Making Changes Together In Marriage

How do you make big decisions and changes together in marriage? Change is inevitable: some love it, some hate it, and sometimes it can't be avoided. In this episode Aaron and Jennifer Smith distinguish external change forced on you from internal conviction, and warn against both avoiding necessary change and chasing it out of fleshly cravings. Their practical framework: pray and surrender, seek objective wise counsel rather than building a one-sided case (Proverbs 24:6), go to Scripture, be sober about what a change will cost, listen to one another and make the decision as a team, and give yourself permission to change a change. They also share the change they were making at Marriage After God: ending the season early to focus on family and write children's books and a family devotional.
