Ever noticed how quickly the word “pseudoscience” gets thrown around?

You’ll learn:*Why so many ideas once ridiculed as nonsense are now cornerstones of modern medicine.*How science and spirituality don’t need to be at war, they’re simply asking different questions.*What staying open to both data and experience reveals about how we grow, heal, and understand ourselves.

Delight Your Marriage | Relationship Advice, Christianity, & Sexual Intimacy
497-Living a Life of No Regrets in Marriage and Faith [Re-Release] (Previously Titled: Changing OURSELVES in Light of Eternity) Hello, listeners! As we continue to work on our recording our very first in-person trainings, we hope you will enjoy some of the re-releases from the past few years of the Delight Your Marriage podcast (It has certainly been sweet to us to re-listen and share some of our favorites with you!) For this week, we hope you will enjoy a little bit of Christmas in the summertime as we talk about living life in light of eternity. Christmas is certainly a wonderful time to remember who Jesus is and why he is worthy of our lives, but we think a balmy day in August is a good time to remember that also. Enjoy this re-release and we look forward to sharing some other favorite episodes with you soon! God bless! Marriage as Your First Assignment Before God When we think about standing before Jesus one day, many of us imagine wanting to hear the words, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” But how often do we connect that vision with our marriages? The truth is, God has entrusted you with a spouse—not by accident, not as an afterthought, but as a sacred assignment. Your husband or wife is your first ministry. Loving God by Loving Your Spouse Jesus told us the greatest commandment is to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength—and the second is like it: to love our neighbor as ourselves. And who is your closest neighbor? Your spouse. No one else can encourage your spouse like you can. No one else can pray for them, serve them, or provide safety and intimacy in the same way. Your marriage is one of the clearest ways to live out your love for God. When you choose to love your husband or wife with gentleness, patience, and sacrificial love, you are actually loving Jesus. Integrity, Intimacy, and Safety Loving your spouse well isn't just about words—it's about integrity. It's about creating true safety by guarding your heart, your eyes, and your thoughts. It's about saying no to distractions that cheapen your focus—whether that's pornography, busyness, or pouring your energy into hobbies instead of your home. When you choose discipline, integrity, and faithfulness, your spouse experiences the safety God designed marriage to provide. And intimacy—emotional, spiritual, and physical—flows from that foundation. A Life with No Regrets This life is short. One day, you and I will stand before Jesus. What will we be able to say about how we loved? Did we prioritize our marriages? Did we love our spouses as Christ asked us to? Did we make sacrifices to ensure our marriages reflected His heart? The good news is—it's not too late. Today, you can choose to love your spouse as your first assignment before God. You can choose to realign your priorities and live with no regrets. Your Invitation Your marriage is not just about you and your spouse—it's about reflecting Jesus to the world. When you love your spouse well, you glorify God. Take some time today to ask: What does it mean for me to love God with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength? How can I show that love to my spouse in practical, tangible ways? What do I want to be true of me when I stand before Jesus? Friend, don't waste the life God has entrusted to you. Start with the person He's placed right by your side. Your first neighbor. You can do this. God bless you, The Delight Your Marriage Team PS - If you are ready to join our Coaching Programs, we would love to chat with you! Schedule a free Clarity Call with one of our Clarity Call advisors and discover what your marriage needs to fully connected once again. PPS - We are doing a pilot launch in churches this Fall!

If you'd like your church to be a part of our pilot program, please check out https://delightyourmarriage.com/church/ PPPS - Here is a quote from a recent graduate: "We were both resentful of how we treated each other. My expectations were rarely met and I could be quite cold. My moods would overflow into my parenting and even work. After 20+ years of this I had very little hope that things could change. I was not going to leave my family, but I did seek to escape through alcohol and pornography at times... [Now,] My wife has told me she feels safe. She has begun to trust that my change is not a passing fad. I have gained understanding in how to love her well. I look forward to being around her, and to pampering her and loving her well. This has overflowed into intimacy emotionally, spiritually, and physically...I didn't realize how much pain I was causing her, or how self focused I was. I was trying to get her to change and should have been working on me."
Ever found yourself asking ChatGPT something you’d normally only whisper to a friend or a therapist? In this episode of Sarah’s Thoughts, Sarah Grynberg explores why AI feels like such a safe place to share our questions and fears, and what gets lost when we start turning to machines instead of people. You’ll learn:*Why the appeal of AI isn’t just about answers, but the absence of judgment.*What technology can give us in moments of uncertainty and what it never can.*Why real connection still requires presence, silence, and the irreplaceable weight of being witnessed. This isn’t an episode about technology. It’s about what it means to be human in an age of instant responses, and why we still need the pause, the eye contact, and the quiet reassurance that says, “You are not alone.” Purchase Sarah's book: Living A Life Of Greatness here.

What if the root of your stress isn't your workload—but your identity?

She asks a bold question: What if your stress is coming from living a life that was never truly yours?

If you feel exhausted even when doing “everything right,” this episode will help you understand what your body, soul, and subconscious have been trying to tell you all along.

The answer? “Follow the intuitive hit we have been giving you for two years, everything else has been taken care of.” She finally trusted herself—and days later, she landed a new job with a higher salary and a shorter commute.

Abiding in God's Love by Living a Life of Surrender (Formerly Titled: Real Love Takes Sacrifice) We know the Bible says “God is love” (1 John 4:8) and that He loved us first. But if we're honest, many of us spend more time wondering, “Does God really love me?” than asking the deeper, more revealing question: “Do I truly love Him?” That's the heart of today's message. God's love for you is unshakable, unchanging, and eternal. The real question is whether your love for Him is genuine—and if it's showing up in your life the way true love always does: through sacrifice. When You Don't Feel God's Love Maybe you've been a Christian for years but can't remember the last time you felt God's love. You've read the verses. You've prayed the prayers. But it's like you're in a spiritual drought. The truth? Feelings aren't the measure of His love. But there's often a missing link when we feel disconnected from God—and it's not that He's holding back. It's that our love for Him hasn't moved from words to action. Abiding in God's Love Requires Sacrifice Jesus said plainly, “If you love Me, keep My commands” (John 14:15). Love isn't just warm feelings or goosebumps in worship—it's obedience. And obedience requires sacrifice. That sacrifice may look like: Giving up your comfort Laying down your need for control Surrendering your demand to understand everything before trusting Releasing opinions that don't align with His Word It's the same principle in marriage—love grows deeper when it's willing to lay self aside for the other's good. Our relationship with Jesus is no different. The Pearl of Great Price and God's Love In Matthew 13:45–46, Jesus tells of a merchant who sold all he had to buy one pearl of great value. That's what loving God looks like—letting go of everything else so you can fully hold onto Him. You don't get the pearl without selling all. You don't experience the fullness of God's love without the surrender that real love demands. Beyond the Honeymoon: Abiding in God's Love Daily Some of us have had that powerful, early experience with God—a “honeymoon” season where His presence felt constant and overwhelming. But just like in marriage, the relationship matures. The emotions may not always be intense, but the love grows deeper as it's proven through daily, intentional sacrifice. Surrender: The Path to Experiencing God's Love If you want a fresh revelation of God's love, start here: Ask Him to show you where He's calling you to surrender. Choose obedience in that area—even when it costs you. Trust Him with the outcome. When you give Him your heart in this way, you'll discover what you can't manufacture through feelings alone: the deep, abiding joy of walking in step with His love. Blessings, The Delight Your Marriage Team PS - If you're ready to take the next step toward real transformation in your marriage, I'd love to invite you to a free Clarity Call. It's a safe, judgment-free space to share your story, discover what's been holding you back, and see if our program is the right fit for you. Don't wait—your next season of connection, joy, and hope could start today. PPS - Here is a quote from a recent grad: "I have daily devotions now, I practice gratitude daily now. I have more confidence and less anxiety around people or stressful situation. I feel closer to God now...what could be a bigger impact than that?"

During this week's episode, Matthew and Anthony focused on the power of surrender, the dangers of living for status updates, and the call to walk in true legacy and accountability. In a world where every action is documented and broadcasted, we must be mindful of the legacy we're building, not just for ourselves but for those who come after us. When we surrender our will, embrace accountability, and live for legacy, God elevates us and uses us to change the game in our spheres of influence.

In this week's conversation Aaron and Kevin are talking about what it looks like for a Christian to live a life that demans of an explanation. The life of the Christian ought to shine brightly in this world that is so often clouded in the darkness of sin. We love, sacrifice, are generous, forgive, etc. - or, at least that's what Christ has worked into us by his spirit. We hope that this conversation is inspiring to you and that you would be so filled with the Spirit of the living God that your life would demand an explanation. We hope you enjoy it!

In this message, we dive into what it means to live a life of conviction in a world that constantly pressures us to compromise. Anchored in Romans 12:2, we explore how to stand firm in our faith, live boldly, and remain faithful no matter the cost.
Change doesn't always come with a breakthrough—it often begins with a single small step taken with intention. Brianna Wiest shares her wisdom on how micro shifts, emotional awareness, and self-compassion can transform not only your habits but your entire life. With clarity and heart, she explores the power of slowing down, embracing seasons of transition, and building emotional architecture that supports lasting growth. Her perspective reminds us that the life we're waiting for is already unfolding—one small, consistent choice at a time. Key Takeaways: Small, intentional actions create momentum for long-term transformation without overwhelming your nervous system. Emotional architecture helps you process feelings as teachers, not obstacles. Self-sabotage often masks a deeper need for safety or care—identifying those needs can break the cycle.

Living a Life Transformed | Romans 12:3-8 In the opening two verses of Romans 12, Paul has commanded us not to follow the spirit of the age but to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. In Christ, we have been brought into a new humanity that God is remaking into the likeness of His Son. God’s great passion and purposes are to mold us into the likeness of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then Paul gets very practical. What does this look like in practice? How does this affect all the different spheres of our lives? As we continue in our study of Romans this week, Paul will pick up this theme revealing to us how belonging to a new humanity in Christ changes everything. I pray you will plan to join us this weekend as we study God’s Word and seek to live a transformed life that glorifies Christ. — Pastor Chad McDonald

There are no warning bells. No calendar reminder that says: This is it, the last time. You just notice one day that your child no longer reaches for your hand. Or climbs into your lap. Or wants the story they once begged you to read every night. In this week's Sarah’s Thoughts, Sarah Grynberg reflects on the invisible endings that come with raising children, the quiet ways they outgrow us, not out of malice, but momentum. These are not milestones we celebrate, but moments that linger in the heart. The ache of it lives in the ordinary. And we don’t talk about it enough. Because while we prepare for their firsts, no one prepares us for their lasts. You’ll learn:*Why the hardest part of parenting isn’t the chaos, but the letting go.*How to navigate the shifting role of parenthood with grace and strength.*What it means to hold space when you’re no longer the centre of their world. In this episode you’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of how to hold onto what matters, even as you learn to let go. Purchase Sarah's book: Living A Life Of Greatness here.
