How Do YOU Spell Love?

Guys, do you know how women spell love?

T-I-M-E.

Not just “quality time”—which often becomes a vague excuse for squeezing in the bare minimum—but a quantity of quality time. The idea isn’t simply to “check the box” of spending time together, but to give your marriage focused, intentional, undistracted time that nurtures connection, conversation, and intimacy.

Your marriage—every marriage—needs more than just a few minutes here or there. It requires a consistent quantity of quality time to thrive. Without this, even the best relationships can start to feel distant or strained. How did you do in 2024? 

Here’s the really cool thing: as we move into 2025, we get a clean slate. A fresh start. A new beginning. It’s the perfect opportunity to look ahead and decide: What do I want my relationship to look like this year? How will I actively invest in the health and happiness of my marriage?

I challenge you, right now, to resolve to give your marriage a quantity of quality time in 2025. It’s not just about making time—it’s about making the most of the time you have. The years slip by so fast, and what you put into your marriage today will shape the future you share tomorrow.

Now, this will look different for every couple. The key is consistency and intention. But if you’re wondering where to start, here’s an easy suggestion: a weekly date night.

Please, don’t just yawn and brush off the idea of a weekly date night. This isn’t some “nice-to-have” thing; it’s vital for your marriage to stay healthy, happy, and strong. A weekly date night gives you a protected time to talk, laugh, reconnect, and keep the bond between you alive and thriving.

If the only date night you have planned in the next year is February 14th (Valentine’s Day), you might be heading into troubled waters. 

So here’s a simple request: Will you do me a favor? Before this weekend is over, schedule your first date night of 2025. Just one. I’m not asking for four date nights or some elaborate plans. Just pick a night in January, block it off on the calendar, and commit to it. Will you do that?Not only for me, but for yourself. For your marriage. For the connection and intimacy you want to continue to grow in 2025. You have the power to make this year the best one yet for your relationship—but it starts with the time you choose to invest.
