    Drift: The Silent Marriage Killer You Don't See Coming

    This week, I want to discuss drift.  It’s common to drift in our lives. If we aren’t focused on something, we tend to drift. If we’re overly focused on something, we may drift in other areas.  In some parts of our lives, drift is not an issue. But it’s a major problem when it happens […] The post Drift: The Silent Marriage Killer You Don’t See Coming first appeared on Doing Marriage Well.

    Marriage Tipping Points: Unlocking Sexual Health

    Our original tipping point post was made by my wife, thirteen years ago. In Tip Me Over, she talked about all the things from her childhood and early adult years that made sex a problem for her. Because she was intentional about becoming sexually healthy, “Over the years I learned not to fear sex and […] The post Marriage Tipping Points: Unlocking Sexual Health first appeared on Doing Marriage Well.

    Tipping Points: Using Affirmation for Positive Change

    As I have already said, relationship tipping points can lead to good or bad things. Learning to cause good tipping points is a powerful marriage tool. One good way to use this is to offset years or decades of negative messages your spouse received from their family or friends. In this case, you didn’t put […] The post Tipping Points: Using Affirmation for Positive Change first appeared on Doing Marriage Well.

    Tipping Points: When Complaints Stop

    Given how difficult it can be to reverse a relational tipping point, wisdom suggests we should try to catch a situation before it tips. More than once, Lori and I have dealt with a couple where one had reached a tipping point, and no longer cared about their marriage. They were done, and there was […] The post Tipping Points: When Complaints Stop first appeared on Doing Marriage Well.

    Adding Good to Restore Relationship Balance

    If you want to move a balance beam scale, you either add weight to the side that is up, or remove weight from the side that is down. The same is generally true with tipping points in relationships, but it’s not always as simple as it would be for a physical scale. There are some […] The post Adding Good to Restore Relationship Balance first appeared on Doing Marriage Well.

    Marriage Tipping Points: Small Things Add Up to Big Changes

    I want to talk about marriage Tipping Points this week.  If you put a big rock on one side of a balance scale, and then start to add pebbles one at a time to the other side, eventually one single pebble will cause the pebble side to drop as the rock rises. There’s nothing special […] The post Marriage Tipping Points: Small Things Add Up to Big Changes first appeared on Doing Marriage Well.

    Doing Marriage Together: Being Present During Sex

    Obviously, having sex needs to be on the list of things a couple does together. What I want to focus on today is what it means to “do sex together”. Good sex is a participation sport. If either of you is not fully participating, you’re not having the kind of sex God calls you to. […] The post Doing Life Together: Being Present During Sex first appeared on Doing Marriage Well.

    Doing Life Together: Attending Church Strengthens Marriage

    High on the list of things a couple should do together is going to church. If you and your sweetie can’t agree on a church, you have a problem that won’t be solved by going to separate churches. If your faith is a big deal to you, sharing it with your spouse is a must. […] The post Doing Life Together: Attending Church Strengthens Marriage first appeared on Doing Marriage Well.
