Getting on the Same Page as Your Spouse Regarding Finances

Money is one of the biggest issues that most couples argue over.  Perhaps it’s because of fear that I want more in the bank account.  Or maybe it’s because I really want to buy those cute shoes to go with my new outfit.  Whether I’m a saver or a spender, more likely than not, my husband is not always going to share my same viewpoint.

If we’re not mindful to deal with this issue in our marriage, the topic of money can tear down our one flesh union. Our love story could quickly turn into a battleground of me verses he.  All because of money.

So, what’s a wife to do?  How do you go about getting on the same page as a couple?

Scripture reference:

Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion. Romans 12:16

“And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.” Mark 3:25 (NKJV)

Similarly, a family splintered by feuding will fall apart. Mark 3:25 (NLT)
