Return to Eden

Speaker
Andrey and Elena Polishchuk

«We thought everything would be easy now, but it only got harder». Sound familiar? Understanding the psychology of men and women is only a map. But on this map you still have to walk through the minefields of crises: the first year, the birth of children, the eighth-year routine and the «empty nest».

Pastors Andrey and Elena Polishchuk speak openly about why in marriage we start hiding, like Adam and Eve. Why men retreat into the «nothing box», and women build walls of resentment? And most importantly — how to return to the state of Eden, where two are «naked and unashamed».

Key thoughts: «A crisis is the moment when you saw each other without 'leaves'. Imperfect and real». «A man is programmed to be strong. And a crisis is the moment when he feels weak. That's why he hides». «Every word of a wife is either a crown on her husband's head, or rot in his bones. Every day you choose what to put on him». «A man's true strength is not playing the iron man, but in honesty: 'It's hard for me, I need your support'». «Don't turn into 'another woman'. Be the one he fell in love with — not by looks, but by spirit. A wife's smile is fuel for her husband».
