My mother pushes me to go to church, I want to go, but not as often as she does. I live with her and my dh and dd. I want my husband to be intrested in god as much as I am, but he doesn't.
I think because he doesn't love god like i do is why i'm pushing god away.
Advice?

Sometimes people just don't want to go to church and just because they don't dosen't mean they reject God. One does not have to go to church to prove that they believe. You cannot make him go, and maybe he dosen't have to, but it really depends on how he feels. You may want to talk to him and listen to what he has to say. Don't force him, just listen. Then maybe something can be worked out. I wish you the best.

Be strong, stay prayerful. If he has fallen off, you stay in there and be the one to keep the relationship towards god and jesus open for the both of you. Pray that god comes into his heart and renews his mind. I am sure in the end he will get there. Also sometimes people tend to fall out from the relationship when people expect things to go their way and god blesses us in his way, or maybe he prayed for something and still hasnt gotten it. Maybe he needs to be reminded that everything happens for a reason. He is our father looking out for his children. If something didnt happen its because he didnt think it was best for us right now or maybe not even at all. Sometimes we also might have to stand still until we get what we need. But in that time we still need to be prayful so we will know when its time to move! I hope this helps. As for your folks making you go, well no one should be pressured to go, you can still get the bedside baptiste church is what i like to call it, which are the tv programs such as freddy price if your christian or td jakes. I love joel osteen too!

The first thing you should do is talk to him about how you feel. However, if he still isn't interested, the best thing you can do is not push him on the issue. If you want to go to church, then go with your mom. Don't make your hubby go, he will end up resenting you for it.

You can't push someone who doesn't want to go to church to go. My son and I go almost every Sunday but my husband chooses not to. Not because he doesn't believe in God or doesn't love him. Just because he chooses not to go. You don't have to go to church to believe or show your love for God. You just keep going and if your husband wants to go, he'll go!
