Marriage Musts #16 Priorities - Don't Bring Work Home

Wow! This is a tough one. It seemed to be a lot easier before we were pastors and lived in a parsonage and worked at the school. When we lived in the Dallas Fort Worth area, we had this 30 minute to and hour commute. During this time, as we drove home, we would discuss what happened during the work day...our struggles, frustrations and our triumphs. Sometimes we would go out to eat and continue discussing (especially if it had been a particularly trying day). We would not discuss it at home. Home is sacred. It is your fortress of solitude, a place to escape. It can be difficult to do this in our current line of work, but we try to make sure that we keep things in the proper perspective. Try to keep your home a home of peace.
