Lisa and I get a bit vulnerable in talking about a (very pleasurable) recent vacation experience, to share about a principle I write about in Making Your Marriage a Fortress: learn how to resent the situation instead of your spouse when your marriage faces frustrating circumstances. It’s a tremendous blessing to our marriages when we learn to respond with empathy while being frustrated with the situation; even if that means having empathy for a spouse while we might be frustrated with them. This is a short video, but I think it addresses a vital marital practice.
