Is the kitchen a battleground in your marriage? In this episode, we’re dishing out three attitudes you can bring to the kitchen to turn tension over tacos into love over lasagna. If “I love you, but step away from the stove” sounds familiar, tune in to discover how to make shared cooking time a recipe for deeper intimacy.
3 ATTITUDES TO BRING TO THE KITCHEN
- Respect
- Curiosity
- Humility
TAKE THE “US TIME” CHALLENGE
Next time you cook together—or even just prep a quick lunch—try this: pick one of these three attitudes to intentionally practice. Whether it’s showing respect by biting your tongue, asking a curious question, or stepping back with humility, try it out. Then talk about how it went.

A Prayer for Peace This Easter - Your Daily Prayer - April 1
