💛 “Have you been making more withdrawals than deposits lately?” - SEPTEMBER 2025 Marriage Monthly

In this month’s episode of Marriage Monthly, we’re unpacking a powerful truth: your marriage is like a bank account. Every word, action, and attitude is either a deposit that builds connection—or a withdrawal that creates distance.

Whether you’re feeling drained or full of love, this episode will help you become more intentional about the way you invest in your spouse. Through laughs, vulnerable stories, and practical encouragement, we’ll explore how to reset the balance and love generously, just as Christ has loved us.

🧠 Discover:

• What counts as a relational “deposit” or “withdrawal”
• How unmet expectations can silently erode intimacy
• The biblical connection between forgiveness and fullness
• Why speaking the truth in love matters
• How your love language shapes your emotional “balance”
• Why the source of your deposits must be the Lord
• What to do when you feel like you’re giving more than you’re getting
