I’ve mentioned that my sweetie and I are both reading New Morning Mercies by Paul David Tripp as a devotional. We don’t usually read it together (though we could), but we do tend to discuss it during the day if something stands out to us.

I love the exchange of ideas that comes from discussing a shared book. It puts us on the same page (pun intended) and helps us share what we believe and what God is teaching us. It’s an intimacy builder and an encouragement to grow in our walk with the Lord.

I suppose you could do the same thing with any shared experience … a book, a movie, or a vacation trip together. Talk, reflect, share what stood out to you, etc.

We had a shared experience. That makes a good marriage better. George W. Bush
