In Episode 97 of the Operation Thriving Marriage Podcast, Bryon and Jennifer Harvey tackle one of today's loudest cultural narratives: “Marriage is bad for women.” From viral reels to negative blog posts, modern messaging often paints marriage as limiting, misogynistic, or a barrier to women's personal success. But the Harveys push back with both research and biblical wisdom, highlighting findings from the General Social Survey that consistently show married women—especially married women with children—report significantly higher levels of happiness than their single peers. While the data can't claim that marriage causes happiness, it does clearly demonstrate that marriage is not harmful to women and often correlates with meaningful emotional, spiritual, and relational benefits. Bryon and Jen explore why this disconnect exists and how social media outrage, pain-driven content, and misunderstanding of Christian teaching all contribute to a distorted narrative. They explain how biblical marriage offers women deep emotional support, protection against loneliness, shared identity and purpose, accountability for personal growth, and the joy of partnership in both daily life and spiritual mission. But these benefits don't flow automatically—marriage only thrives when both spouses actively invest in it. Husbands are called to love their wives as Christ loves the church (Ephesians 5:25), creating emotional safety and mutuality, while wives partner in love and teamwork. Healthy communication, catching small issues early, and keeping Christ at the center are essential practices that help women flourish in marriage. The episode ends with a challenge for couples to evaluate the benefits they are experiencing in their relationship and to intentionally reconnect if something is missing. Asking simple questions like, “How do I help you feel loved, valued, or seen?” and “What small issues do we need to address together?” can reignite unity and purpose. As the Harveys often remind listeners: if both of you aren't winning, neither of you is winning.

Marriage works best when it follows God's kingdom blueprint rather than personal opinions or examples that don't align with His instructions. Scripture shows that God sometimes allowed imperfect practices due to human ignorance or hardened hearts, but His true design for marriage is now clearly revealed. In God's kingdom, marriage is a lifelong, permanent union between one man and one woman, built on divine order and responsibility. Husbands are submitted to Christ and lead through sacrificial love and service, while wives are called to submit to and respect their husbands. Both spouses are responsible for intentionally serving one another's needs and desires, creating mutual care and unity. Sexual intimacy is meant to be frequent, mutually enjoyable, and protected within marriage. When couples follow these principles faithfully and unconditionally, God's design produces peace, clarity, and a healthy, thriving marriage.

Got some sh!t to say?In this episode, Marko and Steve dive headfirst into the messy, loud-whispered, and oh-so-queer conversation around “body count.” Does your sexual history shape how desirable you are as a partner, or is it just another outdated trope we drag into modern dating?The guys break down why body count still comes up in queer conversations, unpack where the idea of being “pure” even comes from, and ask the big question: does being the so-called “pass-around party bottom” actually disqualify anyone from love, commitment, or marriage?

Send us a textOur guest today, Jay Setchell, in his own words: "Multiple deaths & near death experiences. 73 Surgeries. Paralysis. Faith / Hope / Prayer... The discipline and structure of the Marine Corps drilled into me a commitment to every cause I took on. Years of pain, frustration, and setbacks gave me a relentless determination to get back up and keep going. My successes fueled my drive, and even my failures gave me fire to keep pushing forward. What I've learned is simple but powerful: I can't expect my future to be handed to me by someone else. It's my responsibility. There are ten little two-letter words I've carried with me for years, words that keep me motivated whenever I feel the temptation to give in: IF IT IS TO BE, IT IS UP TO ME.

If so, what does it mean to submit within the marriage context? While Scripture does teach the importance of wives submitting to their husbands in Ephesians 5:22, it teaches this in the context of mutual submission to each other which is to occur in marriage and in the church (Ephesians 5:21).

But we love a good conversation.In this raw 2 Be Better Podcast episode, Chris and Peaches read two powerful emails that hit everything from religious trauma and teen pregnancy to addiction, stillbirth, and slowly rebuilding a marriage after rock bottom. You will hear them unpack a deeply controlling church upbringing, running away at 17, getting pregnant, losing a baby, marrying young, and trying to heal while a husband battles drugs, grief, and a broken family system. They walk through mentorship for men, women stepping into real support instead of enabling, and what it actually looks like to build a functional marriage and family after chaos, including moving states, starting over, finding a healthier community, and creating a home where the kids are protected from generational patterns. From there they shift into a homestead marriage case study, breaking down a stay at home mom on 2.5 acres, a blue collar husband who works out of town, and the recurring fights that never seem to get resolved. They go deep on “you don't listen” versus “I don't understand,” love languages, why a wife can feel unseen even with great sex, how compliments and validation work for women, and how blue collar joking and passive aggressive digs about weight can quietly destroy intimacy. You will get practical, no nonsense communication advice, how to ask for what you need without disrespecting his leadership, how to stop bottling resentment, and how to align on parenting, money, work ethic, Roth IRAs, and long term plans for your kids so your marriage and homestead actually thrive. If you are a homestead wife, a blue collar husband, or a couple searching for real marriage advice, relationship coaching, and traditional values without the fluff, this episode will speak directly to you.

This week at Venture, Pastor Morgan concluded our Journey Through Ephesians series with a powerful and deeply practical message from Ephesians 5–6 on what it means to build a Spirit-filled home. Paul teaches that the truest test of our spiritual maturity isn't found on Sundays, in small groups, or in public — it's found in our homes. Pastor Morgan unpacks how the Gospel should transform our marriages, our parenting, and even our work relationships. A Spirit-filled home is built on:• Mutual submission• Christlike love• Godly order• Every relationship submitted to Jesus From marriage roles to parenting with gentleness, to representing Christ in the workplace, this message challenges us to invite the Holy Spirit into the center of our homes and everyday relationships. If your home feels chaotic, heavy, or dry — there is hope. The same Spirit who fills us in worship can fill our homes with peace, unity, and transformation. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to Venture Church Online00:06 – “Tell us where you're watching from!”00:14 – Christmas vibes + Yule log jokes00:34 – Pastor Morgan begins + series conclusion01:12 – Recap: Armor of God (previous series)01:35 – Christmas season officially begins01:54 – Thanksgiving leftovers mourning02:14 – Hosting 12 people + refreshing the home02:46 – What a “reset” does for a house03:06 – Physical home vs. spiritual home atmosphere03:54 – Losing your holiness at home04:12 – Making Jesus famous at work vs. at home04:39 – Chaos, Legos, Costco flannels & sanctification05:17 – The home as the true test of spiritual maturity06:12 – Review of Ephesians: spiritual blessings, identity07:05 – From mountaintop truths to family relationships07:24 – If the Gospel doesn't change your home…07:48 – Instructions for Spirit-filled households08:03 – Reading Ephesians 5:21–3309:25 – Main point: A Spirit-filled home is built on mutual submission10:08 – Context: Greco-Roman household codes11:08 – How Christianity revolutionized the home11:32 – Centering all relationships on Jesus11:56 – Giving dignity and value to every family member12:23 – Calling those with power to sacrifice the most12:48 – “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ”13:03 – Definition: Voluntarily placing others above yourself13:32 – A Spirit-filled posture says: “Christ is Lord of this home”14:24 – Submission isn't weakness — Jesus modeled it15:20 – The Spirit submits to the Son — equality within submission15:46 – Submission = Christlikeness16:12 – Marriage roles begin with mutual submission16:46 – Wives: honor your husbands (own husbands!)17:11 – Misuse of this text addressed18:18 – Submission is not inferiority, silence, or passivity18:56 – Proverbs 31: strong, wise, capable women19:26 – Honor creates atmosphere for husbands to thrive19:50 – Husbands: love like Christ loved the Church20:13 – Wives submit, husbands sacrifice20:41 – Your wife doesn't need a king — she has one21:20 – Husbands set the tone of the home21:49 – Pilot illustration — calm leadership22:40 – Your marriage preaches a sermon daily23:06 – Spirit-filled parenting begins23:40 – Children: obey and honor your parents24:06 – The promise that comes with obedience24:24 – Teaching youth the value of honor25:09 – Parents: do not provoke your children25:39 – Don't crush your kids with criticism26:13 – “Bring them up” — nurture, don't intimidate26:37 – Parents + pastors = partnership (NextGen vision)27:37 – Children are like wet cement — everything leaves a mark28:08 – Spirit-filled work relationships28:18 – Working as unto the Lord29:04 – Christians should be the most reliable workers29:48 – Your work is worship30:13 – Leaders: use influence to bless, not manipulate30:35 – Business owners leading with Christlike character31:01 – Spirit-filled relationships submit to Christ31:17 – Taking inventory of our own homes31:44 – Is Christ the center of your home?32:01 – What atmosphere greets people in your house?32:50 – The Spirit can transform your home33:13 – Harshness, sarcasm, avoidance — and hope33:42 – Husbands, wives, children, parents, leaders — all worship34:36 – The Spirit who fills you at church can fill your home35:02 – God can heal marriages and restore families35:29 – Response moment: invitation to be Spirit-filled36:14 – Prayer for homes and families36:50 – Corporate closing prayer37:49 – Venture sign-up reminders + Winter Camp38:26 – Subscribe + learn more about Venture Church

Delight Your Marriage | Relationship Advice, Christianity, & Sexual Intimacy
What Turns Her Off — and What Godly Husbands Do Instead Have you ever wished you could just…get inside your wife's heart for a moment? Not to manipulate, but to genuinely understand her. To love her in a way that makes her feel safe and wanted—not pressured or confused. My husband Darrow and I sat down to talk through something men rarely get honest insight about: Her biggest turn-offs. And not because we want to shame or scold—but because clarity brings freedom. When you finally understand what shuts her down, you also discover what opens her heart. So take a deep breath.You're not in trouble.You're learning—and that already makes you a good man. Let's walk through these turn-offs together, with God's kindness leading us all the way. 1. When Affection Feels Like a Transaction One of the most common complaints I hear from wives is this: "Every time he does something sweet, it feels like he's trying to get sex." A back rub, a coffee, a hand on her waist, a date night—beautiful gestures—become tainted when she senses they come with an expectation. When affection is only a bridge to the bedroom, she feels: Used Not loved for who she is Like her worth is tied to her sexual availability God never intended marital intimacy to be a negotiation.Love her without a scoreboard. Bless her without an agenda. 2. Grabbing, Pinching, or Smacking Her Body When She's Not Comfortable Yes…wives talk about this. And I know many husbands mean it playfully.But if she doesn't feel safe—emotionally, spiritually, or physically—this kind of touch feels like entitlement, not affection. Her body is not something to be "snatched."She needs room to open, not pressure to surrender. When she feels cherished—not grabbed—she wants to share her body freely. 3. Taking "Not Now" Personally If she says she's tired, overwhelmed, stressed, or simply "not right now," it's almost never about you. But when a husband interprets it as: Rejection Lack of desire "She doesn't love me" …it puts enormous emotional weight on her shoulders. Instead, respond with: "No worries, sweetheart. Another time would be wonderful." That confidence and peace will draw her toward you—not away. 4. Moping After She Says No Emotional sulking is not harmless. Moping communicates: "You disappointed me." "Now I have to punish you with sadness." "You're responsible for my emotions." This shuts her heart down.Fast. Your steadiness and joy—even when she's not available—makes her feel safe. And safety is the soil where desire grows. 5. Punishing Her for Not Wanting Sex This is one of the deepest wounds wives carry. Punishments include: Silent treatment Withholding affection Moving to another room Being cold or distant Only being "nice" when you want intimacy These behaviors feel manipulative and honestly frightening. Your wife is not the enemy. She is the assignment God entrusted to you. Lead with love, not consequences. 6. Lack of Playfulness Playfulness is essential to intimacy. If everything feels heavy, serious, structured, pressured…then her nervous system never relaxes enough to enjoy being sensual. Silliness is holy ground for a woman's heart. Laughter lowers her guard.Playfulness creates connection. If you want her to be playful in the bedroom, she needs to experience playfulness outside the bedroom. 7. Not Feeling Emotionally Safe Women cannot separate emotional connection from physical intimacy. I'll say that one more time. Women cannot separate emotional connection from physical intimacy. When she feels emotionally unsafe, her body shuts down. Emotional Safety looks like: Listening Compassion Being slow to speak and quick to understand Responding gently Supporting her heart, not "fixing" immediately When she feels heard, she opens. 8. Being a "Negative Nellie" (or Negative Ned!) Constant complaining is exhausting and not attractive. It pulls the atmosphere of the home downward and makes her feel like she has to carry your emotional weight. There is space to process hard things—but constant negativity drains the joy God wants in your marriage. Rejoice. Notice blessings. Bring hope into the home. 9. Bitterness and Resentment Long-term resentment is a marriage-killer. Bitterness communicates: "I haven't forgiven you." "You owe me." "I'm still keeping score." This is the opposite of Christlike love. Your wife cannot relax into intimacy with a man who holds her mistakes over her head. Forgiveness clears the ground for closeness to grow again. And if you need a little extra inspiration, let us turn you to Matthew 6:15 (NIV): "But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins." 10. Being Too Serious All the Time Intensity has a place—but not every moment. When a man is always stern, rigid, perfectionistic, spiritual-but-heavy…it makes her feel like she can never fully exhale. If she can't be herself around you, she won't be vulnerable with you. Joy is a fruit of the Spirit—not an optional extra. 11. Using Slang or Sexual Words She Doesn't Like Words matter. Some husbands use slang affectionately or playfully.Some wives love it.Others absolutely don't. If slang or sexual language makes her uncomfortable, embarrassed, or unsafe, it becomes a turn-off—not a turn-on. Honor her preferences. You're not losing freedom—you're gaining connection. Final Thoughts: So What Do You Do with All This? If reading this stirs conviction…good. Conviction is not condemnation.The enemy heaps shame.God invites repentance—and repentance leads to freedom. Your wife is God's daughter. And He entrusted her to you. Every shift you make toward loving her well brings you closer to His heart and closer to hers. We're rooting for you! Blessing, The Delight Your Marriage Team PS - If you want help walking this out in real life—not just head knowledge—that's exactly why our coaching and in-person training programs exist. Men who were separated from their wives…Men in sexless marriages…Men whose wives felt unsafe for years……have seen transformation they once thought impossible.For more information on our In-Person Training programs, launching January 2026, check out delightyourmarriage.com/ipt If you're ready to dive into the Coaching programs, please feel free to schedule a free Clarity Call at delightyourmarriage.com/cc PPS - Here is a quote from a recent In-Person Training pilot program graduate: "My wife and I have been separated for 6 months, and the same day as our [IPT] graduation, she chose to and began moving back into our matrimonial home. I also told her about our [IPT] program that same day. Up until then, I had said I was attending a men's bible study. All praise be to God."

They explore how self-pleasure can be a healthy, personal form of sexual expression, even when one has an available and willing partner. The conversation navigates questions like: Should your partner fulfill all your sexual needs? Or is it reasonable—and even beneficial—for individuals to maintain a solo sexual practice? They address common misconceptions, emotional impacts, and how open communication plays a key role in balancing intimacy with personal autonomy. To wrap things up, they tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience-Articles:Psych Central | Is It Typical to Masturbate When You're Married?Guy Stuff | Why Does My Husband Prefer His Hand Over Me?Support the showSh!t | Leave us a voicemail with your relationship sh!tuation at (903) POD- SHIT.

Catholic men today stand in the middle of a spiritual battlefield, and most don't even realize it. In this episode, I sit down with Devin Schadt, founder of The Fathers of St. Joseph, co-host of The Catholic Gentleman, and author of The Rule: Councils and Directives for Husbands and Fathers. This conversation is a direct call to arms. If you have grown numb, passive, distracted, or uncertain about your mission as a man, this episode will shake you awake.From the opening minutes, Devin drills into the truth most men avoid: fatherhood is the epicenter of the entire moral and spiritual crisis in our culture. As he says clearly, if you get the father, you get the marriage, you get the family, you get the parish, and eventually you begin to win the world for Christ. This is not theory. This is spiritual warfare. And the devil knows it.We break open the wounds men carry, the lies they believe, the gaps in their spiritual lives, and the hunger children have for their father's gaze. And more importantly, we lay out the path forward. Devin gives practical direction for living St. Joseph's spirituality, establishing order in the home, blessing your children every night, uniting with your wife as a single spiritual front, and building a “rule of life” that keeps you standing when the spiritual bullets start flying.If you're tired of drifting, tired of being spiritually numb, tired of watching the culture swallow families whole, press play.

As the father goes, so goes the family.”“You cannot give what you do not possess. If I do not have God in me, I cannot give God to my family.”“One man can change the world, and it can be a little hidden man—just like St. Joseph.”KEY TAKEAWAY FOR MENEstablish daily prayer—no matter what.

In this raw and urgent episode, Ryan and Selena respond directly to a viral clip from Dr. Emerson Eggerichs (Love & Respect) where he calls out wives who “continually mock their husbands,” put them down mentally, and secretly make fun of their opinions.If you've ever caught yourself thinking, “He's just not the man I thought I married” … this episode is for you.We dive deep into:The devastating long-term fruit of a disrespectful speech and a critical spirit (Prov 21:19, Prov 27:15)Why even “small” condescending comments, eye-rolls, and corrections are spiritual poisonGenesis 1–2 and Ephesians 5:22–33 – God's original design for husbands to WORK and wives to RESPECTThe moment a wife stops seeing her husband “in his element,” her view of him becomes dangerously incompleteThe 4 C's every wife must confront: What are you Consuming? Who are you Consulting? Who are you Complaining to? It's time to CUT it out.The 200-year plan: How today's sarcasm and discontent become tomorrow's bitterness, affairs, or divorcePractical steps to break the cycle: Repent to God → Repent to your husband → Replace criticism with gratitude → Renew your mind daily (Romans 12:2)Husbands: this isn't permission to be passive. A wife's biblical respect flows most naturally when her husband loves her as Christ loves the church. We talk about that too.Whether you're the wife struggling with disrespect or the husband feeling crushed under constant criticism—this episode will challenge and encourage you toward the fierce, gospel-centered marriage you both long for.Scriptures covered: Genesis 1–2, Ephesians 5:22–33, Proverbs 21:19, Proverbs 27:15–16, Romans 12:1–2Resources mentioned: → Join the Fierce Men brotherhood (YouTube + private community)→ Fierce Fellows on Patreon – exclusive marriage content→ Partner with Fierce Marriage: https://fiercemarriage.com/partnerIf this episode hit home, text it to a friend who needs it.

What do you get when a man hears a podcast, has an epiphany in his garage, and decides to educate millions of guys on TikTok about menopause? You get Jesse Robertson (the creator behind Husbands for Menopause) and one of our favorite conversations ever.This week on Laugh Lines, Penn and I sit down with Jesse to talk about how he started spiraling (in a good way!) into understanding menopause, better supporting his wife, and educating millions of men. Our conversation digs into why men absolutely need to be part of the menopause conversation, how to have more empathy for your spouse, and effective ways to communicate. We even brainstorm the very first Menopause Men's Choir (which is exactly as chaotic and delightful as it sounds) and laugh our way through “banana wrapper” moments that happen when your perimenopause brain cannot find the words.Enjoy the conversation, share this episode to your husband! Jesse believes with better understanding men can be more supportive—and after this episode, you'll believe it too.

Guiding Question: What hidden enemies can sabotage a man's pursuit of God's adventure—and how do we fight back?
This lecture explores a passage from Colossians 3:18 through 4:1, addressing the complexities of relationships under the lordship of Christ. It begins by emphasizing the closing lines of Paul's letter — "Remember my chains; may God's grace be with you" — as a poignant reminder of the hope and grace that underpin even the most difficult circumstances. The speaker acknowledges the historical misuse of biblical texts, particularly regarding slavery and gender roles, and approaches the scripture with sensitivity while holding on to the transformative power of God's grace in every aspect of life.The text is situated within the ancient household codes that reflected the social hierarchies of the time. The speaker elucidates how these codes provided practical guidance for everyday relationships under varying degrees of power dynamics. Importantly, the exhortation to "reframe every relationship in light of Christ as Lord" highlights the call to view interactions through the lens of a loving and self-giving Christ rather than as mere cultural norms. The passage's structure — addressing the subordinate parties first — suggests a revolutionary perspective that reorients motives and behaviors based on the lordship of Jesus.The discussion focuses on three main relational dynamics: husbands and wives, parents and children, and masters and slaves. In each case, the passage provides instructions that reflect both a radical shift in perspective and a reinforcement of mutual dignity. The speaker underscores Paul's guidance to wives to submit, not as an endorsement of superiority, but connected to the lordship of Christ which transforms the nature of that submission. The call for husbands to love their wives tenderly is positioned as countercultural, emphasizing self-sacrificial love that embodies Christ's nature.Similarly, the lecture examines the parent-child dynamic, where children are encouraged to obey their parents as a form of reverence to the Lord, while parents are prompted to avoid provoking their children. The speaker draws attention to how traditional Roman values that favored strict adherence to parental authority starkly contrast with the grace-filled approach advocated by Paul. This framework encourages nurturing relationships that inspire rather than suppress a child's spirit.The final relational dynamic addresses the relationship between enslaved individuals and their masters, framed in the context of Christ's greater lordship. The speaker argues that even in a system as oppressive as slavery, the transformative nature of Christ's lordship provides a sliver of hope and empowerment for the oppressed. It challenges both sides of the hierarchy to reflect on their behavior and the ethical implications of their roles, establishing that Christ is Lord over all, which obligates both parties to treat one another justly.As the lecture concludes, attendees are invited to reflect on their own relationships and how they might reframe them to align with the teachings of Christ. The speaker presents several probing questions designed to encourage individuals to engage with their experiences and relationships through a lens of grace and servitude, ultimately urging the audience to consider the application of this lordship in their lives. The session shifts into a time of worship and reflection, reaffirming that the lessons imparted are not confined to ancient history but have profound relevance today, prompting a re-examination of relational dynamics grounded in Christ's transformative love.

Rhonda Belle Martin looked like a loving wife, a devoted mother, and a kind small-town waitress. But behind that gentle exterior was a deadly secret. Over nearly two decades, she poisoned the people closest to her. Husbands. Children. Even her own mother. Each death was slow, deliberate, and wrapped in the disguise of grief.When investigators finally connected the pattern, the truth shocked Alabama and the entire country. Why did she do it? Money was scarce, sympathy was plentiful, and Rhonda herself gave no clear motive. In fact, she even asked doctors to examine her body after her execution, hoping it would explain why she killed the people she claimed to love.This is the chilling story of the Black Widow of Alabama, a woman whose affection came with a fatal dose.Follow True Crime Recaps for more cases where love, loyalty, and murder collide.
Sadie and Christian are joined by Will and Abby Robertson to break down the real questions husbands have about their wives…but are way too scared to actually ask. Like, what does “I'm fine” really mean? And when you say, “I have nothing to wear,” while staring at a fully loaded closet—let's unpack that. How do women just instantly know the right thing to say? And when we're venting, are we genuinely asking for advice or do we just need someone to nod along and hand us a snack? And finally, do wives actually want to pick the restaurant, or do we low-key just want our husbands to take charge and choose already? https://drinklmnt.com/whoa — Get a free LMNT Sample Pack with any purchase! https://samaritanspurse.org/occ — Share God's love with a child in need this holiday season.
