In today's episode, in honor of our 10-year anniversary, we looked back at an episode you all loved where we made a list of things we wish we could tell ourselves as newlyweds. It was so fun to reminisce on the “honeymoon phase” after we got married and reflect on all the ways we've grown individually and as a couple since then. We hope this episode encourages you in whatever stage of marriage you're in. And to our single friends out there—don't settle!

This week, Jake and Bob conclude their series and welcome Paul George, founder of The Art of Living Ministry. They explore the interior journey of a man learning to face his wounds, surrender control, and become who God created him to be. Paul shares his personal story— from childhood wounds and self-sufficiency to finding healing through marriage, prayer, and mentorship. They also discuss how unresolved pain can shape a man's identity, how it affects his relationships, and why vulnerability is the doorway to intimacy and freedom. Key Points: Paul's childhood experiences, especially his parents' divorce, deeply influenced his identity and relational patterns. He developed a strong sense of independence that later became a barrier to intimacy. Marriage exposes unresolved wounds and emotional barriers. Self-sufficiency often times is a mask that covers the inability to receive someone else's love. Growth begins with recognizing patterns in your life and asking God why they exist. Many men believe they will never change which leads to resignation and feeling stuck. It is important not to dwell on "what if's" or regrets about the past. Being vulnerable with your spouse and opening up about your wounds is an important step to deepening intimacy.  Both spouses must learn to love each other's brokenness. A man must take responsibility for his growth rather than blaming others. Change doesn't erase the impact of past behavior on loved ones.  A man's (and woman's) ultimate call is to love sacrificially, especially when it's difficult or unseen.   Resources: Paul's Website Paul's Ministry: The Art of Living The Paul George Show Paul's Books Feast Fierce Rethink Happiness Holy Grit Redeemed Men's Conference with the JPII Healing Center   Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 03:03 Paul's Story & Early Wounds 10:55 Spiritual Fatherhood & Mentorship 12:30 Ministry Through Sports 14:00 Trapped in Regret & "What Ifs" 18:24 Learning to Trust God's Provision 27:54 The Power of Self-Awareness 40:43 Inviting Your Spouse into Wounds 53:02 Why Growth Requires Struggle 56:06 Paul's Ministry & Resources   Connect with Restore the Glory:  Instagram: @restoretheglorypodcast  Twitter: @RestoreGloryPod Facebook: Restore the Glory Podcast   Never miss out on an episode by hitting the subscribe button right now!

To celebrate our anniversaries, we're talking about tending to our marriages. We chat about how we're finding time together with our husbands in this season and what we like to do on dates. We also chat about the hobbies we share and might like to get into.As a treat for Friends of the Show on Patreon, we are bringing you the Husbands Next Door! One of them described our marriage as a borg. The other made inappropriate comments that had to be edited out. See?

Quick note: We announced the Tender and Fierce fall cohort. See show notes below. What's the first question we ask our kids in kindergarten? “What do you want to BE when you grow up?” We do our children a disservice by asking this question because the very nature of the phrase implies that what you DO is who you are. What about for ourselves as adults? What does it means to live in “fullness of life,” even when our circumstances might not match our heart's desire? Perhaps Teresa of Avila held a clue to this mystery when she said, “God is among the pots and the pans.” In this episode, Josh and Christi define what we mean by the word “purpose” and also identify other flaws of our modern cultural understanding of purpose and how it influences how we shepherd the hearts of our kids. One question to consider, “Is our understanding of purpose, especially when raising our children, filtered through a biblical lens?” In other words, who is God calling our children to “become?”Josh and Christi also discuss Christi's own “mid-life” crisis, the many layers of purpose, what the Bible tells us about meaning, and how we squelch our children's desire for purpose even in early childhood. Time Stamps:0:00 Introduction1:40 Welcome to our own mid-life crisis4:40 Tender & Fierce fall cohort announcement!5:40 Christi's mid-life crisis and rethinking what “purpose” really is13:00 The layers of purpose and helping our children find theirs20:00 Ecclesiastes and the discovery of meaning23:20 Finding “fullness of life” no matter your life circumstances or current occupation / role29:07 What keeps us from living in purpose33:00 What multiplication and expansion of our purpose actually means Show Notes: Reserve your seat for Tender & Fierce Fall Cohort beginning August 17, 2026: https://www.famousathome.com/offers/V75F6bY2 Looking for a marriage intensive with Famous at Home?

In this raw and unfiltered episode, Chris Burkett dives deep into men's mental health, modern masculinity, and the dangerous shift toward victim mentality in today's culture. Through real conversation and article breakdowns, this video challenges the mainstream narrative around depression, personal responsibility, and what it truly means to be a man in today's world. From the impact of social expectations on men to the growing loneliness epidemic, you'll hear bold perspectives on why so many men feel lost, disconnected, and stuck, and what they can actually do to change it.This episode also explores deeper topics like emotional expression between men, the power of saying “I love you,” self-mastery through stoicism, and the importance of purpose, discipline, and brotherhood. Expect conversations around organic living, food consciousness, spiritual awareness, and the connection between mind, body, and environment. If you're looking for honest truth about masculinity, personal growth, mental health, and breaking free from societal conditioning, this is a must-watch discussion.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Marriage has a way of bringing our imperfections to the surface—and if we're honest, that can feel frustrating, discouraging, and even isolating at times. But what if those struggles aren't something to hide…what if they're actually where God's grace shows up most? In this episode, we're talking about how the imperfect stories we see throughout Scripture mirror our own and remind us that we're not alone in the mess. We'll unpack what it really looks like to build intimacy through vulnerability, why accepting each other's brokenness matters more than having it all together, and how God's unconditional love can shift the way you see yourself and your spouse. If you've ever felt like your marriage falls short of the ideal, this conversation will remind you that God does some of His best work right in the middle of it. Episode Highlights: The people in the Bible weren't perfect—and that's exactly where God's grace shows up, just like it does in our marriages. Real intimacy doesn't come from having it all together—it comes from being honest, letting your guard down, and choosing to love each other in the middle of the imperfections. When we truly understand God's unconditional love, it changes everything.   Quotes from this Episode: I think we all have a tendency to let other people define who we are and we've got to keep our eyes on him." I love that scripture in 1 John 4 all the time, you know, we love because He first loved us.- Dana Che People have this idea that people in the Bible are saints… I really wanted to show the humanity of the people in scripture. Just like us they struggled with their faith.- Dana Che Williams We can't project the image of God if we are hiding. If we are pretending. -Dana Che We are broken people who married broken people. - Dana Che Even if people reject you, God does not reject you. - Dana Che Williams We must get our worth and our value from the Lord.- Dana Che Williams We have to be tethered in. We have to be tied together, so that when the storms of life or the gentle everyday situations of life, we aren't disconnecting.  I can't be led by my feelings. I have to pray about my feelings. I have to submit my heart before the Lord. He wants your marriage to work. He wants every marriage to work.- Dr. Kim There is so much beauty in the suffering if we will just endure it.  Time to Talk About it:  Do you feel like you play second fiddle to anything in your spouse's life? Have you shared that with them? What routines and rhythms can we put in place to fight against the disconnect?  Are there things we did before marriage, that we have stopped doing? How can we bring that excitement back to our marriage today? What can the two of you be working on together to grow the Kingdom of God? (If you don't have an answer, take the time now to go to the Lord in prayer) Mentioned in This Episode: Connect with Dana Che Awesome Marriage is on Instagram!

Zach sits down with Arlina and Bob Allen, a couple who met in a recovery community over 30 years ago and have been building their marriage with the same tools ever since. What starts as a surprisingly revealing Game of Thrones conversation (they watch it on repeat as a bedtime ritual, and yes, they have strong opinions about House of the Dragon) turns into a grounded, real-world look at how recovery principles translate directly into relational health.Arlina walks through a go-to story from early in their relationship: a tipping dispute at a dinner with friends that spiraled into a full-blown money fight. She breaks down the four-column resentment inventory she learned in recovery, showing how she moved from "it's clearly his fault" to "oh no, I'm the jerk." Bob talks about the role his men's group played as a sounding board, helping him sort through what was his business and what wasn't before bringing anything back to Arlina. Together, they describe a pattern of going to their separate corners, doing individual work, and coming back ready to own their part.The conversation shifts into their current season of life: approaching the empty nest, figuring out what retirement looks like, and trying to answer the question "what kind of experiences do we want to have?" Zach reframes self-care as something that is actually selfish not to do, comparing it to an athlete hiding an injury from their team. Arlina and Bob both affirm that their self-care practices, morning routines, gratitude, exercise, prayer, are what keep them showing up as the best versions of themselves for each other. This is a couple who makes 31 years look like something worth rooting for.Key TakeawaysResentment is the wedge that drives couples apart. Having a structured process to work through it, not just vent about it, is what keeps it from calcifying.The four-column inventory (who, why, how it affected you, and your part) is a simple, powerful tool for getting honest with yourself before you try to get honest with your partner.Money fights are almost never about math. They're about fear, control, and what you believe you deserve.Having your own people (sponsors, friends, a therapist) to process with before bringing conflict back to your partner changes everything about how the conversation goes.An amends is not just "I'm sorry." It's naming the impact of your behavior and asking what you can do to make it right.Self-care is not selfish. Skipping it is. When you don't take care of yourself, your partner is the one who pays the price.You can "out-responsible" each other in conflict. Instead of chicken-and-egging blame in one direction, try racing to own your part first.Couples who laugh about old fights have usually done the real work underneath. The lightness is earned, not accidental.Guest InfoArlina Allen: Entrepreneur, sobriety coach, podcast host, and author of The 12 Step Guide for Skeptics. Arlina supports people who are considering quitting drinking or figuring out life after getting sober. Website: soberlifeschool.comBob Allen: Communications professional who describes himself as "the guy in the chair," orchestrating communication across teams from engineers to executives.

Many men enter marriage doing exactly what they've been conditioned to do their entire lives. They show up with a certain mindset about what it means to contribute, support, and lead in a family. And while those instincts come from a good place, they don't always translate into what actually creates closeness, emotional safety, and a strong partnership. This is where a lot of couples get stuck. One partner feels like they're giving a lot, while the other still feels something is missing. In this episode, we unpack the gap between what men are taught to bring into a relationship and what marriage truly needs from them to feel connected and fulfilling. When this gap goes unrecognized, it can lead to frustration, miscommunication, and feeling like you're not on the same team. But once you see it clearly, it opens the door for a completely different level of understanding, connection, and respect. ❤️ If you want simple, daily ways to strengthen your connection and bring more emotional and physical closeness into your marriage, join the 30-Day "Best of Us" Couples Challenge. It's designed to help you show up for each other in ways that truly land. Join now at mycoupleschallenge.com/best.

In a culture where sex is expected early and often… what does it actually look like to wait? Not as a rule, and not out of fear, but as a real, personal conviction.In this episode, we sit down with three Gen Z Christians who have chosen to wait for marriage. Not because they think they're better than anyone else, but because they're trying to live out what God designed for intimacy and relationships.We brought both guys and girls into the conversation on purpose, because this hits differently depending on who you are and what you've experienced.And we didn't keep it surface level. We talked about desire, temptation, dating, boundaries, and the questions most people are thinking but not saying out loud.We'll talk about:Why they're actually choosing to wait and how that conviction formedThe stereotypes people assume about them when they find outWhether waiting feels unrealistic or like they're “missing out”How they handle sexual desire, temptation, and intrusive thoughtsPorn, masturbation, and navigating grey areas in relationshipsHow to communicate boundaries without making it weirdWhat it's like dating while holding that lineWhether they've lost relationships because of itWhat they'd say to someone who feels disqualified because of their pastWhat they've actually gained by choosing to waitThis isn't a conversation about perfection. It's about real people trying to follow God in a culture that's going the opposite direction.If you've ever felt alone in this, confused about what's right, or unsure if waiting is even worth it… this episode is for you.Let's talk about it

Something is off… and I can't ignore it anymore

In most systems, when someone is harmed, the question is what the perpetrator did. Inside the Institute in Basic Life Principles, the question was always what the victim did to cause it.IBLP's central teaching — the "umbrella of authority" — told families that staying under hierarchical authority meant spiritual protection. If harm came to you, it was because you stepped outside the structure, or because someone above you had secret sin that created a "leak." The person who actually caused the harm was never the primary focus. The victim's obedience was.That doctrine extended everywhere. Marriage teachings told wives their bodies weren't their own and warned against resisting their husbands. Purity culture defined women's value by their modesty and sexual history. Courtship placed fathers in total control of their daughters' romantic lives. And the organization's own literature on sexual assault eliminated the concept of a blameless victim entirely — always redirecting the focus to the harmed person's spiritual positioning.The practical effect was a system where reporting abuse felt like confessing a sin. Where women in abusive marriages couldn't leave because divorce was framed as spiritual failure. Where children learned that their suffering was evidence of their own disobedience.This is Part 2 of a five-part investigation into the inner workings of IBLP. Not the celebrity families. The operating system. The belief structure that evangelical scholars have called legalistic, extra-biblical, and designed to silence the people most likely to be harmed. And the question at the center: when a doctrine tells victims they caused their own abuse, is that a failure of the system — or is it the system working exactly as intended?Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What kind of walls are you building around your family? Are they strong enough to protect what matters most, or are there cracks forming?  In this special series of 'Average Joe' conversations, Jim Ramos closes it out with long time friend Tyler Stoller, a professional in building fortification, to bring this metaphor to life. Together, they unpack what it really means to fortify your house, not just physically, but spiritually, emotionally, and relationally.  Because the truth is, protection isn't passive. If you're not intentionally guarding the hearts in your life, distractions, temptations, and outside noise will find a way in. Jim's newest book, Guardrails: Ten Boundaries for an Unbreakable Marriage will be releasing in April 2026. Get your copy today at https://tinyurl.com/guardrails115.  

JOHN 16:16-33 - SORROW TO JOY - BRIAN SUMNER - 2025JOHN 16:16-33 “A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go to the Father.”17 Then some of His disciples said among themselves, “What is this that He says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me'; and, ‘because I go to the Father'?” 18 They said therefore, “What is this that He says, ‘A little while'? We do not know what He is saying.”19 Now Jesus knew that they desired to ask Him, and He said to them, “Are you inquiring among yourselves about what I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me'? 20 Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy. 21 A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow because her hour has come; but as soon as she has given birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world. 22 Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you.23 “And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you. 24 Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.25 “These things I have spoken to you in figurative language; but the time is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figurative language, but I will tell you plainly about the Father. 26 In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I shall pray the Father for you; 27 for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and have believed that I came forth from God. 28 I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”29 His disciples said to Him, “See, now You are speaking plainly, and using no figure of speech! 30 Now we are sure that You know all things, and have no need that anyone should question You. By this we believe that You came forth from God.”31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe? 32 Indeed the hour is coming, yes, has now come, that you will be scattered, each to his [b]own, and will leave Me alone. And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me. 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”To support this channel and partner with Brian in Ministryhttps://www.briansumner.net/support/For more on Brianhttp://www.briansumner.nethttps://www.instagram.com/BRIANSUMNER/https://www.facebook.com/BRIANSUMNEROFFICIALTo listen to Brians Podcast, click below.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Purchase Brians Marriage book at https://www.amazon.com/Never-Fails-Da...Brian is a full time "Urban Missionary" both locally and internationally with a focus on MISSIONS - MARRIAGES - MINISTRY. Since coming to faith in 2004 doors continued opening locally and internationally to do more and more ministry with a focus on Evangelism, Outreach Missions, Marriage, Counsel, Schools, Festivals, Conferences and the like.  Everything about this ministry is made possible because of people personally partnering through the non profit. God Bless and thank you. †Support the showSUPPORT THE SHOW

What actually happens on diagnosis day — not the version you tell people later, but the real one? The fear, the disbelief, the weird human moments that happen right alongside the most terrifying news of your life? In this episode, Jen sits down with her husband Darren for one of the most honest conversations they've ever had on the podcast. Jen was diagnosed with ER/PR+ breast cancer. Darren has been fighting Grade 4 Astrocytoma brain cancer — and is still here, defying every statistic. Together, they go back to diagnosis day and talk about what they wish they knew, what they'd do differently, and what they'd say to each other — and to you — if they could go back. This episode is not heavy. It's honest, it's real, and yes — it's funny. Because sometimes that's the only way through. What we cover: What diagnosis day actually looked and felt like for each of them — the unfiltered version The things they did in those early days they'd absolutely tell themselves NOT to do (the 2am Google spiral, anyone?) The one thing each of them would tell themselves if they could go back How to trust your instincts when the medical system feels overwhelming What it looks like to build a support system that actually holds you The moment cancer stopped feeling like something happening TO them and started feeling like something they were navigating TOGETHER   If you're in the middle of a new diagnosis — this episode is for you. Share it with someone who needs it. Tag us @jendelvaux so we can cheer you on. Nothing in this episode is medical advice.

Emotional safety gets talked about a lot in relationships.But if you're honest, there are moments where something shifts, and you don't feel safe anymore.Maybe your partner said something a certain way.Or didn't respond how you needed them to. And suddenly, you feel guarded… distant… or unsure if it's safe to open up.In this episode, we're looking at what emotional safety actually requires—and why it can feel so hard to create, even when you care deeply about each other.Inside this episode, we:Break down the difference between what disrupts emotional safety externally vs. what's happening internallyExplore how your past experiences and attachment patterns shape how you interpret moments with your partnerUncover why certain interactions feel so much bigger than the moment itselfWalk through the core conditions that actually create emotional safety in a relationshipHelp you understand what allows you to stay open, grounded, and connected—even in difficult momentsIdentify the kinds of experiences that teach your nervous system “it's safe to be me here”When you begin to understand emotional safety this way…You stop looking for it in just one place.And start learning how it's created—within you and between you.Ready to go deeper?If you're listening to this and realizing you want more emotional safety in your relationship—but aren't sure how to actually create it—this is the work I do with my private clients inside The Connected Marriage.If you'd like to explore working together, you can schedule a consultation here

When we talk about the issue of where to turn when you have marriage struggles, we are not talking about a small percentage of the population; we are talking about all of us. We must turn to Jesus Christ who loves us, has a plan for us, made us, died for us, rose again and wants to enter into relationship with us.

May we resolve to live not by lies, political correctness, wokeness, or ‘repressive tolerance‘ by any name. May we live by the Truth alone, and may God have mercy on us. Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to. — Theodore Dalrymple (Anthony Daniels) Frontpage Magazine interview (August 31, 2005) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, [even] in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. — Romans 10:8-13 KJV Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. — John 14:6 KJV Links Videos / Clips [x] = Played Triggered!

In this raw and unfiltered episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches break down real listener emails covering marriage betrayal, repeated deception, trauma bonding, commitment hesitation, engagement delays, and self-sabotage in relationships. From a husband hiding infidelity and lying about antidepressants, to a man who won't propose despite promises, to trauma-driven relationship sabotage, this episode dives deep into relationship trust issues, emotional manipulation, accountability, and what true commitment actually looks like. If you're struggling with cheating, broken trust, engagement anxiety, trauma bonds, or wondering whether to stay or walk away, this conversation will challenge you to see the truth clearly. You can expect direct relationship advice, hard truths about boundaries, honest discussions about integrity in marriage, emotional maturity, and how past trauma impacts romantic decisions. This episode explores how to rebuild trust after betrayal, when “grace” becomes self-betrayal, the danger of people pleasing, why actions matter more than words, and how to recognize when someone is stringing you along. If you're serious about personal growth, stronger relationships, and building a marriage based on truth instead of fear, this episode delivers clarity without sugarcoating.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

I think we all feel assaulted by how quickly the days seem to move by and how it is possible for us to care so deeply about something… and still feel like we are barely keeping up with it. Or even more honest—we are giving priority to so many other things and get distracted from investing in what matters most to us.At the top of this list—our marriage.Where we don't mean to be, but somehow we feel disconnected. It's not that we don't care or that we are indifferent; rather, it's that life is moving so fast and we have made it our normal to let the person we value the most next to Jesus receive the last of our energy, tenderness, and attentiveness of heart.Read more at cleerlystated.substack.com and subscribe to The Living Room!

In this “Marriage MythBusters” episode, Caroline and her husband, John, bust common marriage myths and share research-backed facts. They argue the “50% divorce rate” claim is outdated, say it's okay to go to bed angry because sleep helps emotions cool, and explain that having kids often lowers marital satisfaction at first rather than fixing a relationship. They discuss how affairs are often a symptom of growing apart, why conflict isn't a red flag if couples fight respectfully and with good timing, and why the “one soulmate” idea can reduce effort in tough moments. They add that long-term success depends more on shared values than pure “opposites attract,” question cohabitation as a “test drive” without commitment, warn against cruel radical honesty and damaging secrets, and reject keeping score by insisting marriage is 100/100. Tune in to hear their take after 20 years of marriage on some lessons they learned themselves.
