David didn't follow Pastor Jim's rules for a happy marriage, but you can. Here they are: 1) Remove Compromise and Commit to Christ 2) Forgive the Things that happened in the past 3) Talk through reasonable ways to express love for each other for whatever season you're currently in. 4) Spend Time Together! It doesn't have to be elaborate, but simple time together is important for a healthy marriage. 5) Treat each other like you did when you were trying to win the other over. Remember, Pastor Jim has a great little book on marriage available on Amazon. Just search "Jim Gallagher" and it will pop up as "Always: A Handbook on Marriage" with Kristie Gallagher as co-author.
