5 keys to truly connecting with your spouse

1. Never deceive your spouse. Secrets and lies are the enemies of intimacy. Transparency, honesty and vulnerability are vital to healthy communication and building your marriage on a foundation of trust.

There should never be hidden bank accounts, secret text messages, private passwords or anything else that puts a wedge of secrecy into your marriage. Your level of intimacy will be determined by your level of transparency, honesty and trust. The original picture of marriage was one of “nakedness” which doesn’t just represent physical nakedness and sex, but it also represents this idea that true intimacy is born out of transparency, vulnerability and trust.
