We reflect on a blog post written by Andrea from a few years ago...realizing it's actually relevant in both our lives today! Take some time to think about the things in your "bags" that you let interfere in your relationship with God? What "bags" do you need Him to carry for you?

Despite changes in your relationships there's still a responsibility to remain captivated to one another. Join us as we share a little bit of our devotion from Marjorie Holmes, titled "The Good Days of Marriage". This devotion helped us to remember the early days of being attracted to one another and how to be reminded of the good days in spite of the tough times! 

Thank you to our sponsor, Jen Evans at Jenauri's Vegan Bakery!...

We wanted to continue our discussion about responsibility vs. accountability. Do you really understand the difference between the two? Often times these roles can be misunderstood in any relationship. Join us as we share from our personal perspective. We're positive that you're able to relate!

We briefly discuss handling our daughter's first day of Kindergarten and all the excitement surrounding it! We also discuss situations where there may be a lack of communication, lack of leadership, lack of responsibility and accountability. At times, it seems there's always, anybody, everybody, and somebody to blame when nobody handled the responsibility! Ever been there? Join us for the discussion!

If you didn't catch it in the first episode.....we're both twins. That's right Derick is a fraternal twin and Andrea is an identical twin!

In this episode we answer the top frequently asked questions most twins receive. We also discuss comparisons people tend to make among twin siblings and whether or not either of us have ever pulled a prank with our twin! Guess which one of us pulled a prank for the history books!
