Get to know Beau and Shanna! Like them on Facebook or email them at iamtruthandlove@gmail.com On this episode of the I Am Truth and Love podcast, Beau and Shanna discuss the idea of "falling in love." If you "fall in love" you can "fall out of love".  If your base of your marriage is infatuation and the measurement of "falling in love" you can become vulnerable to falling apart. Marriage takes work and the decision to love in sickness and in health. It doesn't matter where you are at in your marriage, if you use infatuation as a tool rather than the foundation to get the spark back. If both partners are willing, you can get the love back, the infatuation back with some work and intentionality.
