Negotiating Romance & Partnership

June 21, 2021

What’s a wedding, without a honeymoon! Did you ever notice blended family couples don’t get a honeymoon? They get a few days together after the wedding but they don’t get time together before kids come along. Deuteronomy 24 affirms that couples need time to bond and establish their home. But stepfamily couples don’t get that. Instant family means instant responsibilities. They negotiate romance and partnership at the same time. It is what it is. Work at this. Be intentional. It’s harder to solidify your marriage but you can do this.
