Dare: Commit to reading the Bible every day. Find a devotional book or other resource that will give you some guidance. If your spouse is open to it, see if they will commit to daily Bible reading with you. Begin submitting each area of your life to its guidance and start building on the rock.

What parts of your life are in the greatest need of God's counsel? Where do you feel the most susceptible to failure? What are you asking God to show you through His Word? It has been quite some time since I regularly read the Word of God (other than just a chapter in Proverbs each day). I did not ask Christine to start reading the Bible together with me because, quite honestly, I am not convinced that it will be better for us than reading some of a relationship book together each day. I do, however, think it would be a good idea for us to do some sort of devotional quiet time each and every day (and keep each other accountable to it), and that is something I plan to discuss with her soon. I think she is pretty good with it already, but it will probably help if I ask her about it or something. I'm not sure. I'll have to see what she says.
