Have you fallen into a negative thinking pattern when it comes to your marriage? Are you praising your spouse in your mind or are you focusing on the things they do “wrong”? While this is not uncommon, it is a pattern that will not change unless you catch it, address it, and alter it. Jim welcomes writer, author, and speaker Ted Lowe to discuss this concept from his book, Us in Mind: How Changing Your Thoughts Can Change Your Marriage. This episode is one to save, share, and replay whenever you need practical tips and encouragement for strengthening your marriage!

Jim’s Primary Takeaway
Does it really matter?
It’s all too easy to make mountains out of molehills in our marriages. We’re not talking about serious issues like adultery, abuse, or addictions - we’re talking about your spouse leaving the toilet seat up, leaving dirty dishes in the sink, leaving clothes lying around - these are the little things that can lead to arguments. Ask yourself: in the grand scheme of things, does it really matter? Have calm conversations around things that really bug you, of course - but recognize when something is not worth the energy (or enmity) against your spouse.
