Open Bathroom Policy, Stopping Birth Control "Cold Turkey" & Idolizing One's Spouse | ACW269

Questions answered this episode: My husband and I have 4 children 7 years old and under. We have unintentionally adopted an open door bathroom policy in our home. Is there an age where this would cease to be appropriate? I’m entering the Church this easter but my husband is not. I want to honor him but I also want to step into what I believe God wants for us and our fertility. How do I have this conversation with my husband? Do I just stop birth control “cold turkey”? What does idolizing one’s spouse actually look like?
