Ep 165. Meeting Your Own Needs in Marria...

Jody Moore
About this episode

The idea that we should get married, then try to meet one another's needs sounds like a nice one in theory, but in reality, it causes more problems and puts distance and resentment in homes and families. Today I'm breaking down the concept of meeting your own needs. I want to clarify what this means and why I believe this is what Heavenly Father wants for us. We'll touch on the Family Proclamation and I'll explain why this helps couples be closer and stronger than ever.

The post Ep 165. Meeting Your Own Needs in Marriage appeared first on Jody Moore.
