Kim Wagner says a wife can confront a husband and still be respectful.

You are obeying God in bringing the confrontation and speaking truth to your husband,

in love, but then only the Holy Spirit can step into his heart and bring that conviction

and bring that change.

This is the Revive Our Hearts podcast for Thursday, July 24, 2014.

All through July, we're getting to know the authors in the True Woman line of books.

Nancy Lee DeMoss is here to introduce this week's True Woman author.

Over the past four days, Kim and Leroy Wagner have been showing us how a hurting couple can find true hope through Christ.

I'm moved by the huge response we've gotten to this story.

So many women have written to us saying, my situation is just like Kim's.

I've not been respecting my husband.

I'm asking the Lord to change my heart.

Many women have also written to tell us about their very difficult, messy situations,

asking for advice and for prayer. Today, Kim is going to respond to some of these real-world,

tough questions. I think you'll be encouraged as Kim points us to the Word of God and then draws

upon her own journey as well to help us know how to

apply God's truth to some of these difficult situations. Nancy, let's start with Pat. She wrote to Kim

change and I know I cannot do it

without the Lord. Help me, God. I know have affected my children that God has given me, and my heart is so

breaking. Here's Kim's encouragement to this listener and to anyone else crying out to God for their

marriage. Pat, when I hear you say, help, I feel like I'm drowning in my marriage with my spouse.
