Why Being Right in Marriage Can Be Wrong Team Us

    • Relationships

How often do you need to be right? And how do you respond when you’re not right, and your spouse is? We’re digging into all that today and discussing why being right in marriage can be wrong. Listen in as we chat about how we can help maintain the peace, not by hoping that our spouse, if ever asked, applaud us as always right. But instead, by actively practicing humility.

2 Practical Ways to Choose Humility


Reject me-centeredness
Choose both/and

Us Time Challenge 

Identify if there are any little areas where you insist on being right. We all have them. Then, figure out how you can practice both/and in this area.
