How Much Do You Trust God in Time of Crisis?
With a pandemic coming ever closer to our door, I felt like this was a perfect time to shift from a marriage focus to a spiritual one of trusting God more. Rest assured, our trust in God is a marriage issue! We are also much better parents and grandparents. 😉 Our confidence and hope in…

How to Understand Emotional Differences in Marriage Using the Bible
As women, God made us special. We are uniquely designed with different emotional makeup than a man. Why do you think God made a woman for Adam instead of creating another Adam for Adam? He created a woman for Adam because Adam needed something different than himself. Men and women are different because God made…

Do You Need to Trust Your Spouse More?
I’m writing this post to help you gain insight into how wise you’re being and how well you’re doing on trusting your spouse.

How to Find the Motivation to Submit to Your Spouse
With fear of a pandemic spreading across the globe, some people are running amuck—antibacterial gel and toilet paper in hand! 😉 What’s even more ridiculous is how we often completely ignore the other “relational” illnesses that afflict our lives and marriages.

Find Out How to Improve Faithfulness in Your Marriage
Anyone whose marriage has been rocked by an affair certainly knows the monumental need for faithfulness.

How I’m Overcoming Arguing AND Not Planning for the Future!
I’m extending last week’s focus on forgiveness for another week since it’s such an important topic! Besides, I’ve got two other posts I want to highlight for you this week. One has to do with my tendency to argue, which certainly dovetails nicely with forgiveness. And the other one has to do with planning for…

How Forgiving are You? Take the Inventory to Find Out!
Years ago, I grew very interested in the subject of forgiveness, mostly because I realized how much I needed it in my marriage! So I committed to continuing education and training, as well as applying the principles to my own life with God’s help. This not only profited me with a new coaching niche but…
