Never Stop Growing Together

Hey there! We had something on our hearts we thought would be good to share in a quick blog this week….

One of the most dangerous places you can find yourself in marriage is thinking, “We’ve got it all together.”

We found ourselves there for many years. By the time we hit 15 years of marriage we figured we were “good”. In reality we didn’t know that God designed our marriage for a purpose. We didn’t know the half of what it meant to build our marriage on Gods truth.

We had built our marriage on the worlds view and not on Gods view.

It may feel like a safe mindset—like you’ve made it—but the truth is, growth in marriage should be continuous, not complacent.

Marriage isn’t a destination. It’s a lifelong journey of learning, serving, forgiving, and discovering more about each other. Even after years together, there’s always something new to learn about your spouse—something deeper to uncover in how you love, lead, and live together.

Complacency can quietly creep in when routines become autopilot and communication gets surface-level. But couples who thrive don’t stop being students of one another. They stay curious, stay humble, and stay committed to pouring into each other intentionally.

You can absolutely be content in your marriage while still working to make it stronger. Being “comfortable” doesn’t mean you stop pursuing growth. In fact, it’s in those seasons of comfort that we must be even more intentional about watering the relationship.

Don’t assume you know everything there is to know. Ask more questions. Pray together. Try new things. Revisit your goals. Keep learning. Keep showing up with the mindset that there’s still more God can teach us, together.

So whether you’ve been married 6 months or 26 years—don’t stop growing. Don’t stop learning. Don’t stop loving each other with fresh eyes and renewed commitment.

Marriage isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about choosing each other daily—and growing closer, always.

We felt like this word would reach someone today. Hope it is a helpful reminder and encouragement! If it was please feel free to share this article and tell someone you know about Thrilling Marriage!
