Why Can’t My Husband Seem to Take Criticism Part 2

Last updated on: February 25, 2025 at 8:21 pm   By Shaunti Feldhahn

When it comes to how our men handle criticism and conflict, two big misunderstandings are often in play. Misunderstanding #1: Men are prideful and have a big ego, so they can’t stand to be questioned Misunderstanding #2: Men avoid issues by checking out Before you read any further, you’ll want to backtrack to my last post to see what drives these two really sensitive areas.

Why Can’t My Husband Seem to Take Criticism

Last updated on: February 17, 2025 at 10:05 pm   By Shaunti Feldhahn

Why does my husband seem so ‘fragile’?” The words hung there on the jumbo screens during a live, interactive segment of a marriage conference I led with Jeff last year.

Our nationally representative research for For Men Only revealed that your wife may have a deep, underlying insecurity about whether you really love her. Even the most confident and competent woman may secretly (and subconsciously) wonder if she’s even lovable in the first place.   Read more

Lessons from the LA Fires on Persevering through Pain

Last updated on: January 21, 2025 at 12:59 pm   By Shaunti Feldhahn

Like many of you, I have loved ones who are deeply impacted by the Los Angeles fires and the ongoing aftermath. Some close friends live just blocks from the Eaton Fire flashpoint and 90% of their Altadena neighborhood is gone. As of this writing, their house is still there … and so they and their kids are still there, with no water or electrical service, trying to protect their home from constant wind-borne embers, flaring hot spots, and roving looters. Read more

A Christmas Prayer for You

Last updated on: December 19, 2024 at 12:26 am   By Shaunti Feldhahn

Merry Christmas, friends and ministry supporters! I am thrilled this week to introduce you to my Blog Coordinator Kristy Floyd. She works so faithfully behind the scenes, mapping out the blog posts we bring to you regularly. Out of her own time in Luke Chapter 2, she was moved to write a prayer for us, and I can’t think of a better way to usher out 2024 than to usher us into God’s presence. Feel free to say this prayer out loud and make it your own. May this season be a beautiful one for all of you. - Shaunti Read more
