Having a baby changes everything, but those nine months give us an opportunity to prepare for more than just the baby. They give us time to prepare our marriage, our home, our finances, our relationships, and ourselves. In this episode, we talk honestly about our experience with infertility, pregnancy, becoming parents, and the lessons we learned along the way.

We explain why marriage creates a new family and why clear boundaries with parents and in laws are essential. Through personal stories and audience questions, we discuss sexual sin and shame, wise counsel, remarriage, dating nonbelievers, and pursuing relationships with courage and integrity. Ultimately, we show how lasting marriages are built on faith, friendship, service, repentance, and a shared vision rather than attraction alone.

In this episode, I sit down with my family to talk honestly about Christian dating and preparing for marriage. We break down the biggest red flags to avoid, from hidden sin and spiritual immaturity to isolation and casual dating without direction. We share what men and women should work on before entering a serious relationship and why faith, community, and intentionality matter. Our goal is to help you recognize marriage material, avoid the wrong relationships, and build a godly marriage from the start.

In this episode, we challenge the belief that homeownership is out of reach for Gen Z. We explain how inflation, leverage, equity, disciplined spending, and long term ownership can make real estate a powerful tool for building wealth and establishing a family legacy.

Is being an overweight husband merely a health issue, or can it reveal gluttony, idleness, and a lack of biblical self-control?

The church has been silent about the one thing that is destroying marriages.Daniel Golding — senior pastor of one of the fastest growing churches in America — is done being quiet about it.The culture is coming after your kids aggressively and the veil is completely off. They are not hiding it anymore. And while the world is more than happy to have every conversation that makes Christians uncomfortable, the church keeps its mouth shut on the things that matter most.Sex. Money. Politics. The hard stuff.Here's the truth nobody in church is saying — Christians should be having the BEST sex lives in the world. God wrote an entire book of the Bible on it. Pastors should probably teach on it.The bedroom is a microcosm of your entire marriage. You cannot have a healthy marriage without a healthy sex life and you cannot have a healthy sex life without a healthy marriage.And a wife who is a sexual blessing to her husband? That is one of the greatest ways to protect your marriage. Period.The conversations the church refuses to have are the exact conversations the world is more than happy to fill in for you. It's time to change that.Drop a 🔥 if your church needs to hear this.
