The common approach to improving marriage typically involves seeking external steps or advice to fix others. However, true marital improvement begins with personal responsibility, drawing a parallel to the Genesis account, in which Adam and Eve blamed others rather than taking ownership. Marriage serves as a sanctification tool, a process through which God shapes individuals to be more like Christ.

Discover why focusing on your own physical, emotional, and spiritual health is the only part of your marriage you can truly control, and how placing Jesus first in your heart transforms your ability to extend grace and love to your spouse.
