• 07:07 - "What you and your wife do in your marriage is going to impact your kids to a third and fourth generation. So you're not just parenting your kids, you're actually parenting your unborn grandkids."
• 14:51 - "I'm practicing this whole idea that if I'm going to be a pleasure to be married to, is not doing things for her that I want to do, when I want to do them, it's doing things for her that she wants or needs. That's what it's all about. And since we're talking about marriage, the other thing, that's revolutionized my marriage is that knowing how I treat Brenda is a reflection of how I'm loving God."
