In this episode, we review "Preparing for Marriage" and recap how this book helped us prepare for the meaning of marriage during a season when it's often overlooked.

Preparing for marriage requires more than planning a wedding - it demands intentional investment in your relationship's foundation through continuing education, spiritual growth, and honest conversations about expectations.

• Biblical blueprint for marriage including finances, roles, and expectations
• Servant leadership transforms how husbands can lead by serving their wives
• Understanding submission as a willing, loving choice rather than loss of identity
• Importance of tackling premarital counseling early in engagement before wedding planning takes over
• Prayer and Bible study create spiritual intimacy that strengthens marriage
• Parents questionnaire opens communication with both families before marriage
• Fighting fair is a crucial skill that develops over time
• Marriage preparation should include ministry preparation for Christian couples

In this episode, we talk about what happens when the Holy Spirit makes you uncomfortable.

Have you ever felt the nudge of the Holy Spirit pushing you out of your comfort zone, only to find yourself resisting?

Join us as we share heartfelt and humorous tales of navigating these spiritual promptings, from moments where we've had to be the bigger person in tough situations to the laughter-filled adventures of unconventional illness remedies. We reflect on how these experiences have strengthened our faith and relationships, inviting you to continue engaging with us through your questions and feedback.

Our gratitude for the overwhelming support on our Holy Spirit series is immense, and we're excited to offer resources like the vision casting calendar to help integrate spiritual guidance into your life's journey.

Our stories include personal experiences of delivering prophetic words and the humility required to convey them. We also confront the ongoing struggle with self-control and humility, sharing how the Holy Spirit has guided us to choose patience and love over sharp retorts within our families. Through these reflections, we hope to encourage you to lean on spiritual guidance as you navigate your own path of personal growth and relationship building when following the Holy Spirit gets a bit uncomfortable.
