Description
This easy-to-use, 52-week interactive guide empowers you and your spouse to turn your marriage dream into your marriage reality.
Do you dream of having one of "those" marriages--a marriage full of connection, trust, and laughter? A marriage that gets better year by year? Whether you've been married a few months or a few decades, the challenges of marriage--like finances, kids, grief, sex, and even everyday annoyances--might make that dream feel far away. But it doesn't have to feel that way.
After twenty-five years of marriage, Pastor Chelsea Smith knows that the best way for a marriage to thrive is by taking it one day, one decision, one conversation at a time. In "I Do" Today, she gets you and your spouse talking and growing together in life-changing ways. Each week, you'll explore a new topic through:
Short readings with real-life stories that offer validation, hope, and motivation
Reflection prompts and conversation starters that go deep without being daunting
Activity ideas to bring you closer together (and have fun along the way!)
Simple, easy-to-follow steps for strengthening your emotional and physical connection
"I Do" Today helps you and your spouse actively choose each other again and again as together, day by day, you create the marriage you've always wanted.

Reviews / Votes
'I Do' Today is an absolutely beautiful guide to marriage. I am newly married, and this was a real gift for me--it made me want to hold my husband. Chelsea's wisdom is sacred and powerful, and it spoke to my spirit. 'I Do' Today is truly special. * Ally Brooke, singer-songwriter, Fifth Harmony * Chelsea Smith has been a guiding voice in our marriage from the very beginning. Through every season--joyful, challenging, and everything in between--her wisdom, authenticity, and unwavering faith have helped shape the way Lauren and I love, communicate, and grow together. This book is a beautiful extension of who she is: honest, hope-filled, and deeply rooted in truth. If you're looking for real, practical, and powerful guidance for your relationship, this is the book you've been waiting for. * Jason Kennedy, broadcaster; television host * No marriage is easy--but Chelsea reminds us that it's well worth choosing, every single day. With honesty, vulnerability, and practical grace, she helps us walk through--not around--the real challenges that every couple faces. This devotional is a beautifully redemptive and joyful vision of what God always intended marriage (including your marriage) to be. * Carey and Toni Nieuwhof, authors; speakers *More details

Person
Chelsea Smith, along with her husband, Judah, leads Churchome, a digitally based faith community and content platform. Chelsea serves as the lead theologian for Churchome and has a master's degree in theology from Fuller Seminary. On most mornings, you can find Chelsea in her favorite chair with a cup of coffee (decaf) reading her Bible (yes, it's paper), and still--even after four decades--mesmerized by the unconditional love and relentless grace of Jesus. Undoubtedly, because of this grace, she is still madly in love with her husband of over twenty-five years, and she has raised her three kids into almost adult human beings she actually loves to be around.
