Lingering fosters a sense of intimacy and emotional closeness, enhancing marital satisfaction and overall well-being. Ultimately, the practice of lingering in marriage is not only about savoring the present moment but also about building a future together based on shared experiences, mutual support, and enduring love.

Mon, 08 Jan 2024 - 33min - 161 - A New Year, A New Us - Marriage Talk Podcast
Welcome to the Marriage Talk Podcast - Ep 162- A New Year, A New Us
Embarking on a new year as a couple presents a wonderful opportunity for growth and connection. One impactful way to set the tone for the coming months is by choosing a "word for the year" together. This can be a single word that encapsulates a shared aspiration or focus for your relationship. Whether it's "balance," "communication," or "adventure," selecting a word provides a guiding principle that both partners can rally around.
Regularly discussing and reflecting on this word throughout the year can foster a sense of unity and purpose, helping you navigate challenges and celebrate victories as a team. In addition to choosing a word for the year, starting off on a positive note involves spiritual and emotional bonding. Reading a devotional together can be a meaningful and intimate way to strengthen your spiritual connection as a couple. It provides an opportunity for shared reflection, prayer, and a deeper understanding of each other's beliefs.
This shared practice can also bring a sense of peace and stability to your relationship, acting as an anchor during life's inevitable storms. Consider selecting a devotional that resonates with both of you, and set aside dedicated time each day or week to engage in this enriching and grounding activity together.
To further invest in your relationship, consider attending a marriage retreat as part of your new year strategy. A marriage retreat offers a focused and intentional environment for couples to connect, communicate, and learn valuable skills.
Whether it's a weekend getaway or a longer program, these retreats provide a chance to step away from the demands of daily life and prioritize your relationship. Engaging in workshops, discussions, and activities designed to strengthen marriages can rejuvenate your connection and equip you with practical tools for navigating the complexities of married life.
Additionally, seeking the guidance of a marriage coach can be a transformative step. Signing up for marriage coaching allows you to work with a trained professional who can offer personalized insights, communication strategies, and guidance tailored to your unique relationship dynamics. This proactive approach demonstrates a commitment to ongoing growth and ensures that you and your partner have the support needed to navigate the journey of marriage successfully.

Mon, 30 Oct 2023 - 33min - 153 - Greg and Erin Smalley - A Special Conversation at Grand Hotel
Welcome to the Marriage Talk Podcast - Ep 154 - Greg and Erin Smalley - A Special Conversation at Grand Hotel
During the October "Celebrate Your Marriage Conference" at Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island, our keynote speakers were Greg and Erin Smalley from Focus on the Family. What a pleasure it was to sit down with them for an extended conversation about marriage, relationship repair, and so much more!
Dr. Greg Smalley serves as the vice president of Marriage and Family Formation at Focus on the Family. In this role, he develops and oversees initiatives that prepare individuals for marriage, strengthen and nurture existing marriages and help couples in marital crises.
Prior to joining Focus, Smalley worked for the Center for Relationship Enrichment at John Brown University and as president of the National Institute of Marriage. He is the author of 17 books including “Fight Your Way to a Better Marriage,” “The DNA of Parent and Teen Relationships” and “The Whole-Hearted Marriage.” He and his wife, Erin, co-created “Ready to Wed,” a complete premarital curriculum for engaged couples and the online Focus on Marriage Assessment. They also released “Crazy Little Thing Called Marriage: 12 Secrets to a Lifelong Romance” in 2016.
Smalley’s passion for marriage began as a young boy. He is the son of the late Dr. Gary Smalley, a family counselor, president and founder of the Smalley Relationship Center and author of 40 books on marriage. Smalley regularly attended his father’s conferences and absorbed the importance of marriage. He frequently had people come up to him at events and say, “Your dad saved my marriage.”
Smalley knew early in his career that he wanted to be more hands-on in helping couples. After receiving his doctorate at the Rosemead School of Psychology at Biola University in Southern California and a counseling degree from Denver Seminary, he and Erin led intensive marriage seminars around the world and trained pastors, professionals and lay leaders on how to effectively work with married and engaged couples.
Married since 1992, Greg and Erin live in Colorado with their three daughters, Taylor, Murphy and Annie, and their son, Garrison. Smalley brings at least one child to every age-appropriate event, exposing them to the crucial role marriage plays in the family and society.
The Smalleys – who with help overcame their own struggles early on – make a point to study a marriage book together every Christmas.

Wed, 19 Sep 2018 - 06min - 77 - Major Announcement from The Marriage Doctor Podcast
MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT: The Marriage Doctor Podcast is taking a break for the month of September as we retool and relaunch under a new name – Marriage Talk Ministries. Why would we do something like that? The short story is, we were made aware of some name confusion with another person who also uses the title “Marriage Doctor,” and we’ve been asked to stop using it. There’s much more to the story but the bottom line is that Terry and I both believe the Lord is presenting us with an opportunity to keep going…but with a new name, website, and some fresh features that will make our podcast and overall ministry even better. Our fresh start will introduce some new features, like a listener hotline to call in questions, more interactive website with expanded written teaching from Terry about specific topics, and much more. All of the Marriage Dr Podcasts we’ve produced since the start of 2017 will still be available for free during this time of transition and then those episodes will move over to the new website currently under construction. We’ll be back soon with the all new “Marriage Talk Podcast” and website…and hope you’ll be with us as well!
