Three Ways Healthy Couples Relate

LOVE MINISTRIES

How Connected Are We?

The Marriage Connection Checkup

Three ways to connect.
One degree better.

Here’s the game!
Each spouse rates their satisfaction in three ways of connecting. Compare your colorful results, discover what matters to each of you, and explore how to make your marriage one degree better!

Your Connection Wheels

Each wheel has three equal sections. Color fills outward from the center as satisfaction increases. The more color, the greater the satisfaction in that area.

Spouse One

My satisfaction

Spouse Two

My satisfaction

Back-to-Back
I’ve got your back! Encouragement, support, communication, and cheering each other on.
Shoulder-to-Shoulder
Let’s do life together! Friendship, fun, teamwork, activities, and shared experiences.
Face-to-Face
I want to know you! Emotional connection, heart-to-heart conversations, affection, spiritual and physical intimacy.

Rate Your Connection

Independently choose your satisfaction in each area from 0 to 10.

0 = Not satisfied at all
10 = Completely satisfied

Spouse One
Spouse Two
● Back-to-Back
● Shoulder-to-Shoulder
● Face-to-Face

Reveal & Compare!

Same marriage. Two unique perspectives! Look at your two wheels together.

1. What were you thinking about when you chose those numbers?

2. What are we already doing that contributes to your satisfaction?

3. Where would you like us to experience more connection, and what would make a difference?

Remember: Different ratings aren’t a problem to solve. They are an opportunity to understand each other. Listen to learn, not to defend.

One Degree Better!

What could we do differently this week to raise each other’s satisfaction by just ONE point?

Brainstorm together! Think of several small changes that could make a meaningful difference.

Back-to-Back

Encourage more. Check in. Show support. Celebrate wins.

Shoulder-to-Shoulder

Have more fun. Try something together. Laugh. Enjoy each other.

Face-to-Face

Share more feelings. Listen. Show affection. Grow in intimacy.

What’s one change each of you would especially appreciate?

Keep it positive, specific, and doable. These are invitations to love each other better, not demands or expectations.

Small Change. Stronger Connection.

Revisit your connection wheels next week. Celebrate any progress, and keep discovering how to love each other well!
