YouTube Video—“My Response”
by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs
Author of award-winning Christian marriage manual Love & Respect, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs discusses the idea that he always wants to blame Sarah, his wife, for the things she does wrong. Watch and listen to what he has learned about how this type of response is a mistake—and how to respond correctly.
Bonus: The "Crazy Cycle"
In this video, Dr. Eggerichs explains his concept of the damaging “Crazy Cycle” from his Love & Respect Marriage Conference. Emerson and Sarah are convinced that a truth hidden in plain sight for 2000 years can make a difference in every marriage. This truth is found in
Ephesians 5:33.

Can Christian web logs harness the power of video so dominant in our post-modern media-driven culture? With your help, I hope to find out. During the entire month of August, I’ll be posting sounds and moving images here at Chrysalis. Learn more here.

Today, I’m asking for your feedback. Please rate this clip on a simple scale of 1-5. (5 being the highest.) At the end of the month, I'll post the results for the top three videos.

I'm going to give this one a 4/5. I think what he said is true, and it was very artfully and professionally done. I certainly had an easier time watching it than some of the junk that comes up on YouTube from someone's video phone. But! I didn't like the intro talk (or the one at the end either). I just wish it had gone strait to his lecture. I felt like I was being talked down to when he was explaining what he wanted to tell us about (and then re-explaining it at the end).
Great post. This book has helped a lot of people. I liked the video. My husband was standing near and listened to some of it. Hmmmmmm
Love visiting you. L&H, me
I like the idea presented in this one, but found it very repetitive. I give it a 2.
I love it love it love it. I give it a 5.
I like the repitition, because it helps the information to sink in.
The more you hear the words to a song, the more it gets in you and your know the words "by heart".
The more you listen to the word of God or recite the word of God, the more it gets in you and you know it "by heart".
That's what leads to a change in heart.
I change my rating,....
I give it a 5+!
Because I need changing myself!!!
I think I'll post it on my own blog.
Hi,
I saw you stopped in at Marriage Monday. Thought I would pop over and say "Hi."
Sending you a giant hug (((( ))))
I'll give it a 4. I agree that the information and his thoughts are definitely a 5, but some of the presentation was superfluous. Thanks for linking up! This is an important message!
Debd: Thanks for your well-articulated review. I agree with you on most of your points. :~)
Lynn Hi "me!" I hope your husband picked up Eggerich's catch phrase "my response is my responsibility." I believe this truth is equally applicable for wives too! Convicting... Hugs. :~)
Tami: I agree, the message was repetitive. However, sometimes I need to hear nuggets of truth over and over... :~)
I Boogie: I love your humility and enthusiasm! You've hit the nail on the head... the repetition helps the message to sink in. Feel free to enjoy this one on your own blog. :~)
Christine: Thanks for stopping by, and thanks for letting me link up to Marriage Monday. Next time, I'll post your button too. :~)
Personally, I would rate this as a 4.5. Eggerichs is so sincere, and it's nice to see his wife Sarah in the clip too. However, I think I would have preferred a seamless clip without the intro/conclusion.
Ditto what Christine said ... I have been to a Love and Respect Conference -- so not new info - but wanted to jump in on the rating while I had a minute.
Tara: Thanks for your vote. :~)
I have been busy this month but am back to watch your videos.
I would give this a 5 for showing that videos being used to teach can be effective today.
This video was something I would not choose to watch on my own but if I was taking a course I would rather like to watch it than to be presented with a book to read by the author I never read before.
The video successfully showed me the heart of the man and gave me a view of his style of teaching - in a nutshell. This video persuaded me that probably his books are just as good.
I liked the idea of pressure revealing what is already there! Stomp! Stomp!
Connie Marie: Pressure does have a way of revealing the true heart... oh boy, am I ever convicted.
Thanks for your thoughts. This man has an important message, and this clip is a nice taste of his books and seminars.
