In my marriage, my husband and I are both believers in Jesus Christ. I am more active in my faith than my husband and I become discouraged that he doesn’t pursue God more. Early in our marriage this caused conflicts because each of us wanted the other to conform to their idea of following God. I have chosen to grow in my faith and relationship with Christ and pray for my husband to do the same but I no longer pressure him to worship the way I believe he should but instead I encourage him to grow at his own pace with God and he does the same with me.

What tends to be your goal in a conflict with your spouse? Has anything in this lesson changed your perspective on conflict?
-
My goal in conflicts with my spouse is for both of us to feel our positions have been heard and understood and to come to a compromise that is beneficial to both. Knowing and recognizing each others signs of stress or conflict is very important in our marriage being healthy and peaceful. We have learned that actively communicating with each other is key to the well-being of our marriage.
