A Framework Rooted in Scripture
"Let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak..." – James 1:19
Godly communication starts with listening well, and this tool helps you do exactly that. The layout guides you through four essential areas of marital connection:
1. How I Feel Before This Talk
Begin by checking in with your own heart. Are you calm? Stressed? Grateful? Disconnected? This section helps you approach your spouse with self-awareness and honesty. It helps create emotional honesty before the conversation even begins.
2. What I Appreciate About You
Gratitude transforms marriages. This space invites you to notice the good, celebrate your spouse's strengths, and speak life into your relationship, even in difficult seasons. Train yourself to look for what's right instead of focusing only on what's wrong.
3. Where We Need Alignment
Every marriage has areas that need attention. This section provides gentle prompts to identify needs, own your part, and address unresolved issues with grace and truth. Create a space for honest conversation without blame or defensiveness.
4. Spiritual Unity
Your marriage is a three-cord strand—you, your spouse, and Christ. This final section focuses on prayer and shared spiritual goals, anchoring your relationship in eternal purposes. It keeps your marriage centered on Christ, not just on yourselves.
How to Use This Notepad
For Weekly Marriage Check-Ins:
Set aside 20-30 minutes each week to sit down together. Each spouse fills out their own sheet, then you share and discuss. This creates a rhythm of intentional connection that strengthens your bond.

When tensions rise, this structured format helps you move from reactive arguments to productive conversations rooted in understanding.

Bring this notepad along to deepen your time together. The prompts spark meaningful dialogue that goes beyond surface-level small talk.
For Personal Reflection:
Even if your spouse isn't ready to participate, you can use this tool for your own growth by examining your heart, identifying patterns, and praying for your marriage.
For Building Gratitude:
The "What I Appreciate About You" section trains you to notice the good in your spouse, which transforms your perspective over time.
For Spiritual Partnership:
The "Spiritual Unity" section helps you pray together and pursue shared goals by building a marriage that reflects Christ.
Tuck It Anywhere:
Keep it on your nightstand for bedtime conversations. Store it in your kitchen for coffee-time check-ins. Bring it to date nights. The portable size fits seamlessly into your marriage rhythm.
