Marriage Resources


Aaron and I are always looking for ways to strengthen our marriage. We've been friends for thirty-nine years, and we have a long history together. But we still have room for improvement :)


We found a cute little book: "The 4 Habits of Joy-Filled Marriages". Normally we stay away from resources that make relationships sound easy if you only follow this simple formula. But something about the brain science behind this book, coupled with its faith-based approach, caught my eye. So, we tried it!

The book is organized around four habits that form the acronym PLAN:
Play together
Listen for emotion
Appreciate daily
Nurture rhythm

We found the suggestions and exercises to be a helpful springboard for our marriage and have added this book to our "marriage toolbox".
