We don’t understand it when our husbands begin to change. When instead of being in church or with the family, they want to hang out with friends all night or shut themselves off in a room with their computer or phone.
We are hurt by this so we beg and plead for them to change, to go to counseling or whatever it takes, because we just want our husbands back.
However, what we are seeing is often times the outward affects of a much deeper problem concerning the heart. Today we’re chatting about spiritual warfare and how you, as his wife, can fight for your husband and your marriage.
Let’s get started.

Even the best of husbands make mistakes. Some are small and easy to overlook and forgive. But some are devastating because the hurt is deep, the commitment and trust of your marriage has been broken and you're unsure if it can ever be repaired.
We know that God tells us to forgive, but how and is it even possible to ever get past this and move forward to a happy loving marriage. I can assure you that yes, it is absolutely possible. God has done this in my marriage and he can do the same in yours.
Join me today as we look at navigating how to forgive our husbands and move forward in our marriages.

Love. We all want it in our lives. We are called by God to love others, love our husbands and our children, and to love God. But what does that really look like in our lives? What does the Bible say the meaning of love is?
Today we’re looking at what God says about love. What we are without love in our hearts, what the true meaning of love is, and how the Holy Spirit helps us to love others the way God loves us.

Best of 2023! The most popular episode of 2023 with well over 500 downloads. Whether this is a refresher or a 1st look, it's certainly worth a listen and share. Hope you enjoy!
What does it really mean to be a submissive wife? Is it to be a doormat? That you can't have your own opinion or that your life consist of being some kind of slave to your husband? Does being a submissive wife mean that you have relinquished to the fact that you are inferior in some way?
Today we're going to take a look at one of the most commonly misunderstood commandments in the Bible. What it truly means to be a submissive wife, why we fight it and how we live this commandment out in our marriages.
Pull up a chair next to mine, and let's get started.

I see so many on FB who say they are alone and have no christian friends or that their only friend is their husband. Those who are struggling in life, in their marriages, their families, or with their jobs.
Our Christian walk was never meant to be done alone. All throughout scripture God talks to us about having fellowship with other believers. And even warns us that we are actually in some pretty dangerous territory, if we try to do it on our own, without anyone to walk beside us.
In this episode we’re taking a look at what’s referred to as the “one-anothers” in the Bible, the dangers of not having christian fellowship, and how to change this by being intentional in developing relationships with a few close friends.
Let’s get started.

Being a submissive wife doesn’t mean that we must simply take everything that is thrown at us with meekness and fear. Or that we have no say in anything and cannot stand up for what is right.
God has called us, as believers, to stand firm in Christ. He has also provided us with the authority and guidance to help bring those who are falling away, back to God. This includes reproving our husbands in love and encouraging them to stay faithful to God’s Word.
This is a very delicate thing in a marriage and can cause severe problems if not done correctly or with the right motives. Today we are looking at God’s provision and instruction for wives on standing firm in the Lord and how to reprove your husband.
You'll definitely want to take some notes, so grab a pen & paper and . . .

Being a submissive wife in a difficult or unhappy marriage is just that, difficult. And certainly not what any of us thought it would be like when we dreamed of being married.
Thankfully, God is not only well aware of the sinful nature of His people, but His Word is full of wisdom as to what to do as a godly wife with a challenging husband.
Join me as we dig deeper into all that God’s Word teaches us on how to conduct ourselves to bring peace to our homes, of His complete sovereignty over our lives, and the protection that He provides for us.

There are many women who ask, “Am I still called to be submissive if my husband _____?” If my husband isn’t a believer, if he's a believer but not following God, or if I can’t trust him. What do I do then?
Most of us probably know that we are not called to be submissive if our husband asks us to sin, but what about these other scenarios? Are we still called by God to be submissive to a man who does not appear to desire to be godly or that we have lost our trust and faith in?
Join me today as we search the scriptures for answers as to how to be a submissive wife in a difficult marriage.
Let’s get started!

We all want love, affection and closeness in our marriages. We remember the way things were when we were dating or first married and want it to stay that way.
As we talked about in part 1, when this begins to change or when our marriages are not what we expected, we try to bring about change. However, we find that our efforts are not having the effect we want them to and we don’t understand why.
In this episode, we’re continuing our look at the 4 things wives do that tend to push their husbands away and what we should be doing instead.
As we did last week, I’m going to ask you to take some notes. So grab a pen and paper and let’s get started.
