤

[@Raray200]

It is really about how they love. In the 5 love languages, her primary love language is quality time. His love language is gifts. Her love tank was empty, because he kept giving her stuff (money and cars) and she wanted him to get to know her. Spend time with her and he seemed to travel alot. There was a neglect of her love language. She wasn't fulfilled in her marriage. And she was exhausted. I hope they are working on how she needs to be loved.

1:42:55 I love that she said this. Something I learned from my Dad after my divorce. He asked me in the form of a question but I realized later it was his way of sharing wisdom…he asked me “What if marriage wasn’t so much about making you happy but about making you holy?” I didn’t have an answer. Now I know he didn’t mean holy in terms of perfection or even righteousness. But holy in terms of the likeness of God. “Be ye holy for I am holy” In marriage we have so many opportunities to learn what it means to love, sacrifice, and forgive. These characteristics make us more like Christ every time we get to express them. Hence making us more like our Heavenly Father…holy.

[@danij376]

I’ve listened to this 4 times. Soooo much resonates with me. I sent it to my husband and this is probably the first time he’s listened to any of these podcasts I’ve sent. Laterras…you are operating in your purpose!!! Your experiences were not in vain! They were for us ❤

It's crazy because after hearing this, a lot of women would still say he was a wonderful husband! We get so used to material things, and as long as we're being "kept" and he's not cheating, it's OK. This pleases me that she didn't ignore that she NEEDED more. It's also a blessing that his eyes were open to what she truly needed.

[@LindaJohnson-tt8fu]

And he’s not a good husband. So when I go back because they have children together, so I’m just don’t wanna be alone. And he may have change, but I don’t think so And I say that, because so many women forgive me and for cheating, but men really don’t forget women cheating And what she’s saying is true women are being taught if he halfway work I have a treat you nice marry him Because it’s 10 women to one man Bad, if I’ve been handed down from generation

[@truetwinflameandspirituala8211]

His eyes weren't open until he thought he lost her to someone else. Don't give credit where it isn't due.

[@heather7119]

Yes! This is proof that no case is too far gone if its Gods will. God can change a willing man's heart, a willing woman's heart. God has and is working on his heart, her heart. They are both being healed. Great testimony!

[@simonegilkes4993]

God restores. It was an honor to listen to their story. The part with their daughter really touched me. It is not over until God says so. The fact that they can laugh about their trials proves that God restores.

[@avisjohnson8448]

[@teneshareed5941]

She hit so many key 🔑 points. I hate that the only tool we use to try to get our partner to see or hear us is through another man. Because 9 times out of 10 we don't want to cheat. We are good with just our current partner and just want to be seen and heard

[@LaurenDenise]

It is beautiful to witness what God is doing through this podcast. "Fight hell for your marriage." Indeed. Rahsaan and Erica are showing us what it takes to get to that 40 year wedding anniversary: weather the storm, keeping Jesus at the center and DO THE WORK TO HEAL. May the Lord continue to bless their union and use their testimony to help other couples who are on the verge of giving up.🙏🏾

[@Pretti_Me]

Listen the transparency in this episode is priceless. Everything she experienced I experienced in my marriage. My husband put music before me and our family and I made the decision to divorce. I made the decision, which was so hard because I didn’t really want to, because he did not think counseling was necessary and I saw how he would bend/change for everyone but me. I so appreciate this conversation. It healed something in me today and confirmed my choice.

[@kimdavis3259]

I love the way her husband is tuned into her and what she’s saying. It’s like he never took his eyes 👀 off of her. For me that is so important when we actually just stop and listen to what our mates are saying. My EX would never give me this much attention. Whenever I would speak he would literally looked up at the ceiling as if he couldn’t wait until I was quiet. 😐 Thank God I’ve moved on and so much happier now! 😊

What I found absolutely special and God ordained about this entire thing is that at the Newbirth podcast event, people were lined up for questions and Laterras was trying to cut the event bc they were over the time limit and when he said "we're going to stop at- the last person will be" a lady interrupted him and called out who she thought he should stop at and he said "No. We're going to stop at the lady in the green." Which was this couple right here... So unless he had someone/producer/church worker directing him where to stop at- then that moment was really God ordained.

The other woman that thinks she can speak loosely about you because she had your man for a fleeting moment has nothing on you dear Erica. She speaks from a place of hurt, rejection and on top of all that ignorance. Don’t let her get to you. You spoke with wisdom. If she truly were the best ( in her own eyes mind you) she won’t be in an extra marital relationship, and number two she won’t feel the need to belittle the woman whose husband returned to her. That shows it was just a mere fling ! Hold your head up really high and know that you are called to be great in the Lord whom you serve. The bumps in the road don’t change that.

Freddy showed me the way, but it was me who did the feeling, me who allowed passion to claim my body like drowning; something I never admitted before. I was born for loving...I was meant for loving and Freddy never enjoyed all I had to give...Freddy was the man to make my love blossom, but he just never had the time. Instead of feeling sorry, I felt peaceful like I finally knew who I be. Freddy sacrificed more than he knew.

@@SkegeeAce Thank you for replying beautiful. I guess I can try again. I bought that derric jaxn game. and we briefly answered questions from it. He’s really a workaholic. Which leads me to believe at this point that is his focus because he doesn’t really know how to explore a woman for interest in her being. Her soul..the depth of creation… He’s so transfixed in pursuit of financial security. But I feel lonely and that I am not a priority. Why isn’t there a balance I wonder. You know people say, that ppl do what they want to do. ..😔

[@SkegeeAce]

@@JustBE_U You know, in his mind he probably thinks he's doing what's best for you both! I hope you to get a chance to bond and really explore how to meet each other's needs and he really gets a chance to see you, really see you! God bless you, sis!

[@nikie224]

I came straight from watching the panel episode to find this one and it truly blessed me. Thank you so much for the platform and for the transparency! God continue to bless and keep y'all!

[@nathifablanchfield8925]

This episode was so good, I thank this couple for their transparency . This podcast is life changing 🙌🏾👏🏾. During this episode when Latteras said most Men don’t get a chance to see the role model of a husband, I felt this in my soul…this discussion was so necessary and I thank God for this podcast is not only healing hearts but also teaching us all especially our men 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾. Thank you God for Laterras’ journey and obedience in listening to you and following your lead 🙏🏾❤️

[@Kristalwalker1972]

Your podcast has so many different people with different lives and testimonies. Every episode I watch, I’m blessed. I knew when they asked when they said your podcast saved their marriage that their story would be one to touch the heart. I’m waiting for my purpose partner and this show is preparation from so many different aspects. Thank you for having them as guests.

[@coverjayy]

This episode blessed me in so many ways! I can’t begin to list them all. Thank you to the lovely couple for their transparency. Laterras, thank you for your obedience and for this LIT platform.

[@tl6932]

This was great! Need a part 2 to hear... 1. What was revealed in her individual counseling? 2. What was revealed in their couples counseling? 3. What is the "real" story of how they met?

[@tasaril3387]

I'm excited you brought them on. I was waiting for this session.

[@brightmeadow1880]

Another life changing podcast! This couple represents our Heavenly Father’s redemptive LOVE! May God continue to be glorified in Your covenant of marriage! Thanks Griers for sharing! Thanks Laterras for a powerful podcast! I receive peace.

[@jessicawilson7494]

I loved this whole episode. The transparency was so real. The way they went through it and came back from it together. ❤

[@daunwright458]

Marriage is work and these two did the work. I wish for them continued blessings and overflow❤❤❤❤

[@shauna-gayescott4089]

This episode was so powerful!!! I can relate to Erica so much, I had a similar experience, but I am so happy that my husband and I went through that before we tied the knot. Listen when a woman's fed up!!! I tell you, only God can convince us to stay. Thank you for this! Greatly appreciated.

[@terimanning6237]

Yessss Bmore! I'm both amazed and elated that their able to laugh after all they've been through. My heart is so full. I'm sooo happy they've been able to shake back, bc alot of relationships/marriages don't. This podcast was so needed. I appreciate their honesty, transparency and how they've both advocated for both men and women. I see them moving into couples therapy and I'll be their first client...as soon as I find my potential husband!😂😂 Good luck guys, I'm rooting for you and Erica I'm coming to get my hair did!! Peace and blessings to you both 🙌🏽 🙏🏽 ❤. Just went and purchased the book, can't wait to read.

[@trinimom7686]

I have watched these podcast for strength, guidance, wisdom you name it. This episode was Great, I love the transparency the truth. Marriage is the commitment to work just as hard together. Thank you to the Griers!!

[@sherylwynn8007]

Each time I watch I get a fresh deposit toward my healing and preparation for my future husband. All God’s best to this couple. I love how God removed the scales and this man was able to see and hear things deeper and more clearly. ( his wife, the Word, and even the movie Fire Proof) God spoke to both of them and I am so glad they are sharing the testimony!! Thank you for being obedient and developing this podcast, multiplied blessings on you my brother ❤

[@elizabethashley8481]

The episode unpacked some much! They came through! I didn’t know what to expect but she gave so much lessons so much to learn. Thanks Erica for your faith❤

[@candiceJ78]

“I’m a ocean, I need you to explore me”. 🙌🏽

[@luvleta2759]

This was one of my favorite interviews. This could have been three hours long and I would have been glued to the screen. What a beautiful couple and testimony. I'm definitely purchasing the book. ❤️

[@mscstapleton]

This was a really powerful interview about the goods and bads of marriage. Shout out to yall for being so forthcoming!

[@Whoistiffanynicole]

Loved everything about this episode! And Laterras you really know how to guide a conversation…that really makes all the difference in how effective each podcast has the potential to be! Kudos 🙌🏽 keep it coming!!!

[@Ericalcarr]

I love the restoration being shared for others to see. The world need to see more of this.

[@meme30ism]

I love this podcast so much. This episode spoke to me more than any episode. Thank you for committing to have this couple on.

[@danagrappie4942]

I truly love this episode, it was a testament to the grace and endurance of love. It’s so easy to walk away and forget that marriage is a covenant not a convenience. The fact that there were so many different trials and yet they endure them all is exactly the meaning of loving one another as CHRIST loves us and gave HIS all for us. Regardless to how many times we fall short, CHRIST love endures. Thank you for being one of the few that didn’t throw in the towel and looked beyond the faults to a love that is reflective of its purpose. Your story will now encourage and inspire many others who was about to give up. Beautiful testimony!

[@shannonpennix591]

Oh wow the couple that asked the last question !!!! This is awesome !!! I watched that whole panel episode!!

[@MrsJoMac]

"It's okay to just stand and be silent and sometimes just wait so that God can give him what it is that he needs to hear. It doesn't have to come from you all of the time. Just work on you and trust in the Lord." Now that was a WORD!! When I heard Erica say that part at the end, I started to cry because God has been dealing with me about that in my own marriage. That's the part that is so hard to do. It's hard to not continuously try to express what I am feeling because I feel like my husband just doesn't understand. So I bring it up again and again because I think that maybe I didn't explain myself too well the first time. I'm learning to just be quiet and let God deal with my husband in His way and in His time. I have to focus on how I can be better and pray to not respond so quickly every time I disagree with things. So I trust God, and will continue to trust Him always. This couple's testimony is so beautiful, and I know that this video did not reach my feed by mistake. It was put here for my learning. Thank God for this video and for this beautiful testimony. I GIVE ALL THE GLORY TO GOD!!!

[@dsears774]

That spoke to me as well. Profound

[@heatherl7094]

This interview was INDEED a blessing, thank you so much for being transparent. DFW thank you for these episodes I am learning so much to prepare for my future husband. May God continue to guide you in restoring/saving marriages. The biggest takeaway for me was forgiveness and reconciliation.

[@roea7846]

This was a great interview. Thank you so much for this platform. You are helping so many people. May God continue to bless you.

[@eboniairwaves]

I love them so much. They seem so honest and so healed that they can look back at everything and talk about it and laugh. Might be my favorite episode❤

[@clatondramathis9962]

[@tinatenaansah3190]

Thank you for blessing me with encouragement about my season of restoration. God indeed is an on time, FAITHFUL, and loving Father! 🙌🏿

[@imanibrown2350]

It takes so much courage to get up here and tell your story !! In the back of my mind I’m like; “ooo ima reach out to tell my story too”. Lawdddd, the journey is wild 😭. I haven’t reached that level of confidence yet. I appreciate every guest !! Especially those who’ve had to confess their wrongs or struggle In integrity!! You have to be ready to face the mirror . Love y’all ❤️‍🔥

[@bu2erfly9]
