Reflecting on Christmas Past, Present, and Future as a Couple
Manage episode 457260677 series 2956686
We don't have to be Scrooges to benefit from reflecting on Christmas past, present, and future. In this episode, we talk about how looking back, living now, and planning ahead together can enrich our marriages.
TAKE THE "US TIME" CHALLENGE
If you’ve been married five years or more, practice nostalgia with your spouse. Ask each other about your favorite Christmas you’ve spent together and why it stands out to you. If you have been married less than five years, plan ahead on where you want to be relationally next Christmas.
