Marriage is hard. It’s beautifully rewarding, but having a connected marriage doesn’t just happen. It takes a whole lot of choosing and intentionality between two people who are willing to lay down their lives for the other. We came into marriage with baggage of our own that we had to work through in order to build the marriage we have today. Join us for a two-part episode that we recorded when we spoke at an arts academy for creatives here in town. We get real, raw, and honest about marriage, pain, healing, triggers, and so much more!

Having kids has been one of the greatest blessings in our marriage!

Your time, energy, and emotional capacity are not just reserved for your spouse anymore so you have to be intentional about making space for each other. Here’s an honest conversation about what it looks like for us to stay connected in our marriage with small kids.

If you were to have seen us a few weeks into our dating relationship, you would have cringed and rolled your eyes at our attempt to bring the God we both loved into our relationship. It was clunky and laughable. But it was our dream to have God be the center of everything we did in our dating relationship and into engagement and marriage. Today, we’re having an honest conversation about what it looks like to bring God into our marriage - it’s practical, humbling, insightful, and you won’t want to miss it.
