Great advice. Clearly comes from experience.
1. Your spouse is not God. They cannot complete you.
2. Communication is essential. Arguing is better than silence, so long as there is constructive communication happening.
3. You don't always have to be right. Listen more than you talk.
4. Fix yourself in order to perfect your marriage. Be the person you want to marry.
5. Friendship first. Romance second. Romance fades - are you really friends with this person?
6. Talk about things that matter and unite - things both intellectual and spiritual.
the 6th - not really that what they meant, and all of them are a little bit not fully, they speak about God, and not in a philosophical way, do not ' censor '
That's really lovely and so true.
Thanks for the Video! Forgive me for the intrusion, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you heard about - Taparton Saving Family Takeover (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for helping a troubled marriage minus the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my m8 got amazing success with it.
There are a few tips for saving your marriage
Try to talk more
Cooperate with each other more
Try to give and take more
(I discovered these and why they work on Pavs Partner Pundit website )
Super advices 👍🙏
After 41 years and still going in our marriage, it's refreshing to hear your advice. Friendship and laughter makes a difference. In today's world here's a tip to add - Be mentally present when you are physically present. (put down the iPhone/iPad.) Blessings on your marriage.
Garry Hall Amen
Thank you for not giving the "never go to bed angry" cliche. Trust me. It will happen. It doesn't mean you're a failure.
"Look at the soul of the camera honey" 😂 I love how their personalities complement eachother
Thank you! Opened my heart and mind to a new relationship with my husband. God bless your union!
Praise God! Beautiful!!
Thanks. Pray someday, I'll get a great wife too if that's the vocation for me.
God bless, Proverbs 31
I just ended a relationship we liked each other in atraction and friendship, but not in faith. So, I truly worked hard to persuade her about the meaning and importance of Jesus' friendship in our daily relationship, but we couldn't make it. It ain't easy at all if we don't share faith. God bless!!!
Just experienced this myself. Without the common bond of faith it’s doomed to failure
Love: “...reality is better than the romance....” and the fact that friendship is a strong key point in marriage
I am devoting time in prayer for your marriage and family. May your hearts and minds be guarded against all that can harm it.
I have just discovered your videos, and have subscribed. It might sound odd, given that I am not Catholic, and aged seventy six and widowed. We are never too old to learn, and what might not apply in my life could be helpful to another. It is refreshing to hear two young married people speak openly about the dynamics which undergird a successful
marriage.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom. 👏👏👏
Great advice Jackie and Bobbie!. Also the ways you guys interact with each other is too cute😍😍
I love how he just stares at you, God Bless your beautiful marriage 🙏🏼🥰
If only I would have heard talks like this before getting married but I'm glad my husband and I are listening to it now! Thank you so much for your videos please make more!!! God bless
Very good. These things need to be counselled and worked on before marriage. So glad the Grace of God led you to put these videos up for public consumption.
Wish I had heard this as far back as high school. Excellent.
Thank You Very Much Bobby for the Concept of "Grounding" a real relationship, because without it, The Current of Love, cannot "flow".
Incredible advice! I'm already soooo excited about your series here on Ascension Presents. Can't wait for more content 😁👍 God bless!
This is a big thing, I hear the “they don’t complete you” and that’s true, but I’m not fixable before marriage. I can start, but I feel a lot of pressure from videos like this to be “fixed” first… just throwing that out there in case anybody feels the same…
It is so important to understand the fundamentals of marriage. I started dating my husband when we were 14 years old and have been together ever since. We now have one beautiful baby girl. I made a video of our marriage secret sauce too :)
God bless u
Jackie and Bobbie, THANK YOU. This is outstanding adivce. Wouldn't it be great if a marriage course like this was presented to high school students. I had a course in Marriage at St. Louis University during college that included what you are saying and even expanded it on it. It was so hugely helpful! Thank you for this and for your down-to-earth real personalities. I also loved the video about using the Interactive Mass Book for children. Thank you very much. Sue Anthony
Loved u two from the time I first heard your testimony of how God brought y'all together...great video!
I'm so glad I found this channel. I will also share this with my family and friends.
Wonderful advice. Friendship is built on trust and respect without that you have nothing.
Thank you for sharing this message! God continued blessings in your marriage❤️
Sincere and natural . Thank you both for sharing . God bless . May your marriage continue into eternity.
Thank you, Paul!
Please pray for our marriage 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🕊🔥
I can already tell I'm going to love this new series!
Glad you two are on this channel now. Looking forward to more!!
Really enjoy watching your videos. Good advice. God bless your marriage and family xx
so happy to see a young catholic couple!!! youre rockin it guyssss
So happy to have you here!!!!! 🎆🎉
aw you 2 are so sweet! Looking forward to more videos. If you have made videos before, I must have missed them. I love #1 so much!! Learned it when I was dating and it was so freeing - that no human will complete me. That it's okay that I need time with girlfriends, etc. My husband is amazing but he's not perfect - God is perfect!!
This is fantastic. Wonderful tips and advice for a happy, healthy, & holy relationship. Thank you, God bless!🙏🏻💛
Thank you that was very helpful. Lord I have learned so much from Ascension Presents that with out these brothers and sisters I would not be as close to you as I am today. God bless
Good series and I'm looking forward to hearing more! Good bless!
Very practical tips. You two are great! As they say in French: keep em' coming!
This video is amazing~! Bless you two for the Wisdom you share. You are a Gift to us all, Alexandra~ Heaven~
God bless you and all listening..
True, when GOD is in the relationship
the well-being of your soulmate is rooted in LOVE.
Life has no guarantees but if you marry a person who brings out the best in you-that’s another indication...as a couple grows, the love grows deeper (even in the challenging times when we can’t see it in the moment).
Always thankful for all my blessings - the big ones, the small ones and the ones we may not notice. May we never lose our focus ❣️
Such a beautiful couple. Thanks for this.
Thankyou so much for you sharing your experiences and advise. May God bless you always🙏
Thank you so much for this beautiful video!
God loves you keep it up to be a true witness to marriage in this generation
Great advices! I’m still single and happy with the way it is
This sounds like perfect advice. Some of it is for before you are married and some after though this leans more towards before. I'd like to see a video on advice once you are married and you realize that you've already made a lot of the mistakes listed here. a) maybe you don't have common goals or b) maybe you don't have a friendship and can't talk about deep things together. How do you acquire these things once you are married and realize that you don't have them?
Great video, good advice. Looking forward to seeing more like it. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for the encouragement, Tim!
Y’all are too cute. God Bless your marriage until death do you part.
Alleluia🙌🏻🙏🏻❤️🕊
Amazingly Wise Advice! All of them! Thanks To God!! May God Bless you and The Blessed Virgin Mary Protect you and your marriage, you are one flesh now, guys, hold on to God. God Love you. Thank you, guys!
@Ascension Presents Jackie & Hubby, what great advice. I doubt you remember me Jackie, my name is Bruno. You were Keynote at our Diocese of San José Youth Tahoe Retreat. My goodness it must be 10 years now. You were an amazing Keynote, and ready to jump in on the most ridiculous fun. Such a Sport. So, yeah, Hi‼️ I pray the Holy Spirit rain abundant blessings upon your Sacramental Union, especially as it connects you to the Most Holy Trinity, and should your family grow, may the Lord favor them and Blessings be Abundant upon them as well. In the Most Precious Name of Jesus Christ we pray, amen‼️‼️🛐🛐🛐🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💞💞💞💯💯💯
Yaaay. Its Jackie and Bobby!!!
Great job guys!🙏🏻
Great advice, thanks!
I totally agree with your advice.
I can see unhappiness in his eyes..
Maybe he’s burnt out on being told what to do all the time 😂
Thanks for the advice.
You guys are great!
Practice the art of listening and giving the other your full attention without interrupting them when they are speaking. When you let the other finish what they are saying you're showing them that you value their thoughts and ideas as much as your own.
So excited for this new series!
Also, what happened to our Matt Fradd Monday? xP
Jackie and Bobby, glad you're doing these bits. I really appreciate it. I have a few questions of my own.
In these so-called modern times, we're often seeing a lot of talk about gender roles and the gender binary, to what extent is it inherent, or socialized, et cetera. What do you think are the ideal, essential, bare minimum roles for the husband and wife to inhabit in a solid, holy Catholic marriage? What is absolutely necessary, and what is not?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
🙌🙌🙌 I knew it was going to be a party. 🎉🎉🎉
Great video you guys keep up the good work. GOD BLESS 🕇 ❤ 😆
You are both very blessed. Thank you for the video and the helpful advice. Where oh where can we meet couples like us? I struggle 😔 God bless you both 🙏🏻🕯❤️
Ahhh my favorite couple!!

Mother Mary bless you family. .
We've been married for 16 years . Got married in the Courthouse After that we got married in the cafe church The priest Bless Our wedding rings. We did good for a while Then I made a huge mistake and left the church My wife Took the kids to church when I went to my own church. Eventually I came back to the church did all my confessions Going to mass every sunday And taken the holy week communion. I've been Back To the church seven weeks now. My wife and my kids are catholic . So far it hasn't sunk in Then i'm here to stay Still married still living at the same house . I'm praying for my wife that she start coming to Mass Again None the cars of her not going to mass I messed up Don't worry thing I can do is pray for her and keep going myself until she's ready the golden mass.
When are we getting new videos . We miss you guys. God bless you both
Epic advice🤯
communication will save nations! ay
Peace brother and sister. Great advice. I can only wish my wife liked my beard.
Some of the problem comes from one person being insistent of what they "need" but really, its just what they "want". Before imposing on your loved one, be strict on yourself remembering emotional independence is a good thing too, the best precursor to sharing emotions.
Can someone finally make a video on couples who struggle with infertility? I.e. why God would prevent something inherently good from occurring - "be fruitful and multiply"
Great request - thank you!
Sympathies, folks. It's not God's doing, any more than any other disease.
There are children with no mommy and daddy, there are adults with no children. Mix these together and destiny!
@lrenturn You know, you're not actually helping!
Also, the contents of the Bible were decided on by the church, so it can't be the sole authority.
Maybe it’s a way to guide you to other options. So many children need to be adopted and shown love, maybe one of them is meant for you and you for them. Maybe pray to God for his will for your life?
Can add tips on how to listen to your spouse without getting agitated? Or how do exactly to argue without detriment our relationship?
Yay!!! Are they going to be on every Tuesday?
Yes! Tuesdays 3:30 eastern :) if you have any requests use #askjackieandbobby
or #askjackie #askbobby
Pray for us. Please
Pure statements
I like his beard too! 😃
Jackie and Bobby
How long have u guys been married???
I've been married for 40 years and still trying to communicate with my husband in a healthy manner but unfortunately I have had to reconcile to the fact that things happen in God's own time.... please pray for me...
We’re 33 years married and also still working on this vital area. Offering Prayers!
And affirm, affirm, affirm. That's right honey.
great
... the way they look at each other...
Amen
Gorgeous couple, inside and out. Just one comment, for Bobby - mixed tapes? Really?
Shucks ♡ haha what a nice video
7:52 they have to be your best friend.
"shucks"😅😅
What if your communication is not welcomed by your spouse and they just don’t want to hear it, like being open to more children? For years… now it is becoming a huge resentment that grows with each passing month.
Hy there! Could you pls tell me according to your religion, when or if a wife has the right to refuse the sexual embrace of her husband ( if she feels sick, tired or simply preocupated of sth else, not in the right mood)
Or, if she is not ready to get pregnant again , so soon?
According to mine, married People should withhold during lent, but only if they both agree. Otherwise is considered a sin to say no bc you want to fast for it ( bc you "force" the Other one to do it against his /her will)
What if the Other spouse is nota catholic and he disagree the catholic ideas about the reasons of having sex ? ( asking to do it just for physical satisfaction, but avoiding the possibility of procreation, or even not excluding the possibility of pregnancy termination)?
Amen🙌💕
Sure you dont have to be perfect, but God calls each and everyone to be HOLY. SO BOTH OF YOU SHOULD LIVE HOLY LIVES.
