#1 Cause of Divorce
Yes, the top issues couples argue about are money, sex, and parenting. But the reason they can’t resolve those arguments is because of how they argue, their values about money, selfishness, and stubbornness. So, what’s the solution? First, make sure your core values line up with God’s values. That will unify you. Then, and only then, can you tackle the logistics of financial management. For stepcouples, it can get complicated really fast. So getting specific guidance can be well worth it.
