If you like to challenge status quo and look outside the box and think what if and is that possible if I try then we will get along well! I love to call all into question that which is and ask the hard questions of why? P.S. No comments will be posted as anonymous! Get a pair!

10 Questions We Should Ask About Our Marriage!

#1 – Do you monthly access your marriage and ask each other hard questions?  (This means with no cell phones, Ipad,  TV, or books)

#2 – Have you taken a weekend in the last year alone with no kids and just focused on each other AND MARRIAGE?  (Kids will receive the biggest benefit because its proven that parents who are madly in love with each other, that there kids have higher self esteem!)
#3 – Do you take a weekly date night to be with your spouse alone for several hours? (Dudes, you were willing to pursue her before marriage, be a man and fight to find her captivating through marriage!)
#4 – Are we ignoring an issue, hoping it will go away rather than dealing with it? (Camp there till you can honestly talk about any issue freely!)
#5 – (For the men) – Dudes, where is your mind?  Are you finding things in other women more interesting and appealing then your own?
#6 – (For the ladies) – Am I spending more time communicating with men who are NOT my husband through facebook than I am spending communicating face to face with him?
#7 – Do you make work your obsession, or prioritize time at home with you wife (and kids)? (The church seems to praise being a workaholic, YET IT IS STILL WRONG!)  Maybe some pastors are more concerned with your tithe than your marriage?
#8 – How much do we daily pray for each other and the condition of our marriage? (God honors your pray life!)
#9 – Does the way that I speak about my spouse to others when they are not around make others think more highly of them…OR more lowly of them? (Ask your close friends what kind of spouse they think you have from how you have talked about them?)
#10 – AM I WILLING TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO HAVE A GREAT MARRIAGE AND AT ALL COST MAKE IT WORK?
