And this really does go back to that issue of making a choice that says, I love you rather than a choice that says I love me.

So that means that we're kind of ebbing and flowing with each other through the day and being mindful of

where the other person is at. Well those are some wise words for your marriage and

we're looking forward to hearing a lot more marital wisdom from our guests

Matt and Lisa Jacobson.

Thanks for joining us today for focus on the family with Jim Daly.

I'm John Fuller.

Hey John, our goal at focus as you know and we all know is to help strengthen marriages. Let's make a good marriage

great. Basically because those of us who claim Christ, it's a testimony to people who are

watching us and we want that witness to be as strong as possible.

We want to honor the Lord in our marital relationships.

And I'm telling you it's not always easy. Right from my mouth, Jean and I don't always do it well. We can get on each other's nerves from time.

Yeah. Newsflow. In fact, just this morning. No, I'm kidding. We had a beautiful morning reading the word together. It's so fun.

If you're experiencing kind of the clunkiness and

need a tune-up, this program today is going to be for you. If you're experiencing

more serious issues,

you know, we have caring Christian counselors,

we want you to call, we have a wonderful program

called Hope Restored with an 80% post-2-year success rate

for those marriages that are really experiencing, you know, dramatic

stress, potentially even divorce.

And we are there for you at that level as well.
