Are You Investing in What Matters Most?

Welcome back to another edition of the Marriage Investors Blog—where we equip couples to invest wisely in their most valuable relationship: their marriage.

If you’ve been following along, you know we started this journey talking about what it means to be a Marriage Investor—someone who brings intentionality, purpose, and commitment to the covenant of marriage, just like a financial investor brings to their portfolio. Every week since, we’ve unpacked what makes a strong foundation for your relationship. This week, we’re circling back to the heartbeat of our message and introducing something special...

🎉 Our book, Forever Together: Unveiling the Keys to Lasting Marriage Connection, is AVAILABLE NOW on Amazon and Barnes & Noble!

📅 Mark your calendar: the paperback officially releases on May 6, 2025—just in time for couples who want to renew their commitment and rediscover connection this spring.

Now, let’s talk about this week’s topic...

 Are You Really Making Marriage a Priority?

Let’s be honest—most couples don’t drift apart overnight. It happens slowly, through small compromises, busy schedules, and misplaced priorities. One of the biggest lies couples believe is that "marriage will take care of itself." But here's the truth:

What you don’t intentionally invest in, you’ll eventually neglect.

Marriage Is a Sacred Investment

Matthew 6:21 says, "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." This means your heart follows your investment—time, attention, energy, and prayer. If your heart feels distant from your spouse, take a hard look at where your investment is going. Is it being drained by work, social media, children’s schedules, or stress?

Just like a financial investor sets aside time to research and adjust their investments, a Marriage Investor carves out time to check in, recalibrate, and renew their commitment to their spouse.

3 Investment Moves You Can Make This Week

1. Reevaluate Your Time Portfolio
   Where is most of your attention going this week? Compare that to how much time you’re investing in your marriage. Make one intentional change.

2. Reconnect Through Shared Prayer
   Even five minutes of prayer together a day can radically shift the emotional and spiritual atmosphere in your home.

3. Ask Your Spouse This Question:
   “What’s one area in our marriage where we could be more intentional?” Then listen. Take notes. And take action.

Why This Matters Now More Than Ever

We’re not just writing a blog—we’re launching a movement. Our book, Forever Together, is designed to walk you through seven key principles that will transform your relationship from survival mode to sacred connection. Whether you're newlyweds, empty nesters, or somewhere in between, this book gives you the tools, scriptures, and stories you need to build a lasting legacy.

Final Thought

You don’t need a perfect marriage. You need a committed one. A marriage that says: I will show up, I will invest, and I will keep learning how to love better—God’s way.

Until next week, stay the course and keep investing in what matters most.

Forever Together,
