What separates happy marriages from miserable ones? Surprisingly, it’s not healthy communication. It’s not conflict resolution skills. It’s actually the size of the marriage’s joy gap. In today’s conversation, we discuss how joy—not just communication—can transform your marriage, practical habits to deepen your connection, and why emotional resilience is key to lasting love. Whether your marriage is thriving or struggling, this conversation offers powerful insights.

Letting go of our ability to control the outcome isn’t easy, it requires trust. When we surrender our control to Jesus and yield to His will for our lives and marriages it can feel like a scary place, but ultimately the fruit will be much better than anything we can produce in our own strength. In today’s conversation, we talk about the journey of giving up control of our lives and each other in marriage as we choose surrender instead. This surrender is not to our spouse, but rather to the Lord - which will in response cause us to act more humbly towards each other in our marriage.

Rather than approaching our marriage in the same way we shop for deals and money-back guarantees around boxing day, what if we approached it more like an Olympic athlete approaches their training routine?   Today’s conversation is part of our Bricks and Hammer series and we’re talking about how a 50/50 mindset will bring destruction to our marriage whilst taking an “all-in” approach will help us build a strong and lasting relationship.
