When we talk about building our marriage, building a relationship, we start to realize that it takes lots of little steps. Then, those steps start to add up. It is like the bricks that make up a house. No single brick is responsible for the house, but they need to be good bricks to provide a solid foundation and structure to the house.
It isn't always fun or glamorous, but it matters, and it adds up.
Have a listen, and let us know wh...

Welcome back as we talk about accomplishing things on our list.
We are talking about forgiveness on this episode. When we don't walk in forgiveness, we can cause a lot of pain to those around us. How would we walk if we chose to forgive first? What if that was our first thought? God does.

A statement came out in our conversation the other day - "You know, some people are trying to not get divorced, rather than wanting to be married."
So what does that look like? What does that sound like? We live in a world where it is acceptable for a marriage to look like roommates sharing a last name and having different lives. How do we break that cycle? We break it by remembering WHY we got married. We encourage each other to gr...
When Eve was talking to the snake, Adam was right there with her, listening and watching. Are we helping our spouses stay accountable, are we encouraging them, correcting them, helping them? How do we act, look, speak when we are at our spouse's elbow?

Welcome to 2026! We are expecting and hoping for great things for all of you this upcoming year!
Sometimes life doesn't quite go the way we planned. We get to choose how we react and how we prepare for what may come. When we lean into what God has for us, then we are able to handle it His way. Every day, we get to choose how we think, act, and respond to every situation, whether it's a blessing or a hardship.
We want to encourage a...
When two people get married, they get a new identity. That comes with starting a new family, new traditions, and a new culture. It might seem a bit crazy to go against tradition, especially now that it is the Holiday season of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's. This is what happens though. As a married couple, starting our own family, we had the opportunity to sit and talk about what we wanted our family traditions to look an...
Many of us know that we should be wise and discerning when it comes to allowing people to speak into our lives. It is the same with your marriage. Not everyone we meet should have access and "speaking rights" to our marriage. It is good to have a conversation with God and your spouse about who should be in your corner, and should should just visit your porch. Not everyone will be able to have the same level of trust and love for yo...
Welcome to Episode 134!
We are so excited to share our thoughts on accountability with you. What does that look like? It is a combination of what we say and do to and for each other, and so much more. Accountability is accepting responsibility for one's actions, commitments, and decisions, and being answerable for the outcomes, whether positive or negative. It involves being transparent, explaining decisions, and taking ownership of...

What's in your backpack? What are you carrying around with you from yesterday? Life is full of adventure, lessons, memories, and stress. As we go and do stuff and interact with others, we have a tendency to take bits of those moments and carry them with us. Those bits can add up to weigh us down. When we focus on God, He will tell us what we need to carry and what to drop. We get to start each day with an empty backpack. We can ch...

On this week's episode, we are talking about change. Not the change that gets to come with growth, but the change that can only happen from the Holy Spirit.
As spouses, we get to realize that we cannot change our spouse. Their personality, standards, behaviors, and attitude will be the same after the wedding as it was while you were dating. This is why it is important to decide before you get into a relationship, what you will allow...
