Should your marriage make you happy?

It seems like an obvious answer.  I mean, we didn't get married to feel unhappy with someone for the next 50 years.  We want it to be fun and positive.  We want to enjoy marriage.

But what do we do when our spouse doesn't make us happy?  How should we feel when they frustrate us or disappoint us?  As much as we want to feel happy with each other all of the time we can't avoid feeling challenged, upset and sometimes even angry with them.

Maybe marriage is meant to create deeper feelings than happiness.  Maybe there is far more to gain from this journey.

Listen and hear Griffin and Heather share how marriage has made them feel far more than happiness.  You will hear how expecting happiness can be difficult in marriage and why that should really be a secondary goal because there are much stronger feelings to experience through your marriage that will be a much greater blessing.
