We've got just three episodes left in 2019 (can you believe it??), and these last episodes are going to focus on practical management strategies for different areas of life: marriage, family and everyday/holiday. This week, we dive into tangible things that have helped us navigate our marriages. This is by no means us having it all figured out; rather it's us haring the few things we have figured out and realizing we have a lot more to learn along the way. (This uniting of two separate people into one flesh is not for the faint of heart, y'all!) Listen in and see if any of our stories and lessons learned might help you avoid some of the bumps in the road we encountered!
Know Your Why! Know your God-given calling in marriage. Know Your Who! Be a life-long student of your marriage and your spouse. Know You! Know your negotiables and non-negotiables. Be able to walk away from the negotiables. "Better to live in a desert than with a quarrelsome and nagging wife." (Prov 21:19)Know When! Stop the vicious cycle if necessary. "Everyone enjoys a fitting reply; it is wonderful to say the right thing at the right time!" (Prov 15:23)Know Your How! "The unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit is of great value in the eyes of the Lord." (I Peter 3:4)BE EDUCATED:
