Prioritizing Your Marriage in a Busy, Always-On World
Bible Verse: “Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.” — Romans 12:10
Life Feels Like a Never-Ending To-Do List, Right?
Work meetings, school drop-offs, endless notifications, and trying to fit in one more thing before bed—modern life is relentless. And guess what often gets pushed to the bottom of the list? Your marriage.
Studies show that nearly 60% of married couples feel more like roommates than romantic partners (The Gottman Institute). That’s not what God intended!
Why This Matters
When your marriage becomes “just another task,” intimacy, connection, and trust suffer. But here’s the good news: Your marriage doesn’t have to get lost in the chaos.
