Not looking to fix anything broken, just thinking about something to spark new conversations, ideas or perhaps get DW and I to look at new viewpoints. Marriage is good. Been married 27 years and reality is you get pretty set in assumptions and how you look at things and interact over time. In the spirit of continuous improvement, it is good to examine things from time to time.
Yeah, we could just talk about stuff, but since it is the two of us with the same long term history I'm not sure we would get the new perspectives to discuss. That is why I think a book or study would be good. Not looking for a marriage bed study, but something more on communication/romance - the foundation and environment things that when better can help all aspects of marriage (including therefore the marriage bed).
Open to any resources that are not 1) contrary to a Christian worldview or 2) if Christian highly patriarchal. So secular could be fine. Egalitarian or complementarian could be fine. We got that balance sorted out so can work around what would be chaff to us.
Post is getting too long...so... what is the best resource you've experienced and what was good about it?
