Private: Staying in Love

A message by: Andy Stanley

What happens after “I do”? How can the person to whom a woman gave her deepest vow become the person she despises most? How can the beautiful woman a man couldn’t stay away from become the person he can’t stand to be around? What’s inside of you is coming out. And it’s not coming out because of who you are with, but because it was in you to begin with. If you want to stay in love, you have to pay attention to what is in there, so that you can own it. You have to have a plan to guard your heart–a plan that begins with thinking about and identifying specific emotions and then communicating them. This message dispels a common myth about why we fall “out of love” and exposes the true problem.
