Don't make a decision on whether or not we're going to stay in our marriage based on feelings.

Your feelings are valid and they have a time and a place.

But I don't make decisions on whether or not I'm going to leave this marriage because I'm in a covenant.

And I'm in a covenant before God.

Welcome to another digital, the Victor Mark show.

I have my special guest today, husband and wife, here to counsel, trying to help them work on their marriage.

And it's going to be okay. It is. I think y'all can make it. We can make it. It's been 30 years, so we're willing to put in. As long as you show me how to get them in a headlock. Oh. I think didn't show you? Well, we ran out of time. Okay. So if you can show me. Normally, she's the one that shows the husband control. I do the counter techniques. Okay, perfect. That are legal. You guys. Better legal. So I've got Javier and Shannon. Your last name is. Labrador. Labrador. I know, but I love the way you say it. Well, I mean, you go to the Labrador, but the Labrador is what, yeah. That's the way it should be. That's the Spanish way of saying it, yeah. So you guys, y'all been hanging out here at the training center. I know. You've been our, it's been pretty incredible. I love it. Okay, let's sneak peek into your life. And you walking out early in the morning. I'm like, yeah, put something on, man. Yeah, hey, man, whoa. Pull those up. Put that cup of coffee in the boots. Those Daisy Duke shorts are not working for you, Victor. Not working for you. But we got a few photos of it. But I'm hot.

No, you guys, you're here in Colorado Springs serving, and let me just put context.

These friends of ours, they sold their home, obey God, got a fifth wheel, and they travel the country ministering to people, doing boot camps for marriage and laying their life out.

Which is the one, because Eileen and I, we do, we have a marriage course online, and we've done plenty of marriage.

It's tough.

I mean, I'd rather fight ISIS.

And I told you that.

I'd rather be shot at by ISIS in Iraq, which I have,

then to be full time into the marriage realm.

Yeah.

Yeah. Right on their children, their children's children. So the attack is heavy. Yeah. And especially nowadays. I mean, look what we're seeing in our culture and our society. The attack against nuclear family, the attack against husband and wives, especially against men. Well, the attack against men. Right. The attack against men. And what you're seeing is this breakdown of men not leading in that role. So right now we're a pivotal time where if we want to see things shift and change. Yeah. Where does that start? Strong families, begin with strong marriages.
