    Simple Ways to Improve Your Marital Communication

    Date: Mar 6, 2026

    Guests: Dr. Ken Wilgus

    In this winsome presentation, Dr. Ken Wilgus uses stories from Genesis to convey a fundamental truth: most men want to feel adequate, and most women seek connection. He explains how this difference tends to block clear communication, and offers advice to improve how we express ourselves to our spouse. He points out that marriage can take some work, but that it is the most important relationship aside from our relationship with the Lord.
