Hi, this is Jim Daly. We've enjoyed spending time with you this year, helping strengthen your marriage, your parenting, and your walk with Jesus Christ.

If you've been blessed by this ministry, can you pay it forward by donating to Focus on the Family before the end of the year?

Thanks to our $8 million match, your giving will have twice the impact.

Call 800 A-Family or donate at

FocusOnthefamily.com slash family. If a deduction is important to you for your 2025 income tax

return and you're concerned about the recent Postal Service rule change for postmarks,

consider making your donation online or giving us a call.

And if you understand coming into it what the so-called purpose of this evening is,

it becomes a lot easier to put the phone down, to focus on your spouse, and to really make a

concerted effort to meet them where they're at.

That's Jay LaFoon, and he and his wife Laura

share about fun date nights for married couples in today's best of 2025 episode of Focus on the

Family with Jim Daly. Thanks for joining us. I'm John Fuller. John, it can be easy to get

wrapped up in the busyness of life and stop investing time in our spouse. But we're going to

help you get out of that rut today because your marriage is worth the investment. And I'm always

looking forward to some fun ideas for dates with Gene. And taking the time to go on regular

date nights may not seem significant, but it's a practical way to put your marriage first

and show love to your spouse. And the conversation we're going to hear today was one of our most

popular programs of the year. We heard from so many people who were inspired to go have fun with

their spouse, and we wanted to share that with you again. And the guests, as I said, are Jay and

Laura LaFoon. They have a lot of joy and energy and some great ideas. They're entertaining,

and they really spend their time educating and encouraging couples to strengthen their marriages.
