On today's episode, we continue our conversation about guarding your marriage. Today we talk specifically about guarding our marriages from behaviors. Things like work behavior, hobbies, substance abuse, and pornography. We must be intentional and aware when creating boundaries with our behavior to minimize tension and increase communication with our marriage. This is one boundary that many couples overlook. Take a listen to see where you can apply healthy boundaries to have the marriage you've always wanted.

Today is Part 2 to last week where we specifically talk about putting boundaries in your marriage to guard from the opposite sex. From text messages, to lunch meetings, to social media, we must be extremely careful, intentional, and transparent when creating boundaries and communicating with your spouse when it comes to interaction with the opposite sex.

Begin to look at fighting together, for your marriage rather than fighting against each other, in your marriage. It's vital to have this mindset in order to have the marriage you were destined to have.
