We mentioned we are reading through the book, I Still Do, by Dave Harvey. One of the first things in the discussion questions was to sit together and share at least 5 things you love and admire about your spouse.

This proved to be a very encouraging conversation, although a little uncomfortable. It is challenging to listen to your spouse say good things about you.

Why is that? Maybe it’s because we aren’t used to it.

We encourage you sometime this week to set aside time together to have this conversation. Make it special with favorite treats you both enjoy.

“A good book at the right time is a wise companion. It’s like a Sherpa for the mind, guiding you up mountains towards maturity—right to the place where God is calling you to go. Good books carry tools we don’t even know we need. But they’re embedded there in the text, ready for our use when the right moment comes.” – Dave Harvey, I Still Do

Let’s start 2026 off by being an encourager to our spouse.
