What deserves your time today? In this thought-provoking episode, Jesse Cope challenges us to honestly examine our priorities and consider whether our actions align with what we claim to value most. Are we pouring ourselves into people or things? Are we truly making God and our relationships our highest priorities?Through a heartfelt exploration of Revelation 22, Jesse emphasizes Jesus's repeated declaration "I am coming quickly" and unpacks its significance for believers today. The message is clear: our time is limited, and how we spend it matters eternally. When we choose distractions over devotion, we miss opportunities that will never return.Jesse shares a poignant reflection on parenting and grandparenting, noting how quickly seasons of life pass and how often we realize too late the value of time spent with loved ones. "Every time we miss an opportunity to love somebody, that particular opportunity is gone forever," he reminds us, applying this principle especially to marriage relationships where daily choices either strengthen or weaken our most intimate bonds.The episode takes a fascinating historical turn as Jesse discusses the spiritual foundations of America, revealing that 34% of our founders' quotes came directly from the Bible—far more than any other source. He announces a new series exploring the sermons that shaped our founding generation, beginning with Ezra Stiles' 1783 address "The United States Elevated to Glory and Honor." This historical perspective illuminates a profound truth: "There's a direct correlation between our success, our liberty, our safety, and our willingness to follow God and Jesus Christ."Current events aren't ignored, as Jesse examines concerning reports about Chinese scientists arrested for biowarfare threats and the troubling decline in America's educational standards. These contemporary challenges make our return to founding principles all the more urgent.Ready for a spiritual wake-up call that connects personal faith to national renewal?

The email said, “I talked my spouse into going to therapy.” Another one asked, “How do I drag my spouse to therapy?” Oof. The first person was proud of the “convincing.” The second person got my response: You Don't! (Unless, of course, you want to damn the process from the very beginning… and in that case, drag away!) Marriage therapy tends to be the default response to a marriage crisis (although the stats would not support this as the preferred action). If there is a problem, time to head to therapy! First task: get a spouse there. By pressure, if necessary. I think there is a (false) belief that if you can just get them there, the therapist will work some magic and convince the spouse to work on the marriage. The therapist won't/can't. And your spouse won't. Fail/fail. But why? There are some Therapy Traps that you fall into when you try to drag a spouse into therapy (I cover the Traps in the podcast episode below). And in the process, you actually cause further entrenchment on the part of your spouse that things won't work out. Yep, it makes things worse. I explain why in this episode of the Save The Marriage Podcast.  Listen below. RELATED RESOURCES Therapy Problems Can You Save It Alone? Can Your Marriage Even Be Saved?

One of my favorite t-shirts in the Merch Store at DrLaura.com reads, “You Picked Him. Stop Picking on Him!” It's something I say to callers a lot. Mostly to women who tell me that they can just no longer live with their husband's bad habits, insensitivities, lack of ambition and such. I always ask, “When did you first notice these negative behaviors?” Followed by, “Did your mother, sister, best friend – anyone point these red flags out to you?” More likely than not, the behaviors existed before the marriage and the children. More likely than not, someone pointed out the potential for a problem. Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.comFollow me on social media:Facebook.com/DrLauraInstagram.com/DrLauraProgramYouTube.com/DrLauraJoin My Family!!Receive my Weekly Newsletter + 20% off my Marriage 101 course & 25% off Merch!

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Annuities for your spouse and loved ones  Throwing darts at death  Planning for cognitive decline  Filling in financial gaps   Key Takeaways:  Using a trust, you can set up an immediate annuity purchase to trigger when you pass away to provide lifetime income for your spouse using a designated lump sum. You can use annuities to lovingly handcuff your young beneficiaries, providing them with guaranteed income instead of a lump sum.  Buying an income rider, deferring it out, and setting it up as a joint-life policy is like throwing darts at death because you don't know when you're going to die. Death is not a good strategy.  The problem with planning for something for your spouse in case of cognitive decline is that you don't know when you will have cognitive decline, especially if you are already in cognitive decline.  You can set up a plan that will fill in financial gaps that your spouse can enjoy when you pass away, and it can be set up so that your death triggers it. However, you can also throw some calculated, contractual darts if that's what you prefer.    "Now, while you're alive, if there's something like a pension or something that's going to be reduced upon your death, we should start planning upon your death to replace that gap for your spouse. That can be done at the time of your death - it can be triggered by your death. Or we could throw some calculated contractual darts.
