Dealing with Differences in Marriage – Christina Faith

Marriage is hard work. The crazy thing is that so many of us have not seen healthy marriages. We’ve seen marriages that have lasted 20,30, and 40 years, but were they healthy?

A Reason We Might Be Bad At Relationships – Christina Faith

We are bombarded by so many images, quick fixes, courses, social celebs, and distractions. Everyone wants to be better, have better, and do better. We all want to excel in our arenas. I don’t know about you, but I am concerned for our society. I am concerned that we strive for the American dream (bigger houses and nicer cars). We are amazed by people who have hundreds of thousands of followers (many of them purchased their accounts and others hustled really hard).

I am concerned because we may be missing the point. The point isn’t the abundance of things and social influence as many of us are pressured into the anxiety of. I live in Philadelphia and this city has so many abandoned properties that they have created a land bank to sell off land and vacant property for $1. While at lunch with a neighbor she stated, “Philadelphia has more abandoned properties than there are homeless in the city”. I was amazed by our lack of awareness of each other. We are so concerned with our own pursuit that we have forgotten about each other.

If you can overcome doubt you can overcome anything.
