One of the best yet complicated relationships we experience in life can often be with our in-laws. And while we want to love them, we can find ourselves struggling not to get annoyed or frustrated at them. Despite knowing that only makes things more complicated for everyone.  
So in today’s episode, Quinn addresses how to improve this relationship by discussing these three simple tools: 

Look for what they offer you. Not what they don’t offer you.  
Pay attention to the way they meet your spouse’s needs in the way your family does not.  
Communicate what needs to be said but start with your spouse. 

Mind Renewal Tip: 
There is not right or wrong to the way families do all things. It’s just our norms that make us feel that way.  
Scripture Renewal Tip: 
“Love must be completely sincere. Hate what is evil, hold on to what is good. Love one another warmly as Christians, and be eager to show respect for one another” Romans 12:9-10
