The Perfect Apology

Disappointing Mother's Day

Speaking kindly to your spouse

I don't want to hate my husband

Share a dream with your spouse

What should you do if your Mother’s Day was a bust? What should you do if after 35 years there is no love left and you wish you had never married your husband? Doug goes to the mailbag answering these questions and more.

 

Listener question and comments:
Chris - My wife says I don’t speak to her kindly. She will ask me to explain something and I won’t be super nice, I guess. (24:28)
Felipe - I have recently been introduced to Agape Love and it completely changed my outlook of marriage. (27:28)
