Am I Wife-Minded or Independent-Minded?

This self-check is a mirror. Place a check mark beside each statement that is genuinely true for you. Take your time. After you mark each one, sit with what you read. Be honest about what it reveals. The goal is simple: to see the patterns that shape how you show up in marriage, so you can build from truth rather than assumption.

Check every statement that is true for you:

Do you treat marriage like a threat to freedom instead of a path to purpose?

Have you confused trends or trauma with God’s design?

Are you more invested in your standards for him than in your growth for marriage?

Are your habits and boundaries aligned with covenant or with self-protection and impulse?

Do you stonewall, explode, or keep score instead of pursuing truth and grace?

Is your faithfulness based on mood or mission?

When pressure rises, do you advise with wisdom or dominate from fear?

Have you normalized dysfunction because it is all you knew?

Are you withholding what you demand?

Do you want covering, romance, and security without yielding, patience, and service?
