POPULARITY
For the vast majority of us, the biggest problem in our marriages is pride. James says that God "opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble." Marriage is a context in which we express Christ's love for one another through mutual submission. Join us as Gary Thomas kicks off our new marriage series, "First Comes Love, Then Comes Baggage!"
A Delaware man is accused of running a person over in cold blood, and you'll never guess why he did it. In Texas, a man was convicted and sentenced regarding the death of his wife of only four months back in early 2023. An Ohio man once accused of killing his three young children takes a plea deal in a shocking twist.
When it comes to dream I'd Rather Be Reading guests—I'm talking about names at the top of the vision board—Emily Giffin would be right there at the apex. Yes, this is a nonfiction books podcast, but I do read fiction from time to time, and one fiction author whose books I never miss is Emily Giffin, my No. 1 favorite fiction writer of all time. I actually met Emily at a book signing in the summer of 2016 in Nashville—at Draper James, Reese Witherspoon's boutique—and Emily changed my life. At that time, I was freelance writing some, but hadn't yet taken the leap to become a full-time writer. During the book signing, I mentioned something about wanting to be a writer to Emily, and even though lines at book signings move pretty quickly, she took a moment to give me words of wisdom I never forgot—and signed my book and told me to not give up and to keep writing. The next year, 2017, I became a full-time writer, and am now a senior editor at a major fashion magazine as we speak here in 2024. It's really incredible what one inspiring encounter can do—and Emily, I loved you before meeting you in 2016, and I loved you even more after. Actually, I'll get to see Emily again in person this week, at a book signing in Atlanta for Emily's latest, The Summer Pact, her twelfth novel—which is the book we're talking about on the show today. The title of the book is so powerful, and not at all what I was expecting. Emily's latest is full of so many plot twists, and, while many of her books focus on love and romance, the crux of this book is friendship—although, don't get me wrong, there's still definitely some love and romance in here. As I tell Emily in our conversation, I think The Summer Pact is her bravest and most courageous work; she tackles some heavy-hitting topics here, topics she's never tackled before in any of her books prior. In this book we meet Lainey, Tyson, Summer, and Hannah, who all arrive at college from completely different worlds. They soon become a tight group of friends, but, as graduation nears, tragedy strikes, and they make a promise to one another in that moment to always be there for each other, no matter how much distance or circumstance separates them. Then, a decade later, life turns upside down for one of our characters. She calls in her closest friends, who are all in the midst of their own crossroads. But they made a promise, and they all come together to embark on a shared journey of self-discovery, forgiveness, and acceptance, with, as I said, so many twists and turns along the way, including a trip to Capri, Italy, which has risen to the top of my travel bucket list. Just like I had a different career before I became a full-time writer, so did Emily—after graduating from Wake Forest and the University of Virginia School of Law, Emily was a practicing attorney for several years before moving to London to write full-time. Since then, 12 novels followed—Something Borrowed, which was turned into a feature film with Ginnifer Goodwin and Kate Hudson; Something Blue; Baby Proof; Love the One You're With; Heart of the Matter; Where We Belong; The One and Only; First Comes Love; All We Ever Wanted; The Lies That Bind; Meant to Be; and, now, The Summer Pact. I am such a fan, and I can't wait for you to hear our conversation. The Summer Pact by Emily Giffin

Marriage is a journey that extends far beyond the wedding day, encompassing all the moments that follow. It's a shared adventure that requires both partners to be fully committed, not just halfway. This commitment is the bedrock upon which a godly marriage is built, and it's essential for navigating the ups and downs of life together.

Marriage is a divine design, intended to be a lifelong union between one man and one woman. This commitment is not to be entered into lightly, but with the full intention of leaving all others to cleave solely to one's spouse. The act of leaving and cleaving sets the foundation for a marriage that honors God and reflects His purpose for our lives.
Dad Stories: a multi-generational podcast about childhood and growing-up
This episode continues the discussion about events that led us to becoming an Adult or, more accurately, becoming more like an adult. From when we were in our twenties going into the thirties, we both experienced a lot of growth based on being exposed to ‘adult life'. In this episode, we discuss topics centered around family situations such as partners, marriage and babies. We take a look at some of our more enlightening experiences as well as some sad and somewhat tragic experiences that come with married life and the culture of married life, buying a house, seeking parents' permissions for marriage, the why, when, and what of having a baby including risks of pregnancy, and when does a baby go from being an ‘it' to being your child. These topics are raised from the point of personal experience and not one that covers every aspect of every topic. While this episode does contain some more serious topics it follows the spirit of openness, compassion and, in some cases, curiosity.

The enemy's pattern of deception, accusation, and condemnation is designed to trap us in guilt and shame. However, Jesus offers a way out through His grace, which is not a license to continue in sin but a call to a transformed life. When we encounter Jesus, we find not only forgiveness but also empowerment to live a life of purity.
The pursuit of a love relationship with Christ is the ultimate journey we undertake, and it mirrors the pursuit of a romantic relationship in its passion and commitment. Just as the couple in the Song of Solomon eagerly seeks one another, we too should seek Christ with fervor and anticipation, overcoming any obstacles that stand in our way.
The pursuit of a godly relationship must be intentional and respectful, mirroring Solomon's approach to his beloved. Just as he led with clarity and honor, so too should we approach dating with a clear purpose and a heart that seeks to uplift the other.
In our journey through the Song of Solomon, we delve into the essence of relationships, singleness, dating, marriage, and intimacy. Yet, the foundation of all these is our relationship with Jesus Christ.

In our journey through life, we often encounter various seasons, and one such season is that of singleness. Singleness is not a burden, but rather a blessing, a unique opportunity bestowed upon us by God. It is a time characterized by freedom and the absence of certain anxieties that accompany marital life. The Apostle Paul, in his letters, emphasizes the value of singleness, highlighting the advantages it offers in serving the Lord without distraction.
