Moving Beyond the Quid-Pro-Quo Marriage and Earning Love

from Doing Marriage Well · host paulb5d

This episode challenges the idea that love must be earned or exchanged. Paul explores how perfectionism and a "quid pro quo" mindset damage marriage and contrasts that with a mature, grace-filled love that does not keep score. Listeners are invited to examine whether they try to earn their spouse's love or expect their spouse to earn theirs and to practise seasons of giving and receiving grace instead of transactional expectations.
