THE MARRIAGE MANIFESTO

Action Steps from Chapter 3

1. See more examples of other couples Marriage Manifestos:

"In our marriage we vow to have a life abundant in fun and joy that brings many smiles to us and our children. We make it well known to our kids and everyone we know that we prioritize each other. We travel together creating experiences and memories that last a lifetime. Personal growth is an aspect of our marriage that is crucial because, when we grow as individuals, it positively impacts our marriage directly, along with our children and friends, in hopes to be a model for them and others we meet along the way. The decision to plant God in our family is foundational for us to remember the blessings he has given us and our family and to strive to be more like Jesus every day in our lives, marriage, parenting, and every aspect of life. He is our savior, and we can put our faith in him endlessly. We support one another in every decision we make for ourselves and our family. Knowing and confirming that we are a team during any circumstances and provide unrestricted communication with each other that is vulnerable and empathetic from each person. Providing a safe, loving, and enriched environment for our family is our desire so family dysfunction is eliminated from generations before us. We strive to have great and meaningful relationships with friends to share the peaks and valleys of marriage and to do life with. Incorporating fitness and wellness into our marriage is vital to keep us healthy as long as possible for ourselves and the people most important to us. Having very intimate, sensual, and passionate sex is important to us to strengthen our bond."


We are best friends, lovers, and soul mates. Our marriage is rooted in our faith. Our family, our lives, and our marriage are intertwined with our commitment to Christ and our desire to do God’s will. Next to each other our children are the most important people in our lives and our highest priority. We love people in our lives and our highest priority. We love people and love being around our friends. We travel at least four times a year, enjoy great food, and love to have fun. We have a great sex life and constantly celebrate our ability to continue to grow and expand. We desire to be radically generous to help change the world by contributing our time and money. We have no room in our marriage for bickering, arguing and fighting. We are a team and we always have the conviction that the best is yet to come.


We cultivate love as the foundation of our relationship. We are each other’s highest priority. We prioritize each other’s needs, desires, and well-being, and express our love through words, actions, and touch. We continuously renew and deepen our bond, and never take each other or our relationship for granted. We practice open, honest, and respectful communication. We make time for sex and intimacy in our marriage. We prioritize fun, playfulness, and humor as a part of our relationship and take the time to plan outings and vacations. Our daughter is our highest priority next to our marriage and she knows how deeply loved she is, and how her parents deeply love each other. We lead by example and never settle. There is no room in our relationship for lying or cheating. These are the dealbreakers and are always avoided at all cost.
