Recommended Blogs

I read a ton of great marriage blogs. It’s hard for me to keep up with them all – there is so much good stuff!

I’ve curated a list of my favorites and listed them on this page, grouped into a few categories, with links to the three most recent posts from each included.  I count many of the bloggers represented here as friends, and they all have a proven track record of providing solid, helpful, and biblical insights.

Paul Byerly (Pictured with his wife, Lori) has two daily blogs. One for husbands and one for wives.

The Generous Wife

Lori Byerly

May I encourage y’all to consider generosity as a way of life? Aside from the good you can do, the return benefits are great. God will bless you in surprising ways and you’ll be swamped with the backwash of generosity and kindness that comes with that kind of lifestyle. Pray and practice. The more you do it, the better you get at it.
