Have you ever heart... "Sure, whatever" only to come home to a furious spouse? This isn't a lack of communication skills—it's the Different Glasses Problem.We reveal why husbands and wives often see the same moment through completely different lenses: Blue Glasses filter through logic and respect, while Pink Glasses filter through love and emotional connection.

Discover the critical truth found in Ephesians 5:33 and the universal core needs of men (respect) and women (love).

We'll expose the three most dangerous phrases—"Sure, whatever," "I'm Fine," and "We Need to Talk"—and give you practical Translation Tools to bridge the gap.

Stop focusing on the 7% (the words) and start understanding the 93% (tone and context) to experience breakthroughs in your marriage.

Hey there, Parents! Today on Better Together, we're talking about something that's super important but can be really tough: being on the same page in your parenting. We've definitely made our fair share of mistakes in this area, especially early on in our marriage.

For us it often seemed to center around discipline...we just weren't on the same wavelength! Yeah, it wasn't pretty.

But we've learned that when it comes to parenting, unity is key. Having those tough conversations behind closed doors and presenting a united front to our kids is essential. Disunity can create a wedge between you and your spouse, and it can leave your kids feeling confused and insecure. So, let's talk about how to bridge the gap, find common ground, and work together to raise happy, healthy, and faithful kids!

Hey there, Parents! Today on Better Together, we're diving into a topic that's super important but often overlooked: setting boundaries for your kids. Let's face it, boundaries can feel like a buzzkill sometimes. We want our kids to feel loved and free, but without clear limits, things can get chaotic fast. We're talking confusion, frustration, and a whole lot of it!!  But guess what? Boundaries aren't about being mean or strict. They're actually a way to show your kids that you really love them. When they know what's expected of them, they feel more secure and less anxious. It's like having a roadmap for life. So, let's talk about how to set boundaries that are both loving and effective. We'll share some real-life examples and practical tips that you can start using today. Let's do this together!
