What if your family’s future could feel lighter, clearer, and more united because the foundation was already settled? We share how choosing Jesus first reframed everything—how we dated, how quickly we married, where we moved, and how we navigate conflict and calling. From missions in hard places to late-night hospitality, our story keeps circling the same truth: love that lasts is sacrificial, not self-serving.

We open Scripture to anchor love in reality, not vibes. First John 4 reminds us that love starts with God. First Corinthians 13 shows how love behaves when no one is watching—patient, kind, honest, steady. Genesis 2 calls us to leave and cleave, forming a new team. Then Ephesians 5 levels up the standard: submission as sub-mission under God’s purpose, and husbands loving like Christ by laying down pride and comfort. This is not theory. It looks like shared calendars, shared budgets, shared decisions, and the humility to say, “Let’s pray first.”

Most couples don’t crash over one big thing; they drift over a thousand unsaid words. We name the usual hotspots—sex, money, and family—and offer simple ways to talk before crisis. A premarital toolkit or a quick SWOT analysis can turn a gut feeling into a wise plan, and prayer can set pace and boundaries before a move or a purchase. We also talk about relaying a shaky foundation. It’s never too late to reset your home on Christ, rebuild trust with small acts of respect and service, and date your spouse with intention.

You’ll hear stories of contentment before marriage, a near-impossible move while pregnant, tense moments where mission and marriage had to realign, and the deep peace that only comes when your feet stand on rock. Whether single, newlywed, or decades in, our hope is the same: as you move closer to God, you’ll move closer to each other. If this encouraged you, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so more families can find a foundation that holds.
