Have you ever longed to feel more loved and cherished in your marriage? In this episode of The Worthy Wife, I’m leaning into that tender place where our hearts feel the most unmet especially as an empty nester.

When your deepest desire to be loved goes unfulfilled, it can start to wear down your self-confidence. You may catch yourself questioning who you are, or wondering if you’ll ever feel truly accepted in your marriage.

In today’s conversation, I’ll share how to steady your heart by rooting your identity in Christ. You’ll learn what it means to receive love directly from God and create boundaries of safety and peace.

This episode is for you if you’ve ever felt rejected in your marriage. You are not invisible to God. You are seen, known, and endlessly loved by Him.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
