Truth Over Triumph: Choosing What Love Celebrates

In a world that often cheers for “wins” at any cost, what does it mean for love to rejoice in truth instead of injustice? In this deeply honest episode, Rachel and Ron unpack what 1 Corinthians 13:6 means for real marriages—especially when trust has been broken or past baggage threatens to repeat itself.

They share personal stories of how concealing small truths—even with good intentions—can create division, and how choosing truth brings unity and healing. You’ll hear how past relationship trauma can fuel unhealthy patterns, and how surrendering to God’s truth reshapes how we love each other.

Through Scripture, humor, and practical wisdom, this episode will encourage you to become a couple that celebrates honesty, embraces vulnerability, and fights for truth in every season of marriage.

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.
• Proverbs‬ ‭24‬:‭17‬ ‭NLT‬‬ - “Don’t rejoice when your enemies fall; don’t be happy when they stumble.”
• John‬ ‭8‬:‭32‬ ‭NLT‬‬ - “And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

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.
