Saying “I do” is more than two words - it’s a promise to love and support your spouse unconditionally. But, once reality sets in, it can be a challenge to stay on track and continue pursuing a Christ-centered relationship filled with passion and purpose. This is why we’ve created the 31-Day Pursuit Challenge, a His and Her book bundle that encourages you to grow together as though you were physically exploring the map that God intended for your marriage ==> https://31daypursuit.com

Not only that, but we have included 50 creative date ideas that will inspire you both to try new things together. Who knows, maybe you two will become the next scuba-diving masters 🙂

Good lessons for husbands from St. John Chrysostom (d. 407).

From the Catechism of the Catholic Church (para. 2365): “St. John Chrysostom suggests that young husbands should say to their wives: I have taken you in my arms, and I love you, and I prefer you to my life itself. For the present life is nothing, and my most ardent dream is to spend it with you in such a way that we may be assured of not being separated in the life reserved for us.... I place your love above all things, and nothing would be more bitter or painful to me than to be of a different mind than you." Wow!
