A strong, happy marriage doesn’t just happen. It takes effort. Whether you’re a newlywed or married with children, we have advice to help you strengthen your relationship and your marriage. Authors, Richard and Linda Eyre, share their top three marriage tips.

1. Paraphrase back the other person’s point before making your own.
2. Three way prayer.

1. Make time for a weekly date night.
1. Write up a “wants/needs list”
