How to Rekindle Intimacy & Guarding your Marriage from Emotional Affairs Ep. 698

What do you do when intimacy and connection in your marriage start to fade? How can you rekindle the spark, or better yet, keep it burning strong? In this episode, we talk about practical and biblical ways to nurture intimacy in all its forms. When you intentionally protect and prioritize closeness with your spouse, you not only build a marriage you truly enjoy, but you also guard your relationship against the dangers of emotional affairs.   Episode Highlights: Identify the different types of intimacy shared within marriage. The wholeness of your marriage matters. All forms of intimacy must be invested in. Boundaries keep your marriage protected.    Quotes from this episode: Your sex life is a thermometer, not a thermostat—it reflects the health of your relationship, but it can't set it.   When couples neglect emotional and spiritual intimacy, their physical relationship becomes hollow—a beautiful house with no foundation. Sooner or later, the cracks will show.   Without emotional intimacy, sex loses its power to truly bond you together. Without spiritual intimacy, you miss God's vision for marriage—a reflection of Christ and the Church.   If you wouldn't say, do, or share it with your spouse present, don't do it. That's your boundary—protect it fiercely.   If you have nothing to hide, living transparently should be easy—openness is the glue of trust in marriage.   Couple's Conversation Guide: When you think about intimacy in your marriage, which type (physical, emotional, spiritual, or relational closeness) feels the strongest right now? Which could use more attention? How do you personally feel most connected to me—through words, actions, time together, or something else? What boundaries do we need to set (personally and as a couple) to guard our marriage against the threat of emotional affairs? What's one thing you'd love for us to do together that would bring more joy, fun, or connection into our marriage? Mentioned in this Episode: Awesome Marriage is on Instagram!

Every marriage goes through seasons where spouses see the health of their relationship differently. Our unique physical needs, emotional capacities, and family backgrounds shape the expectations we bring into marriage and the ways we handle conflict. If you're in a season where you feel unheard or disconnected, this episode offers practical ways to pursue your spouse, tools for having the hard conversations, and encouragement to take ownership of your part in the struggle. Most importantly, it will remind you that God cares deeply about you and your marriage, and you can trust Him to guide and protect it.   Episode Highlights: Each spouse has different emotional needs and brings different emotional baggage into a marriage.  It's important to approach the content spouse with grace. Men and women have different relational needs.  Just because you don't talk about, or acknowledge issues, doesn't mean they will just go away. Even if you feel lonely and isolated and unheard in your marriage, you can trust the Lord with your heart.    Quotes from Today's Episode: Some people have a higher tolerance for dysfunction or distance in relationships. Couples may be sharing responsibilities without sharing their hearts. Sometimes the content spouse is suppressing their emotions.  Acknowledging your part opens up the door for real conversation. It's ok to feel angry or frustrated, but don't let that cause you to sin. You're responsible for learning to manage your emotions. A healthy marriage requires two people who are both willing to grow. Timing and approach are everything. Scripture should be a guide not a weapon.    Couples' Conversation Guide: How do you rate the health of your marriage right now? What do you think your spouse would rate your marriage? (If you don't know, ask them!) How safe do you feel to be vulnerable in your marriage?  What do you think your spouse would rate how safe they feel in your marriage? (If you don't know, ask them!) How can you show your spouse that their feelings matter to you, even when you don't understand them? Can you identify an unhealthy pattern or rhythm in your marriage? What one positive step can you take toward changing that pattern or rhythm together?

Rather than jumping straight into a costly and time-intensive agency review, consultancies are increasingly suggesting services that evaluate the existing relationship, and potentially improve both the agency and brand's practices. Plus, Group Black is changing its name to Portrait Media Group. In an exclusive interview with Ad Age, co-founder Bonin Bough explained the reason as well as the company's future path.

Are you truly satisfied, or always chasing more? This week we sit down with author Bobby Jamieson to talk about his book Everything Is Never Enough and the wisdom of Ecclesiastes. We'll unpack why your spouse can't be your joy, your job can't be your purpose, and your family can't give ultimate meaning. Real joy comes only from God; the giver, sustainer, and comforter. Anything else leaves us empty. Our hope is this conversation points you back to the only source who satisfies.   Episode Highlights: We are searching the world for a satisfaction that only comes from Him. It's a crushing weight to expect our spouse to meet needs that only the Lord can meet. Desiring happiness and trying to create it will never work.  A life of ease doesn't equal a life of joy.  Marriage is a gift to be nurtured. It's daily decisions to care for, to provide for, to invest in your marriage.    Quotes from Today's Episode: Happiness is a byproduct. If you just try to chase happiness directly, you're not really gonna get it. The world leaves us wanting. That eternity in our hearts is ultimately a longing for God. Only He can satisfy. Only He can fill our hearts. We are often tempted to seek that total good from our spouse. If you bring that expectation to your husband or wife, you will crush them. A lot of the joy of marriage arises as your laboring, as your communicating, as your toiling together.  If you view all of life as a gift of God then you can give up that need for control. Marriage a whole lot of daily little kindnesses.  Couples' Conversation Guide: When's the last time you thanked God for your spouse?  Where do you find it difficult to enjoy your “lot”? When you consider your spouse, do you consider the fact they are a “gift” from the Lord?  What's one way you can serve your spouse today?   Mentioned in this Episode: You need a copy of Everything is Never Enough: Ecclesiastes' Surprising Path to Resilient Happiness Find Awesome Marriage on Instagram Want an opportunity to dig into God's Word with your spouse?

Is your spouse married to their job, or are you? In today's episode, we're talking about what happens when work takes priority over marriage and how couples can recognize the signs before it causes lasting damage. Let's talk about why this is such a common struggle, what Scripture says about balancing work and marriage, and how to reconnect when work has created distance. If you're feeling like your relationship is playing second to a career, this one's for you. Let's dive in.   Episode Highlights: God gave us ambition and talents for a reason. Work balance in marriage is a common struggle. We tried to look at struggles as growth opportunities instead of failures Society adds to the pressure we feel to pursue success first. If conversations become logistical or date nights become extinct you may be prioritizing work over your marriage. There's a biblical order, that when we get that order right, everything else finds its proper place. Prayer reminds us who our work is truly for. Quotes from Today's Episode: The issue is when our ambition becomes our identity. When we believe our value comes from our next promotion. We are sacrificing our family for our ego. Our culture has us believe rest is laziness. Providing isn't just about money. Your spouse needs your presence, your attention, and your emotional availability. Scripture makes it clear that work is good. We are created in the image of a working God. Bu work has its place in the greater order, and that place isn't first.. Rest and relationship are sacred. Boundaries aren't restrictions. They are protections. Create rituals that prioritize connections. Our ultimate provision isn't in our performance, it's in God's faithfulness. See what happens when you're physically forced to be present with one another.   Couples' Conversation Guide: What one daily ritual can you begin this week to show your spouse and your marriage the energy it deserves. (coffee in the morning, lunch time phone call, prayer in the evening, etc.) When you hear the word “boundaries” do you automatically feel restricted? How can we implement some boundaries that feel like protection instead?  Does our calendar reflect our heart for keeping our marriage first? If not, where can you begin to say “no” so that you can say “yes” to your marriage?

Counseling is incredibly valuable. Jason and Lauren are huge proponents of marriage counseling, coaching and investing in marriage in a way that invites outside input from experts who can give great feedback to help couples grow in their connection. But it's so common for couples to spend years in sessions and workshops and retreats without ever experiencing lasting breakthrough. Why? Because no matter how good the tools are, they don't work if certain foundations aren't in place.In this episode, pastors and coaches Jason and Lauren Vallotton unpack some of the hidden reasons couples stay stuck—even with professional help—and how to create the kind of environment where real change is possible.They explore:Why solving problems without first building connection is like trying to spend from an empty bank account.How misdiagnosing root issues keeps couples treating the wrong thing—and stuck in painful cycles.Why communication tools and boundaries fail if you don't understand your actual relational cycle.How “making things fair” in sessions can unintentionally block radical ownership—something both spouses need in order to break patterns.Why safety is the soil for growth, and how tools can feel like weapons if emotional safety isn't present.The importance of “turning toward” your spouse and focusing on one clear target at a time.This conversation offers fresh perspective and practical guidance for anyone longing for deeper transformation in their marriage.PatreonIf you've enjoyed this podcast, would you consider financially supporting the show?
