Welcome to Your Story!Be completely humble and gentle;
be patient, bearing with one another in love.
Make every effort to keep the unity of the
Spirit through the bond of peace.
Ephesians 4:2–3
Life goes quickly. While we’re all rushing furiously to pursue our dreams of a successful career, a happy family, and a healthy body, or to get to that ineffable place of feeling as though we’ve made it, we can often miss the most precious and priceless moments that occur every day.
This journal is designed to help you and your significant other stop and notice those small moments so that you can look back and seeyour evolution as individuals and as a couple. For the next three years, you’ll embark on a daily journey to claim a few quiet moments and reflect on your life together. Some prompts might tease out your quirky side or spark friendly debate about who has better taste in music, while others will prod you to explore how each of you tends to face challenges or how you experience God and spirituality.
By responding to the prompts on these pages, together you’ll create a beautiful and wholly unique encapsulation of who you are in that moment and the ways you grew over the course of three years. Simply enter the current year in the space provided and answer one question every day—one of you responds on the gray lines and the other on the gold lines. No matter how you approach this daily practice, we hope that the three-year journey you take prompts new discussions, invites deeper connection, and brings you closer together.
