The Power Of Understanding Your Parent’s Origin Story

All music tells a story, so when Shalamar sang the words of their 1970s hit "Second Time Around," they already seemed to know our union's story. The Second Time Around Podcast is a testament to God's grace, mercy, and second chances at love. From blending our families to learning from each other's experiences to create our family. We've learned how to make it work by laughing and loving our way through it all. But we've learned from Act II that faith, patience, and grace can make all the difference in marriage. In this first episode, LaShan shares his origin story and how, as a pastor and marriage counselor, he draws on his unique life experiences to offer perspective on longevity in marriage. We'll look at how LaShan's experience of growing up in the Bay Area in the late 70s and 80s shaped his view of the world while sharing how his family offered beautiful examples of life and marriage that have served us on this journey.
