We love sharing the stories of what makes you smile when you think about your spouse.  But we also know many of our listeners are in tough marriages and may not have much if anything to smile about.  This week we spend a few minutes to pray for our listeners who are in marriages that feel hopeless.

We can’t seem to help it- the words we speak are often clothed in this invisible layer we call tone- sometimes that tone makes us understand each other there better, and other times, those tones make things worse.   Especially when tones are misread and then we assume things that aren’t there.   In this week’s episode, we share our struggle with tone and how we keep them from getting misread.
