Emerson & Sarah Eggerichs on Marriage, Parenting, Family of Origin, Work & Death

WHAT?! You haven’t met my parents?! A few things to note: Emerson and Sarah only wear black, they’ve been married 40+ years, and when they met, my mother thought my dad was funny looking, dressed weird and wasn’t funny at all. Oh, and they started Love and Respect.

Hear more of that plus the reason they work hard, parenting advice, why our family loves cemeteries and a few other weird things.

Enjoy this video rich of Egg-e-rich-sesssss.

(Can’t see this video? Click HERE.)

The Skip-Ahead Notes:

0:00– Siamese Twins + Bestsellers + Hook

2:07– Would you rather Qs (and dalmatians named “Fire!”)

7:06– He could remember her name. She couldn’t remember his.

9:42– “Please don’t let me marry anyone with this name!”

13:05– Grandma’s opinion, and a freshman uprising

15:52– “…You need $25?!”

18:20– How to work together

21:06– Those annoying/frustrating things

24:28– “…But he is a good man.” + Appreciating each other’s strengths

27:19– Imitating or compensating for our upbringing

32:20– When there is sin, grace abounds.

34:30– Teamwork in parenting

38:40– Emerson wasn’t funny

40:30– Cultivating friendship in marriage (and why Joy was still in a high chair at 18 years old)

44:15– How to stay motivated and not lose peace

46:31– What would you do if today was your last day?

48:22– Generativity + the posture of the heart

51:40– Another “Would you rather”

      27:19- Imitating or compensating for our upbringing: Super helpful! Thank you for that encouragement. My husband and I often discuss harmful traits from our own families that we don’t want to pass along to our own children someday.
