Ted and Ashleigh SlaterHow to Respond When Your Spouse Loads the Dishwasher Wrong
June 18, 2024 ● 21 minShare this episode
Do you and your spouse approach daily tasks or responsibilities differently? Maybe it’s how you load the dishwasher, fold laundry, or even where you cut your toenails. As couples, sometimes, it’s easy for us to assume our way is the right way and seek to change each other. In this episode, we discuss how to work through the annoyance and loss of control you may feel when your spouse’s way of doing things differs from yours.
2 Practical Ways to Honor God with Your Responses
- Let go of your need to control.
- Stop and thank God for your spouse.
Us Time Challenge
Think of a task or responsibility your spouse tackles very differently from you. What can you appreciate from the way they approach it? What’s one way you can express that appreciation to them?

A Prayer to Be Less Sad Today - Your Daily Prayer - September 7
The greatest cure and medicine for sadness and all the feelings it may lead to is the Word of God. The Word of God seeps into dry and lonely places and fills them. The more you drink from the Word of God and even digest it, the more your soul is saturated, and the more your sadness leaves you.
