We love Jesus and believe in His goodness as reflected in His design for marriage. We also know that this world is hard, marriage can be hard, and let’s face it, each of us can be hard. Hopes for Marriage is committed to bringing free resources through weekly content to remind us of God’s truth, bring tools and ideas that will make a difference, and encouragement to stay the course. Oh, and also to have some (or a lot) of fun along the way! Why Hopes For Marriage: Because despite how it often feels, you are not alone - and we are not alone - in our desire to see God’s plan for marriage flourish. God called us into community for a purpose! Together we are far more resilient, able to withstand the storms of life, and far more effective in the call to reflect His love and grace to our spouse and one another. To stand together in all God has for us as husband and wife, that’s why there is always Hopes for Marriage!

Want to leverage your tone of voice for a better communication outcome with your spouse?
In last week’s episode we discussed the significance of our tone of voice, our default modes, and how it tells a bigger story. This week learn the specifics of how your tone can be an invitation for engagement instead of a trigger for conflict - and let’s be honest, triggering our spouse (knowingly or unknowingly) is rarely a recipe for success!
Here’s some of what we talk about:
- 3 dials on our tone amplifier and how each reflects intense emotions and the impact this can have on our spouse.
- Why we might choose James Earl Jones over Fran Drescher to read us our bedtime stories. (3:00)
- How tone of voice relates to our biological responses of either engagement or flight or fight, and the irony of how we engage often creating the opposite response than what we’re wanting. (6:37)
- The invitation that we are given by our Creator to not play by the rules of this world, to take a deep breath, and listen to His loving tone. (8:35)
