Book review: Things I wish I'd known before we got married
For many couples in relationship, spirituality is an unexplored topic. They simply assume that this area of life will take care of itself after marriage. Others who openly discuss matters of spirituality often ignore the warning signs. They are so in love with each other, enjoy being with each other, and can use themselves making each other happy for the rest of their lives, and they close their eyes to huge differences in their lives, and they close their eyes to huge differences in their views of spirituality.
Jill and Matt, the couple we met at the beginning of this chapter, eventually discovered spiritual intimacy. After several counseling sessions in which I helped them listen to the heart of the other person and try to understand how important this issue is to them, they were able to affirm each other's concerns and become friends instead of enemies.
Once they moved from an adversarial relationship to a relationship to a friendship where two people were trying to understand each other and solve a conflict rather than win an argument, the resolution became rather easy.
