When was the last time...you and your partner took the time to take stock of your mutual needs?
How long has it been...since you two sat down to talk about each other's needs or assess how well you are meeting them?
Unless you've never had such a discussion... Maybe the idea has never even occurred to you... “Why would it be so important to discuss our needs? After all, we love each other; Isn’t that enough?”
A successful marriage requires thoughtful, careful effort, unwavering commitment, and lots and lots of work.
In his book, Before Love Dies, Larry Russell simply shares the seven essential pillars of a successful marriage. No couple can afford to neglect them.
