Field Guide for Marriage- A 24/7 Marriage Podcast

Date Nights Aren't Enough

Javier & Shannan Labrador Season 5 Episode 62

We've all heard the advice: "Keep dating your spouse to keep the spark alive." But what if that's not enough? In this episode, we dive deep into the work that makes a marriage thrive—beyond date nights and romantic gestures. We'll explore why emotional connection, communication, and shared purpose matter more than just going out to dinner once a week.

Join us as we dispel the myths of relationship maintenance, share personal stories, and offer practical advice on how to build a strong, lasting marriage that goes beyond "dating."

Tune in now and learn what it takes to make love last!
