Behind the Curtain with Ron: Fighting the Wrong Battles in Marriage

Ron opens up about the inner battles that nearly broke connection in his marriage — pride, passivity, and pressure to be enough. In this vulnerable solo episode, he shares how God showed him the real fight wasn’t with his wife — it was within himself. If you’ve been fighting for control instead of intimacy, this one’s for you.

Scripture References:

• 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 - “Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
• Psalms‬ ‭119‬:‭11‬ ‭NLT‬‬ - I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.
• Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭24‬-‭27‬ ‭NLT‬‬ - Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.

Remember: Marriage takes intentionality, and small actions lead to big changes! Keep God at the center, and watch your love grow deeper than ever before.
