When you go out as a couple, do you and your spouse engage the people God puts in your path? Or are you so focused on yourselves that you miss out on impacting others and allowing others to affect you? Today, we share three reasons to engage others as a couple.

3 Reasons to Engage Others as a Couple

1. Engaging others as a couple can push us out of our comfort zone, which is where we grow the most.
2. Engaging others allows us to help others feel seen and valued.
3. Engaging others pushes us to surrender our plans to God’s plans.
