Marriage Challenge: Follow Wise Advice
In my last marriage challenge, I encouraged those of us who are married to ask another Christian married couple for relationship advice. If you were able to do that, I hope the experience was beneficial. If you have not yet taken up the challenge, please consider doing so at your earliest convenience.
Assuming you already have, your next challenge is to take one piece of advice you learned and implement it in your marriage within the next two weeks. Please take a moment to think about the advice you received from the couple you met with, and jot down the top two or three of the tips that resonated most with you. Then pick one and do it at least once in the next 14 days. Your marriage may improve a little or a lot, but any improvement is wonderful.
“The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
But a wise man is he who listens to counsel.”
—Proverbs 12:15, NASB
