Talk to Your Wife About Money

The number one reason people get divorced in the United States is money. If you are married, do you and your spouse have regular meetings about your money? Do you fight or do you both stay cool when you talk about money? 

In Ephesians 4:1-3 it says: 

As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received.  Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.  Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. 

The first step to success in marriage and handling money in marriage, is to pursue unity.

So, my encouragement to you today is to set time aside with your wife to talk about money.

Ask some good questions, discover how your spouse feels about where you currently are and what could be improved. But remember, be completely humble and gentle; be patient with your wife as you listen and share.  The most important thing we are called to as married men is unity and oneness with our wives.
