Praise creates positive energy in a marriage.

And it's interesting to me, every counseling session, I've done thousands and thousands

of counseling sessions with couples.

Every session I begin with a couple, I have them appreciate each other.

Dr. Randy Schrader joins us again today on Focus on the

family, and we thank you for joining us. I'm John Fuller and your host is Focus President and author

Jim Daley. John, I think we both agree. The conversation last time was so helpful. There's so many

great little deposits of wisdom that Randy provides in this book, Simple Habits for Marital Happiness.

I mean, you could just start taking little notes.

Yeah, he's got a way to make things stand out and be remembered.

Some great hooks.

It's perfect.

We discuss simple choices that really strengthen your connection with your spouse.

Who doesn't want that?

Things like saying thank you and reconnecting for two

minutes at the end of the day, saying I love you when you leave the house, saying I love you when

you go to bed at night. You think of those as just, you know, fluff, but couples that practice

those habits have happier marriages. And it doesn't take a lot, but it's thoughtfulness that counts.

And I'm looking forward to another part of that discussion today.
