Lesson 1: The Source of Marital Conflict
In this foundational lesson, Craig Hill shares the powerful story of his own 7-year journey through marital strife and breakthrough. You’ll learn how most conflicts begin on the surface but are fueled by a deeper emotional disconnect. Discover the “arms dealer” behind your arguments, why one spouse often feels devalued while the other feels falsely accused, and the two crucial levels of communication. With vivid examples, you will recognize patterns in your own relationship and understand why your efforts to communicate often backfire. This lesson sets the stage for a transformational shift by revealing five essential steps to move your marriage from tension to connection.
Lesson 2: Resolving Conflict from a Husband’s Perspective
Empathy is the game-changer. In this lesson, Craig Hill equips husbands with insight and practical strategies to restore peace and trust in their marriages. You will discover how empathy—not explanation or defense—is the key to resolving conflict. Learn how to identify and answer the question your wife is really asking: “Do you love me?” Through powerful real-life examples and biblical strategies modeled by Jesus, you’ll learn how to stop arguments in their tracks and restore emotional safety. By mastering five empathy-based tools, husbands can move conversations from surface-level arguments to heart-level connection.

Lesson 3: The Human Fuel Tank from a Husband’s Perspective
Every wife has an invisible fuel tank that runs on love, not logic. In this eye-opening lesson, you will explore the unique ways women interpret love—feeling like a top priority, being listened to, and having their pain acknowledged. Craig Hill shows how common responses like justifying or defending yourself only deplete your wife’s value tank. Instead, you’ll learn how to consistently answer her three emotional questions and fill her tank through five empathy-driven strategies. When you apply these steps, you won’t just resolve conflict—you will create a safe, loving environment that strengthens the heart of your marriage.

Lesson 4: Understanding the Human Fuel Tank from a Wife’s Perspective
Respect is the fuel that drives a husband’s heart. In this lesson, wives will gain insight into what respect truly means to most men: being accepted as he is, admired for his strengths, and appreciated for his efforts. Craig Hill unpacks the cycle that drains a man’s emotional tank and reveals how certain behaviors—even well-intentioned ones—can lead to deep disconnection. You will learn how to shift from criticism and comparison to honor and intercession, and discover how Ephesians 5:33 becomes a life-giving roadmap for every wife who desires a stronger, more united marriage.

Wives, you have incredible power to bring quick resolution to even the most heated arguments—and it starts by shifting your approach. In this practical lesson, Craig Hill outlines five simple yet profound strategies that help you meet your husband’s need for respect, even in moments of conflict. You will discover how to move the conversation to a deeper level by asking two key questions, take responsibility for any disrespect communicated, and offer sincere appreciation. These steps don’t just answer his unspoken questions—they rebuild connection, foster peace, and demonstrate the respect that restores.
Lesson 6: Why Is It So Hard to Ask Forgiveness
If you’ve ever struggled to apologize or felt like your efforts only made things worse, this lesson will unlock why. Craig Hill reveals the inner “lawyer” that rises up during conflict and keeps us stuck in blame and self-justification. You will learn how to stop building your case and start building a bridge by understanding the three questions every wounded heart needs answered before true forgiveness can occur. Through biblical insight and practical wisdom, you’ll discover the attitudes that make an apology powerful and the keys to genuine, healing reconciliation.

Not all apologies bring healing. In this powerful lesson, Craig Hill introduces six transformational steps, adapted from Ford Taylor's leadership model, that unlock the door to real forgiveness. You’ll learn how to acknowledge the pain you’ve caused, express genuine empathy, and take full responsibility—even if you weren't “wrong” on the surface. By mastering these six steps, you’ll stop repeating the same mistakes and start creating a culture of humility, accountability, and love in your marriage. These are the words that work—and they can heal even the deepest wounds.
Lesson 8: Take a Daily Marriage Environmental Impact Survey
Want a stronger marriage? Make daily check-ins a habit. In this lesson, Craig Hill introduces the Marriage Environmental Impact Survey—a powerful tool to assess how your actions are affecting your spouse’s emotional tank. Learn how husbands and wives can ask insightful, compassionate questions that reveal hurts, uncover unmet needs, and lead to daily repentance, empathy, and healing. You’ll also be introduced to the Six-Minute Prayer, a daily rhythm of repentance, gratitude, and blessing that can shift the entire atmosphere of your home.
Lesson 9: Building a Relational Marriage Covenant for the Future
A strong marriage needs more than love—it needs a covenant.

Using biblical principles and practical frameworks, Craig Hill guides you through a process of setting shared values, confronting in love, and walking in humility, empathy, and truth.
