Love Acts Even Without Understanding
From Doing Marriage Well · 1:46
Show by paulb5d
Paul explores his wife’s insight that marriages would improve if partners listened to and simply did what their spouse asked, even before fully understanding the reasons behind it. He explains that seeking to understand can delay loving action because people differ in motives and ways of feeling heard or safe; a better response is to say, “I’ll do that," and stay curious afterward. Brief personal note: the episode ran a day late after finishing chores, and Lori’s surgery follow-up was good — she’s recovering and grateful for the prayers.
