Our Newest Book Is Here—And You’ll Love the Story of How This Happened!

Last updated on: March 3, 2020 at 10:39 am By Shaunti Feldhahn

Today’s the day! We are so excited to announce our latest research-based book! Jeff and I finally tackled that issue that causes issues in SO many marriages: MONEY. The book is Thriving in Love & Money: 5 Game-Changing Insights about Your Relationship, Your Money, and Yourself—and as many of you might guess, we’re tackling it in a very different way. We don’t discuss budgeting, getting out of debt or money management. Instead, it’s all about how to have a great... Read more

Why Do We Buy Into The Superwoman Myth?

Last updated on: February 28, 2020 at 8:05 pm By Shaunti Feldhahn

Every few months, it seems, we head to the movies for the latest adventures of our favorite superheroes. (We will admit that the Feldhahn clan falls into the Marvel mega-fan category.) When our son was six, his superhero of choice was Superman. He wore the capes, his action figures littering the floor of our playroom. But one day he suddenly felt like he was old enough to ask us the question he must have known the answer to: “Is Superman real?”... Read more

4 Ways to Make Your Child’s Day

Last updated on: February 21, 2020 at 11:50 am By Shaunti Feldhahn

Believe it or not, the answer is not announcing, “A free day off school!” (Although I’m sure that would work too!) The answer is far more subtle—and much more profound. There is so much going on in your child’s head and heart that they find hard to explain, and which is SO easy for us to miss. And yet once you take these simple steps it speaks volumes to them. (This is especially the case if they are teens or... Read more

Marriages CAN Be Happy For A Lifetime!

Last updated on: February 14, 2020 at 12:35 pm By Shaunti Feldhahn

Last weekend, watching the Super Bowl, I was struck by two things: First, of course, is that my childhood football team won! (I was born in Kansas City, and even though I didn’t grow up there, my Grandpa had season tickets to the Chiefs. I eagerly went every chance I got!) But second, during the commercials (which I watched with just as much interest as the game), there were a lot of heart-warming moments. Not just funny or edgy—but truly,... Read more

Follow This One Simple Rule to Improve Your Relationship

Last updated on: February 1, 2020 at 12:41 pm By Shaunti Feldhahn

If (like most people) you made some New Year’s resolutions this year, maybe one of them had to do with improving your relationship with your spouse. Wanting to love the most important person in our life well and “do better” in our marriage is a noble thing. But you’ve probably already discovered that moving from the goal (“I’m going to be sweet to my man 24/7”) to the reality (“Is this your towel on the bathroom floor? Again?”) isn’t easy. ...

Mystery Solved: 3 Things You Never Understood About How Your Wife Thinks

Last updated on: January 31, 2020 at 6:48 pm By Shaunti Feldhahn

It’s funny. When Jeff and I speak at marriage conferences, or when I speak at women’s events, it is extremely common for a man to come up to us with a particular LOOK in his eyes as he is about to open his mouth to say something. It is hard to describe the look, but when I see it, I know exactly what he is going to say. The look is part grateful, part absolutely bemused and part the look... Read more

Lessons From A Lost Love Note

Last updated on: January 21, 2020 at 7:44 pm By Shaunti Feldhahn

My friend was browsing at a Goodwill outside Atlanta, when she spotted a book (Really Bad Girls of the Bible) she had been wanting to read. Later, imagine her surprise when she saw a short note from the previous owner, tucked carefully between the pages. Except… it wasn’t from the owner, but the previous owner’s husband. It wasn’t long, just 7 sentences. And it was stumbling and awkward in spots. But it was clearly one average husband’s attempt to put into... Read more

A Tribute to An Amazing Father – And a Note of Thanks to ALL the Caring Fathers Out There.

Last updated on: January 6, 2020 at 7:09 pm By Shaunti Feldhahn

Today would have been my precious father’s 77th birthday. Two weeks before Christmas, my Mom held him and my brother and I held his hands, as God brought him Home. I am missing him and thinking about him so much today – especially about what an incredible gift that I’ve been given in my Dad. What a gift so many of us have been given in our amazing, imperfect, loving, hard-working, strong, caring Dads. Guys, you may not feel like... Read more
