This is so real. My husband starts his day praying over our family on my side of the bed every morning out loud. It’s so comforting to know we are covered for the day. All I told him before he started this was we should pray together more as a couple. So now our devotional time is at 5:00 am. It makes a difference and our home feels very peaceful.
Sometimes “keeping score” can be a manifestation of being unappreciated or under appreciated (a “quiet” abuse of familiarity & being taken for granted or having your concerns dismissed or “forgotten”… “again”). In times like these “keeping score” is also an outcome of feeling unheard. Ultimately, “keeping score” is unhealthy & ineffective, though is often a telltale sign of feeling “cheated” & unappreciated.
@lisas3825 Thanks... You've perfectly explained something I was trying to figure out which is why I've keeping score lately when I know I didn't used to keep score.
@@tametra_lasha ♥️Yes. I’ve learned that behavior is a language. Compassionately, we do best to learn the messages of our own “bad” behavior. Especially when it takes us by surprise. I am praying the strength of your joy, courage & wisdom. Thank you for sharing back with me.
This episode was powerful.....you know it's a Godsend when you are on for almost 4 hours, and it doesn't even feel like it. This couple must be pillars on the show they are a rich well of wisdom, we struck Gold with this couple....wow!!!! Thank you, HI
@JamesEdwardsMMC Pastor James and First Lady James, please, please, please write a book on your core values. This was so powerful. I wish I had this information prior to getting married. Now three years separated. I would've have never married my husband.
I am finally in a healthy relationship and got married, we got married four years ago and this is the longest relationship I have ever been in. Keep up the good work guys, I enjoy your podcast and your guest speakers. I am learning alot. ❤
Ok, our beautiful queen said it very well, "yes, I refuse to settle, because where you are, is NOT WHERE WE ARE STAYING"!!!! Yes, it's about GROWTH!!! ❤
I definitely believe in gender roles and I totally agree with women wanting to submit to a man who is willing to sacrifice. I am also a woman who prides herself in being self sufficient but I certainly don't want to continue bearing it all.
If you haven't already, you will find your life partner. Your husband. A man that loves you & respects you that loves the Lord with all his heart, soul, strength.
31:26 “Create core values from the start for any commitment, covenant, or business. It’s your North Star in making decisions and the tone set to how you’ll operate.” 🔥 1:47:58 That’s all it takes to squash a fight. Acknowledgment. Going towards repair, rather than holding onto winning. 2:13:04 Focus on self and personal growth and what we’re being taught first. 2:23:06 then become eachother, build eachother and bring the best out of eachother. 2:24:33 Marriage is for the mature, and noticing your partner consistently.” 2:25:29 prayer 2:32:20 A woman that knows a man is sacrificing for her, will submit to him gladly. 3:07:56 “allot of people focus on healing but many people don’t focus on growing. Growing is replacing and restoring.” Healing is getting back to baseline. 3:13:28 Create your own core values first. Then Sit down with your partner and business partner.
The Seven Core Values 1. God is first. We put each other first. 2. If it matters to you, it matters to me. 3. Physical and verbal abuse, neglect, and rejection are cancers to our relationship. 4. We say " I love you" every day, and never sleep in separate beds dut to anger. 5. We don't keep score. 6. His assignment is sacrifice, hers is submission. 7. In all areas of life, growth is the goal.
The wife is like me. I have been through a similar thing being convicted by God. She's definitely speaking to many of us women. You can tell they both are being led by the Holy Spirit. Everyone needs to hear his podcast from 2 weeks ago about soulties. Awesome couple!
I rarely ever comment but this by far is my favorite episode. God bless you Pastor James and Tiffany🙏🏾 I pray he will continue to strengthen your union. I pray he will bless you both with wisdom and the boldness to continue to stand on his word.
I am dating a nan who I have known for 20 years. Everything you all are talking about resonates with me because I believe this relationship is in the right path. Both of us go hard for each other and it feels so refreshing.
I was a believer when I got married in 2015. I’ve been a non believer for 4 years. Life is what it is. My husband is still a believer; I don’t try to change his mind and he don’t try to change mine. We get along; we take care of each other and that’s just what it is 🤷🏾♀️
I have been healing for the last 7 years after enduring repeated infidelity and emotional abuse from my marriage. I feel tremendous joy from your instruction on healing, wholeness, and growing. It's time for me to let the hurt go. I am so glad I stumbled up on you guys. I pray God's covering over your marriage and ministry. Thank you.
This Episode is really challenging me to internally ask some Empowering questions. That’s I never thought about to consider for myself. These two are influencing me “Up” pastor James and Wifey is “Calling me Up!”
Great presentation! I have noticed repeatedly that every time I witness a couple that is truly united as one flesh, with our Most HIgh, the woman and man (husband and wife) always listen and look at one another with such intense respect! This is the attunement of the blending of the souls between two who are blessed!
I really appreciate this conversation. The biggest takeaway for me is that in marriage, the two become one-what is important to one should be important to the other. Thank God that there are still positive examples of marriage.
This is the best episode of HI I have ever seen and I’m only 111 minutes in. This is the most competent and knowledgeable marriage worthy of spreading biblical/relationship principles to the marriage. The only couple that I would want to mirror my marriage after.
Amazing episode! I've not heard or followed this couple before, but I so appreciate such solid wisdom. Lady Tiffany is full of wisdom and so is her husband. Thanks again for this episode❗
THIS EPISODE IS A WORD 📣📢📣📢📣 So many gems in this episode!!! Thank you for opening and sharing your testimonies, your wisdom and constantly bringing it back to GOD ❤
Staying single as women till you know that man’s going to Sacrifice and you as a man till you recognize she’s the one willing to Submit to you, is possibly why only courtship than marriage is in the spirit and not being a girlfriend. The only title to be accepted is Wife and Husband there’s no in between.
Wow...yall love story just totally changed the entire atmosphere for me! I recently met a went out with a guy who shared with me the years he's been in prison. Hes been released from prison going on 3 years and I was undecisive about seeing him again after he told me but his spirit is so genuine, his vide makes me feel safe and free but I was skeptical of how my kids would feel about this as well. Met him thru mutual friends party and they all say he's changed his life and a good guy, adter hearing your story, i think I'll go out with him again and not be judgemental. Thank you for sharing your story!
I love them so much!! 😍 I just seen/heard of them them for the first time on the show. First seen Pastor Tiffaney on a reel they’ve blessed me so much. If you are in Houston or the surrounding area please go visit TFCC. I went to visit today drove over an hour from The Woodlands TX. Was there from about 8:45am for Grace and Truth then service at 11am and it was worth every minute. The anointed of God is on them and all through the church 🙏🏾🙌🏾 I went in carrying such heavy burden of rejection, hurt , grief and Lord knows what else and people have came along side me praying for me speaking life and encouragement in me. That burden and yoke was lifted. ❤
Thank you to the Pastor and his wife for being so transparent and intentional. The teaching is solid and very easy to incorporate into your life. It’s simple, just decide to trust! Loved when he said that to his wife.
Hardly Initiated. This was so good and encouraged me deeply! Great job on this podcast! I watched the entire 3 hour video. Let me tell you this was probably the best marriage and relationship advice I've ever seen! Great job to the pastor and his wife! I'm divorced, but i still believe in love and marriage. I, too, went through what the pastor's wife went though, but i still believe God! I have core values for myself as a single for over 20 years and and we, me and my future spouse who i have not met yet, will create core values in our next marriage. Last comment, "change worlds, that part! And do not fo life without God. Powerful!!!! I hope the Pastor and his wife come to the First Baptist Church of Glenarden, Md to speak.
Thank you so much for bringing them bck! You guys actually helped me find a new church home in Houston!!!! Its been a few years, so this blessed me in several ways. I love their church ❤️
I want to thank you all for addressing the challenging topics. I have my notepad in front of me and taking notes. I’m going to be prepared for my husband when God sends him.
I can't hit the like button enough to express how much I'm enjoying and appreciate this episode and guests. Thank you Ty and Ryan. Keep the great job up, we are learning and growing. Blessings from the little Caribbean island St. Martin /St. Maarten ❤
I watched this video over a couple days , because I’m busy? Yes, but most importantly because I assimilate information SLOWLY. This is such a great video I have shared it with my friends who are married , divorced, and looking forward to marriage . My first attempt at marriage failed miserably , and so I need all the help I can get as I look forward to new and better things, and to a great future with a good man. Thank you all for sharing this podcast and this video with us. It is such a blessing. ❤
I’m listening to this and simply want to cry. I love these two! I just had a conversation with someone about how important core values are to me. This episode came as a God send. This is the best Podcast on the web! This episode is powerful and priceless!!!
This episode really spoke to me. As a single woman still getting over a traumatic r’ship, I now understand that I’m nowhere near, nor have I EVER been mature enough to HEAL to the point where I can even phantom being able to open myself up to another person like the pastor & his wife. This is definitely a useful episode. I got work to do!!
I legit loveeee this podcast this is anothe powerful hit!!!!!!!!!! I'M SO THANKFUL YA'LL HAVE THIS PLATFORM FOR THE REAL CONVERSATION 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 God wants us healed before making the right connections 💯
It was difficult for me to submit to God, but as she said when I did it was freeing, and now I would have no problem submitting to a husband that is submitted to Christ...🥰
This couple is truly amazing. I’m tearing up because this message is full of gems. This message is truly led by the Holy Spirit. Such a beautiful couple. Thank you God for blessing us with them. Ty & Ryan many blessings to you both & your platform. The two of you are really blessing others with the guest you bring in front of us. ❤🙏🏾
I have so much RESPECT for this couple!!! I love and appreciate how they both allow God to use them! Blessings to them and the Hardly Intimidated platform!!
The difference between a partnership and a covenant. Faithfulness is already who you are. It’s Someone who just wants a marriage, vs someone who actually wants to embody being a spouse.
This episode was to good!! These core values are on point!! I’ve been divorced for a year now. That situation taught me so much about myself. I’m currently healing and growing!! Thank y’all for sharing!! Blessings Abound to you both!! I still believe marriage is a beautiful thing!! I’ll wait on him!!
I’m writing another comment but I am 33 and while im navigating this journey of life I’m still trying to figure out how to be in this world healed and walking my purpose but also being the best virgin of myself. hearing her speak is truly helping me piece something’s together that I never understood. This is the guidance I’ve always needed… Thank you for sharing your story you are truly powerful & the light of your loved ones shines through you as well truly a inspiration once again 🙏🏾
Pastor James and Tiffany thank you for allowing GOD to lead you both and for you both coming on the show to be a Blessing to us all.I will say people half to be mindful of judging the book by it’s cover because had GOD not taken pastor James through what he went through he wouldn’t be in his walk today.Thank you Tiffany for hearing from GOD and allowing him to send you your boas it’s beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
*The 7 Core Values (shared by Pastor James and Tiffaney Edwards):* 00:00 ~ Session starts Core Values explained ~ 04:40 *1). God is first, and we put each other first.* (00:33:00, 00:34:30) *2). If it matters to her, it has to matter to you; if it matters to him, it has to matter to you.* (1:11:20) *3). Physical abuse, verbal abuse, mental abuse, rejection and neglect are cancers to our covenant. Certain things we don't say, certain things we just don't do.* (01:21:50) *4), Tell each other that you love each other every day and never sleep apart because of anger.* (01:41:56) *5). Don't keep score.* (02:04:30) *6). The husband's role is sacrifice; the wife's role is submission.* (02:31:23) *7). In every area of our life, growth is the goal.* (03:13:00) *This was soooo packed with wisdom and maturity ~ loved this!* 💚💖💚 *Thank you, Hardly Initiated, and Pastor James and Tiffaney Edwards! Can't wait to read your "7 Core Values to a Great Relationship" book!*
Amen!! This conversation was so incredible! I've never listen to this podcast before and it's no accident it came up on my RUclips when it did. Words can't even express the blessings in this! GOD bless you all! I'm at 3:12 and could listen for 3 more hours! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼♥️♥️
This is probably my favorite episode. This literally brought me to tears as I thought about my current relationship. First Lady made some great points that brought back to my remembrance what God told me about 2 years ago. Now I've got to remove some people to make room for growth 💯💪🏾❤️
Love that from Tiffany. I was there when I realised the level of my healing after my divorce when I was ready to be opened to be loved again and to trust again. Im growing now, I have moved on from healing. 'I remember what happened and forgot what if felt like.' love that. Thank you pastor James and Tiffany. We love you and we thank you. Thank you HI for hosting them.
I'm so seriously glad they stated this isn't for the marriages that include emotional, verbal, & physical abuse, etc. Especially as it pertains to NOT EVER saying the "D-Word." #️⃣INSTANTGROUNDSFORDIVORCE
That Part! You two are definitely anointed for this space. God first. For every married couple, God has given each spouse the Grace to extend to their spouse. When people outside of your marriage try to intervene, they are interfering with God’s principles, let no man put this covenant asunder. God has Graced each spouse to be able to go through the good, bad and the ugly.
This was sooo good! I definitely didn’t want it to end! Thank you for the transparency and time to pour into us all on having core values and raising our moral standards God bless y’all
The POWER of God has resident with this couple‼️‼️‼️GLORY! I pray this episode goes viral‼️ The most godly and wise conversation EVER! Thank You to this couple.
I have watched this episode twice and will watch it again... so many gems. Beautiful couple and I can fewl the respect and love they have for each other.. love love love this one ❤❤
When you become one, that is absolutely correct Pastor Edwards. No devil in hell can defeat the two of you. That’s the POWER A MARRIED COUPLE BESTOWS. That’s why Marriage is so important.
The living waters are flowing through this marriage because God is first. Look at the organic chemistry and bold conviction, The Love is felt thoroughly! Also I always respect when shows take a poll and allow the audience to interact, and remember in most domestic violence situations the person being abused wouldn’t speak out against the abuser to ensure not agitate their own situation! People’s lives are on the line BELIEVE ME. Y’all show is phenomenal, stay Blessed.
Wow great insight and revelation on how keep a marriage going. I'm been married 12 years it haven't been easy . This is encouraging me keep going strong in my marriage. I hope the same for others 🙏
I've been in my office watching the playback wanting to church dance the whole episode!!!!! So many gems and nuggets were dropped. Thanks for returning Pastor with your lovely wife.
👉DATING CARDS: hi.hardlyinitiated.com/datingcards
Y’all thisss: “If you go into a relationship not knowing who you are-you are not a blessing, you are a burden to your s/o”
This is so real. My husband starts his day praying over our family on my side of the bed every morning out loud. It’s so comforting to know we are covered for the day. All I told him before he started this was we should pray together more as a couple. So now our devotional time is at 5:00 am. It makes a difference and our home feels very peaceful.
Bless you and your family
This is s awesome and beautiful!
I LOVEEEE THIS SO BEAUTIFUL TO GOD BE THE GLORY GOD BLESS YALL BEAUTIFUL FAMILY
That is amazing! May God continue to Bless you and your family.❤
❤
I never want my husband to feel more validated by someone else more than me.❤❤
I love how they articulated every single thing‼️ They are anointed and appointed for such a time as this!
Bringing the truth
Well said!!
It’s soo refreshing how they speak the same language.
@@SpindarellaMotloung yes!
Sometimes “keeping score” can be a manifestation of being unappreciated or under appreciated (a “quiet” abuse of familiarity & being taken for granted or having your concerns dismissed or “forgotten”… “again”). In times like these “keeping score” is also an outcome of feeling unheard. Ultimately, “keeping score” is unhealthy & ineffective, though is often a telltale sign of feeling “cheated” & unappreciated.
Very good comment ❤
@@hurtingfeelingsdaily thank you truly 💖
@lisas3825 Thanks... You've perfectly explained something I was trying to figure out which is why I've keeping score lately when I know I didn't used to keep score.
@@tametra_lasha ♥️Yes. I’ve learned that behavior is a language. Compassionately, we do best to learn the messages of our own “bad” behavior. Especially when it takes us by surprise. I am praying the strength of your joy, courage & wisdom.
Thank you for sharing back with me.
Love It
This episode was powerful.....you know it's a Godsend when you are on for almost 4 hours, and it doesn't even feel like it. This couple must be pillars on the show they are a rich well of wisdom, we struck Gold with this couple....wow!!!! Thank you, HI
My People! Thank you all for your support!

Our Pastor is back with his beautiful wife, love it! Thanks for the back to back wisdom😊

It is truly a blessing to have black men dialogue with guests that provide such insightful information to assist in personal growth!

I’m a Christian. I love God. I tried my own way and following Christ is better.
I'm a God-fearing, bible believing, Christian! Perfectly imperfect and saved by grace and the blood of Jesus! 🙏🏽🙌🏽❣
I love this episode, and how they both hold God at the head of their lives and relationship.👍

If it matters to you, it matters to me ❤❤. You can tell somebody you love them but until it becomes a verb…..it is just a word. She dropped the 🎙️
The greatest message you will ever preach is your life style. Allow them to see your consistent decision making 🎯
THIS EPISODE IS A WORD 📣📢📣📢📣
So many gems in this episode!!! Thank you for opening and sharing your testimonies, your wisdom and constantly bringing it back to GOD ❤
You ARE MAKING SENSE IN EVERY AREA.....
I believe in Gender Roles and I want them to allow this to just flow in our marriage. If something needs to be done and you saw it first Just Do It...
I love that this couple shares real life examples of each core value. 😊. That’s my fav part of the show. ❤
I really value the balance in conversation and interaction between this couple.

Create in me a clean heart and renew the right spirit that’s within me ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow, so many gems 💎. My favorite example 1:48:50 when he allowed God to be Lord in the situation the day they were upset with each other.
Hardly Initiated. This was so good and encouraged me deeply! Great job on this podcast! I watched the entire 3 hour video. Let me tell you this was probably the best marriage and relationship advice I've ever seen! Great job to the pastor and his wife! I'm divorced, but i still believe in love and marriage. I, too, went through what the pastor's wife went though, but i still believe God! I have core values for myself as a single for over 20 years and and we, me and my future spouse who i have not met yet, will create core values in our next marriage.

THE POWER IS IN ONENESS ♾️ 🤍
Thank you so much for bringing them bck! You guys actually helped me find a new church home in Houston!!!! Its been a few years, so this blessed me in several ways. I love their church ❤️
Having gratitude, thankfulness, appreciation for, and honoring the other person for who they are and what they do goes a very long way.
2:50 was gem. They act like they won’t submit until you get to the right man that allows you to submit
THIS WAS EXCELLENT. WHAT A BLESSING!!!!
These are some of the best core values.May God continue to bless your marriage.
I want to thank you all for addressing the challenging topics. I have my notepad in front of me and taking notes. I’m going to be prepared for my husband when God sends him.

I legit loveeee this podcast this is anothe powerful hit!!!!!!!!!! I'M SO THANKFUL YA'LL HAVE THIS PLATFORM FOR THE REAL CONVERSATION 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 God wants us healed before making the right connections 💯

The difference between a partnership and a covenant. Faithfulness is already who you are.
It’s Someone who just wants a marriage, vs someone who actually wants to embody being a spouse.

I’m writing another comment but I am 33 and while im navigating this journey of life I’m still trying to figure out how to be in this world healed and walking my purpose but also being the best virgin of myself. hearing her speak is truly helping me piece something’s together that I never understood. This is the guidance I’ve always needed… Thank you for sharing your story you are truly powerful & the light of your loved ones shines through you as well truly a inspiration once again 🙏🏾
Pastor James and Tiffany thank you for allowing GOD to lead you both and for you both coming on the show to be a Blessing to us all.I will say people half to be mindful of judging the book by it’s cover because had GOD not taken pastor James through what he went through he wouldn’t be in his walk today.Thank you Tiffany for hearing from GOD and allowing him to send you your boas it’s beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.

Core Values explained ~ 04:40
*1). God is first, and we put each other first.* (00:33:00, 00:34:30)
*2). If it matters to her, it has to matter to you; if it matters to him, it has to matter to you.* (1:11:20)

*This was soooo packed with wisdom and maturity ~ loved this!* 💚💖💚 *Thank you, Hardly Initiated, and Pastor James and Tiffaney Edwards! Can't wait to read your "7 Core Values to a Great Relationship" book!*
Amen!! This conversation was so incredible! I've never listen to this podcast before and it's no accident it came up on my RUclips when it did. Words can't even express the blessings in this! GOD bless you all! I'm at 3:12 and could listen for 3 more hours! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼♥️♥️
Yes. To the belief of gender roles. It’s not necessarily required but considered.
I definitely believe in SUBMISSION
I truly enjoyed this growth session. The information was extremely valuable, which will allow me to continue to rise and walk in my greatness.🥳
This is probably my favorite episode. This literally brought me to tears as I thought about my current relationship. First Lady made some great points that brought back to my remembrance what God told me about 2 years ago. Now I've got to remove some people to make room for growth 💯💪🏾❤️
Love that from Tiffany.
I was there when I realised the level of my healing after my divorce when I was ready to be opened to be loved again and to trust again. Im growing now, I have moved on from healing. 'I remember what happened and forgot what if felt like.' love that. Thank you pastor James and Tiffany. We love you and we thank you. Thank you HI for hosting them.
I'm so seriously glad they stated this isn't for the marriages that include emotional, verbal, & physical abuse, etc. Especially as it pertains to NOT EVER saying the "D-Word." #️⃣INSTANTGROUNDSFORDIVORCE
listening alll the way from kenya............ taking notes........ rewinding fowarding to make sure i miss nothing.......3yrs of marriage
I will definitely apply these 7 core values in my marriage. This episode has been such a Blessing!!! 🙌🏽 💓 💖
Every man and woman who’s going through relationship challenges should listen to this couple. Amazing wisdom they both spill in this episode 🎉❤❤
This information is gold. I appreciate the couple and, their energy is amazing.
Awesome dialogue ❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾Knowing your core values and keeping God first!!
That Part! You two are definitely anointed for this space. God first. For every married couple, God has given each spouse the Grace to extend to their spouse. When people outside of your marriage try to intervene, they are interfering with God’s principles, let no man put this covenant asunder. God has Graced each spouse to be able to go through the good, bad and the ugly.
❤❤ I appreciate this I'm still learning and I'm definitely sharing with my grown adult children how amazing God bless the both of you
This was sooo good! I definitely didn’t want it to end! Thank you for the transparency and time to pour into us all on having core values and raising our moral standards God bless y’all
The POWER of God has resident with this couple‼️‼️‼️GLORY! I pray this episode goes viral‼️ The most godly and wise conversation EVER!
Thank You to this couple.
The power of covenant and core values ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have watched this episode twice and will watch it again... so many gems. Beautiful couple and I can fewl the respect and love they have for each other.. love love love this one ❤❤
When you become one, that is absolutely correct Pastor Edwards. No devil in hell can defeat the two of you. That’s the POWER A MARRIED COUPLE BESTOWS. That’s why Marriage is so important.
What a QUEEN and KING! You did good pastor!❤
The living waters are flowing through this marriage because God is first. Look at the organic chemistry and bold conviction, The Love is felt thoroughly! Also I always respect when shows take a poll and allow the audience to interact, and remember in most domestic violence situations the person being abused wouldn’t speak out against the abuser to ensure not agitate their own situation! People’s lives are on the line BELIEVE ME.
Y’all show is phenomenal, stay Blessed.
Wow great insight and revelation on how keep a marriage going. I'm been married 12 years it haven't been easy . This is encouraging me keep going strong in my marriage. I hope the same for others 🙏
