The Israelites gather to confess their sins and seek forgiveness from God. This powerful psalm, attributed to the Levites, is a beautiful expression of God's faithfulness and love for his people, despite their constant rebellion and disobedience: The Israelites, feeling convicted after hearing the law read to them, come together to fast, wear sackcloth, and mourn their sins. The Levites lead the people in a psalm of praise and worship, highlighting God's glorious name and his role as the creator of the universe. The psalmist recounts God's mighty acts, from the deliverance from Egypt to the giving of the law on Mount Sinai. Despite the Israelites' repeated disobedience and rebellion, God remains faithful, providing for their needs and sustaining them in the wilderness for forty years. As we reflect on this psalm, we're reminded of God's unwavering love and faithfulness, even in the face of our own disobedience. The speaker encourages listeners to consider their own relationship with God, recognizing that our works don't save us, because God already did the work. Join us as we explore this powerful psalm and its relevance to our lives today. Related Episodes: Romans 8:28-39 (From Christ) - If God Is Loving, Why Do We Go Through Trials?

#Bible #Biblia #Jesus #JesusChrist #FeedingThe5000 In the book of Matthew, it is written that Jesus had compassion for the people who followed Him and healed the sick. Do we truly understand that all our needs are met when we place our full trust in Him?
True faith is about living out that faith through obedience and good works: James' message is often misunderstood as contradicting Paul's teachings - but here's why that is not the case. Faith without works is dead. Does this mean that works are necessary for salvation? Lip service to God is useless, just like telling someone in desperate need to "go in peace" without providing any help. Jenn encourages listeners to test every spirit and beware of false prophets who may appear to be doing good but are actually corrupt.

We all want to know where we belong, but whose family resemblance do our daily lives actually show? Today Pastor Alan and Ed Upton dive into 1 John 3 for a spiritual paternity test to see if we are living for ourselves like Cain, or laying down our lives for others like Christ.
This episode explores the significance of the Feast of Booths, its connection to Jesus, and what it means for Christians today. The people of Jerusalem learn about the Feast of Booths for the first time. They discover that this feast was a time for celebration, joy, and remembrance of God's provision, just like the water in the wilderness. How Jesus fulfilled the Feast of Booths in a profound way, connecting it to his message of being the water of life. Should Christians today celebrate the Jewish holidays?

Every day, we are surrounded by voices telling us what to believe, what to choose, who to trust, and where to go next.But not every voice deserves your attention. Not every opportunity is the right one. Not every open door is from God.So how do you know what is true? How do you recognize the difference between wisdom and pressure, peace and comfort, God's voice and your own emotions?In this message, we'll talk about discernment; how the Holy Spirit helps us slow down, test what we hear, and take the next faithful step with confidence.Notes can be found in the YouVersion app under Events.

Joining me today are Dave and Ann Wilson who have written a brand new book about what it looks like to speak life into our marriages; not just with the words we say, but also in the thoughts we choose to dwell on. We'll talk about why trying to be your spouse's Holy Spirit never works, why kindness is actually one of the most rebellious things we can do in today's world, and how reframing our inner dialogue can change the way we manage conflict. Whether you've been shouting to be heard, or quietly holding back the pain of unspoken expectations, today's conversation will offer biblical wisdom, practical tools, and fresh hope for building a marriage that reflects Christ's love. We pray this episode encourages you! Episode Highlights: How you approach the conversation matters. Hope and joy can only be in the Lord. Your words have the power to build up or tear down your spouse. Gratitude for your spouse can change your perspective of your spouse. Quotes from Today's Episode: "Men go where they're affirmed. They go there." - Dave Wilson "I realize like when I'm in the Word, I look at things different. I look at the world different. I look at Dave different. And it started, God's Word started to change me." - Ann Wilson But there's something that's really holy about seeing greatness in a person and being able to communicate it in some way." - Ann Wilson "I had put all my hopes and dreams in Dave. I'd taken them off of Jesus and I was like, you could make me happy. And it's easy to get into that rut of like, if you would just do X, Y, Z, I could be more content." - Ann Wilson God's given us to each other to sharpen one another- Dave Wilson Speak life to your husband. Bring him back to be the man God created him to be. We can help shape how our husbands and how our kids feel about themselves, but we have to first connect with Jesus. - Ann Wilson What good does it do to only think of the negative? When I'm in the Word, I see the world different. I see Dave different. You can't say everything you feel! Couples' Conversation Guide: How do we typically approach hard conversations with each other—and what could we do to make those moments feel safer and more affirming? Have we unintentionally placed our hope or happiness in each other instead of in God? What would it look like to shift that back to Jesus as our source of joy? What is one thing I genuinely admire or am grateful for in you that I may not say often enough? How can we be more intentional about calling out the good in each other?

James makes the argument that it is better to be merciful than judgmental: How the OT laws still apply to modern Christians. Should Christians follow the OT laws? Jesus came to "fulfill" the laws and not destroy them - what that means for us. Breaking one of the smallest commandments makes one a lawbreaker of the whole law. Why it's important to have a brotherhood with your fellow Christian - so that we know what they struggle with and what they are in need of. The definition of love from the Bible. It's not the same as the world's understanding of love, which can lead to anarchy. Here's other amazing content from P40!

Cornerstone Wesleyan Church, North Gower is taking 2026 to read through and preach through the Bible using the "One Story That Leads To Jesus" Bible reading plan (created by "The Bible Project"). To this end, Pastor Nate and Pastor Dan are recording their usual "sermon prep" conversation as a podcast so you can get a bird's eye view of the process, and perhaps grow in your own understanding and faith. This conversation is rough and unfinished, and not everything we talk about will make its way into the final teaching. But it hopefully gives you some additional food for thought. You can find the Bible Project here https://bibleproject.com/ You can find Cornerstone's Bible reading plan on YouVersion at bit/ly/bible2026 If that link doesn't work, try this one: https://bible.com/reading-plans/63058/together/77575397/invitation?token=2fhhVCf64-7PERhIujBwQA&source=share Or you can scan the QR code on the Podcast thumbnail!

In this week's episode, Dr. Kim and Mrs. Nancy unpack the powerful topic of expectations—focusing on how to clearly express what you need from your spouse. With honest conversation, a willingness to listen, and an open heart, you can transform how you communicate and connect in your relationship. Quotes from this episode: "I just thought you knew. And when you didn't I would go along and get resentful" "We were trying to fit each other in the mold." "Our first big argument scared the heck out of me. My unrealistic expectation was that we would never fight." "It's a good idea to have a signal or cue so that you make your spouse aware." Questions for Reflection: What are some expectations—spoken or unspoken—that we each bring into our marriage, and how well do we feel they've been understood by each other? When was a time we misunderstood one another because expectations weren't clearly communicated? What can we learn from that moment? How can we create more space in our relationship for honest, judgment-free conversations about what we each need or hope for? What's one expectation we can both express more clearly this week—and how can we support each other in meeting it with love and grace?

Church must be different than the world: The importance of not showing partiality among Christians. No Christian is above another, regardless of their social status or wealth. James's example of a wealthy person and a poor person entering a meeting place highlights how we often show favor to the wealthy. God chooses those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom. Wealth can corrupt individuals and make them prioritize material possessions over their faith. In contrast, the poor often have a richness of faith that comes from relying on God for their needs. This episode stresses that showing partiality is not only unloving but also encourages disunity in the church, forming cliques and making others feel like outsiders.

In the West, we often skip over chapters like this because we don't care about family names or random people, but in Nehemiah's day, family name meant everything: God put it on Nehemiah's heart to gather the nobles and rulers to list the people by genealogy, which is a crucial task for repopulating the city of Jerusalem. Why did God put this on Nehemiah's heart when Ezra already did it?

In this episode, Dr. Kim sits down with Ron Deal to talk about what it really means to build a mindful marriage. Ron shares lessons from his new book, Mindful Marriage, and how restoration therapy helped him and his wife Nan find healing and deeper connection. Together, they explore how faith, self-awareness, and emotional regulation can transform your relationship from the inside out. Episode Insights: Authenticity is the foundation of lasting happiness. Emotional dysregulation is normal. Our brains respond to threat, not fairness. Pain cycles drive repeated conflict. Growth and redemption matter more than blame. Quotes from Today's Episode: 'Happy wife, happy life' sounds catchy, but in reality, it's an empty promise. Lasting happiness in marriage comes from authenticity, not performance or pretending everything is okay. Every single one of us gets thrown off-balance emotionally. Some stay there longer, others move through it quickly, but emotional dysregulation is part of the human experience. There's nothing wrong about you because you get dysregulated. The brain can't tell the difference between a rattlesnake, a near-miss in traffic, or your spouse's criticism. Threat is threat. Our brains are wired for survival, not perfect communication. You don't have fifty different fights in marriage. You just have one ongoing pain cycle. Once you identify and understand your pain cycle, you can finally move beyond it together. Ignoring your pain doesn't make it go away—if anything, it makes your pain stronger, more insistent, and harder to escape. It's easy to point out the flaw in someone else, but it's vital to focus on your own growth. You may not forget your pain, but you can redeem what it does in your life. Choosing redemption over resentment is liberating. Couples Conversation Guide: Are there areas in our marriage where we tend to "perform" or pretend things are okay instead of being real with each other? When conflict or hurt arises between you, how aware are you of what's really going on beneath the surface—your emotions, triggers, or past experiences? What's one practical step you can take this week to be more mindful in your marriage—whether that's pausing before reacting, praying together, or choosing to listen with empathy?

This episode delves into James chapter one, focusing on the importance of putting away anger and being swift to hear and slow to speak. The anger of man doesn't produce the righteousness of God. The different types of anger, including the long-lasting, deep-seated kind that can hinder the righteousness of God in our lives. Being doers of the word, not just hearers. A discussion of James's analogy of a person looking at their natural face in a mirror, forgetting what kind of person they are after seeing themselves. James warns against being a hearer of the word and not a doer.

We're back with another verse of the day episode! In these episodes, our hosts discuss YouVersion's Verse of the Day (from the Bible App) with little to no warning on what it is.In this episode, Trevor and Bailey talk about Psalm 34:18, talking about the contents before and after it, the role of biblical poetry, and how to see this verse for our relationship with God today!Join the conversation by letting us know what you think about the verse in the comments below!
Today, we are sharing a new lesson God has been teaching us about living in light of the Great Commission as God's people. God has increased our desire to really LIVE in light of eternity and to be willing to change maybe old habits and comfortable routines to line up with what we see in the New Testament. So, we are looking at the Scriptures and asking the question- what was normal life like for the early church? What characterized their lives? In this episode, we highlight one important theme that we have found. Listen to these 9 Scriptures and see what theme emerges: 9 examples in the book of Acts: Acts 2:46: “day by day, attending the temple and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts.” Acts 2:47: “praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.” Acts 5:42: “And every day, in the temple and from house to house, they did not cease teaching and preaching that the Christ is Jesus.” Acts 6:1: “Now in these days when the disciples were increasing in number, a complaint by the Hellenists arose against the Hebrews because their widows were being neglected in the daily distribution.” Acts 16:5: “So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and they increased in numbers daily.” Acts 17:11: “…they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.” Acts 17:17: “So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and the devout persons, and in the marketplace every day with those who happened to be there.” Acts 19:9: “…he withdrew from them and took the disciples with him, reasoning daily in the hall of Tyrranus.” Acts 20:31: “Therefore be alert, remembering that for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish every one with tears.” In the New Testament church, there was: Daily outreach (proclamation, reasoning with others) Daily time in the Word (teaching, examining) Daily fellowship (breaking bread in homes) Daily ministry (distribution for the widows) Daily increase A few ideas for your own action steps: 1- Every morning surrender your day to God and ask for opportunities to share the gospel and serve and encourage others. 2- Pray for the lost daily. Our team in our city prays for the lost in our city every day at 12:12 pm – if you want to join us, please email us. 3- If you're not already reading the Word daily, there are plenty of great daily reading plans online, or you can use the YouVersion app. 4- How often are you getting real Christian fellowship? Not just tuning into an online church service, but having real conversations about God and how you're doing. 5- Use your online presence to share biblical encouragement! Think about the people who follow you and how you can use that platform to speak about Christ and give people hope. Find the full study on our webpage.

In this episode, the Israelites are rapidly rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem. Sanballot, Tobiah, and Gesham, try to intimidate Nehemiah into stopping the project: They send Nehemiah letters, claiming that he's planning to rebel against the king and become the ruler of Judah. People who are doing good for God usually face opposition and false accusations. Nehemiah's discernment and faith are put to the test when a prophet named Shemaiah tries to convince him to go into the temple for safety. The wall is completed in just 52 days - how excavation has proven that the wall was built very quickly. The episode touches on the theme of false prophets and the importance of testing their claims. Jenn reminds listeners to be cautious of people who claim to have prophecies or messages from God, and to do their due diligence in verifying their claims.

#bible #biblia #Jesus #JesusChrist #disciples #discipleshipjourney In this podcast, we learn that we are sons of the Kingdom if we have ears to hear and hearts that are willing to submit to Christ and follow Him.
It's easy to get caught up in the idea that God is the one tempting us to sin. But that's not the case. In today's episode, we explore the nuances between testing and temptation: The definition of "temptation" and how it is different from testing. A discussion of Eve and Jesus, two people who were tempted. One gave in to temptation, the other resisted. God gives us a way out of temptation, but we must put on the full armor of God to prepare ourselves for the challenges we'll face. A discussion of Abraham and Job, who illustrate testing and God's sovereignty. Why we can expect to be tested as Christians. With a mix of biblical teaching and personal stories, this episode will help you navigate the complexities of life as a Christian. If you're looking for a deeper understanding of God's role in your life, and how to distinguish between testing and temptation, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode, Jenn discusses Nehemiah chapter five, where the Israelites are facing internal problems that hinder the rebuilding of the Jerusalem wall: The mistreatment of the poor by the wealthy and powerful in Jerusalem, who are charging exorbitant interest rates and selling their fellow Jews into bondage. This is a clear violation of the Old Testament laws, which prohibit charging interest to fellow Jews and selling them into slavery. The divide in Jerusalem - a major concern given the city's already precarious situation. Nehemiah takes action by calling a meeting with the nobles and rulers and urging them to stop charging interest and selling their fellow Jews into slavery. The nobles agree to stop charging interest and restore the people's fields, vineyards, and homes.

What if marriage was never meant to be primarily about your happiness? In this episode, Dr. Kim sits down with Randy and Rozanne Frazee, authors of Encountering God's Love from Genesis to Revelation, to explore how God's design for marriage is part of a much bigger story. Together, they discuss how understanding God's love throughout Scripture can transform the way couples view their relationship, shifting the focus from chasing happiness to living out a covenant that reflects Christ's love. Randy and Rozanne share wisdom from their own marriage, practical ways couples can encounter God together, and encouragement for those who feel spiritually disconnected. You'll learn why spiritual intimacy doesn't require grand gestures, how your relationship with God directly impacts your relationship with your spouse, and why counseling can be one of the healthiest investments you make before a crisis ever arrives. Whether you're in a thriving season or feeling stuck, this conversation will help you see your marriage through a wider lens, one that is rooted in God's purpose, sustained by His love, and strengthened through intentional connection. Episode Highlights Marriage Was Designed for More Than Happiness How God's Bigger Story Gives Marriage Greater Purpose Your Relationship with God Shapes Your Relationship with Your Spouse Simple Ways to Build Spiritual Intimacy Together Why Counseling Should Be Preventative, Not Just a Last Resort Practical Steps for Reconnecting When You Feel Spiritually Disconnected Key Takeaway The healthiest marriages aren't built by pursuing happiness first. They're built by pursuing God together, faithfully living out your covenant commitment, and allowing His love to shape the way you love one another. Quotes from This Episode: Randy Frazee Quotes "The closer we move to Christ, the closer we move to each other." "Marriage is really more about sacrifice. God instills this amazing agape love in you, and your job is to pour it out to others—especially your spouse." "The pursuit wasn't happiness. The pursuit was fulfilling our covenant commitment. As a result of that, we received happiness." "When you go after the feeling of happiness, it almost always devastates the relationship you're in. When you go after the responsibility of being like Christ for the sake of others, happiness often follows." "Marriages don't drift toward intimacy—they drift toward chaos. That's why intentionality matters." "The love you have to offer apart from God will eventually get you into trouble. You need God's love flowing into you before it can flow through you." Rozanne Frazee Quotes "I can't put expectations on him because he will always let me down. God will never let me down." "Marriage in Scripture is never presented as a right. It's presented as a responsibility." "The wall of resentment goes up very quickly, but it comes down one brick at a time." "Knowing that God loves me unconditionally gives me the freedom to risk loving another person." "If you want your husband to become more of a spiritual leader, encourage what he's doing instead of criticizing what he's not doing." "As you grow closer to God, you'll naturally grow closer to each other." "Don't wait until the last minute to get help. Go early. Go often. Go preventatively." Dr. Kim Quotes "We can't put our marriage on the back burner for eighteen years while we raise kids and expect it to still be thriving when they're gone." "You'll never regret carving out intentional time for your marriage, but you will regret not doing it." "Your obedience is to God. Keep doing what God is calling you to do, whether your spouse responds immediately or not." "A thirty-second prayer, a verse of the day, a simple step—just start somewhere. God can grow it from there." "What makes the difference isn't doing marriage perfectly—it's continually coming back to God's design for it." "Sometimes the most important thing a couple can do is simply make the time to reconnect." Time to Talk About It: What is one thing you see God doing in me (your spouse) right now that you appreciate and want to encourage? Have there been times when we've expected each other to meet needs that really need to be taken to God first? What's one small thing we could do this week to be more intentional about growing closer to God together? Is there anything we've been putting off talking about that would be better to address now instead of letting it sit?

What does it look like when 40 years of faithfulness meets a brand-new playbook? Rob Hoskins, president of OneHope, joins host Justin Forman for a wide-ranging conversation about the moment we're living in—and why the pioneer era of missions must give way to a new collaborative missiology. From a father's prophetic vision of children having access to evil things on handheld devices (before mobile phones existed) to building one of the world's most far-reaching children's Scripture engagement ministries, Rob's story is a masterclass in generational faithfulness, innovative disruption, and Kingdom-minded collaboration. OneHope has delivered God's Word to children in every country of the world, in hundreds of languages, through print, film, and digital platforms—including the Bible App for Kids in partnership with YouVersion. Now, as the pace of change accelerates and the global church diversifies, Rob makes the case that collaboration isn't just smart strategy. It's biblical obedience. Key Topics • The prophetic vision that launched OneHope: decades before the smartphone, Rob's father saw how the enemy would target children through devices in their hands. He heard God say, "The only thing that will overcome these lies is truth. My word is truth. Take my word, give it to every child in the world." • From pioneer to collaborative missiology: Why the tactics that grew Christianity in sub-Saharan Africa from 4% to 65% in a century won't be enough for the challenges ahead. • Innovation requires failure: How two failed mobile scripture experiments cost millions—and made the Bible App for Kids possible. • The intergenerational handoff: Rob's father stepped down at the top of his game, saying 'It's when you're at the top of your game that the game's about to change.' • Close the Bible Gap collaborative: Six agencies pooling resources for Bible access in the world's least-reached places—creating shared measuring systems, logistics, and one-stop resourcing for frontline church planters. • Why 1.6–1.8 million nonprofits signals a problem: Comparing the fragmented ministry landscape to the market's consolidating instinct—and why 'God told me' can become a sacred cow that blocks accountability. • Democratizing missions: The global church is 75% non-Western—and collaborative missiology finally gives the majority world church not just a seat at the table, but a hand in building it. Notable Quotes "The only thing that will overcome these lies is truth. My word is truth—take my word, give it to every child in the world." — Rob Hoskins (quoting his father's vision), Page 2, 00:02:19 "What got us here isn't gonna get us to where we need to go." — Rob Hoskins, Page 5, 00:14:57 "I would be very unfaithful if I wasn't collaborating." — Rob Hoskins, Page 7, 00:23:02
In this episode of The Bible Explained, we're starting the Book of James, a letter written by the brother of Jesus. James is known for its practical wisdom and straightforward advice on how to live a life pleasing to God: How to gage if we are mature in our faith. The dangers of loving money too much. We can ask for wisdom from God, but we must do so with faith and without doubting. The importance of humility, whether rich or poor.

As the city of Jerusalem begins to rebuild its walls, a surprising obstacle emerges in the form of Sanballot, a governor from a neighboring region, who's determined to sabotage the project. In this episode, we explore the challenges faced by Nehemiah and the people of Jerusalem as they work to complete the wall, despite the opposition from their enemies: God's will doesn't always mean things will be easy. Despite the progress made on the wall, the people face numerous obstacles, including the mocking and insults from their enemies. Nehemiah's faith in God remains unwavering, and he prays for God's protection and guidance. The people of Jerusalem continue to work tirelessly, every person taking up arms to defend their city. As the situation escalates, Nehemiah takes steps to prepare the people for potential attacks, setting up guards and encouraging them to remain vigilant. Join us as we delve into the story of Nehemiah four and explore the lessons we can learn from his faith and perseverance. Listen in to hear how Nehemiah's story can inspire and encourage you in your own walk with God.

Prayer, Bible reading, and spiritual leadership are all good things, but what happens when faith becomes a source of tension instead of connection in marriage? In this episode, Dr. Kim tackle the unhealthy spiritual dynamics that can quietly create distance between spouses: spiritual superiority, spiritual withdrawal, and using faith as a weapon. While most couples don't intend to hurt each other spiritually, it's easy to fall into patterns that leave one spouse feeling judged, inadequate, or alone. He discusses why spiritual loneliness can be so painful in marriage, how comparison and pressure shut down connection, and what it looks like to pursue spiritual intimacy in a way that invites both spouses closer to God and each other. If you've ever felt frustrated that your spouse isn't where you'd like them to be spiritually, or if you've ever felt like you could never measure up, this conversation offers practical encouragement and hope for building a healthier, more united spiritual foundation. Episode Highlights: When Faith Creates Distance Instead of Connection The Hidden Damage of Spiritual Superiority and Withdrawal Moving from Weaponized Faith to Shared Faith Quotes from This Episode: God designed marriage as the most intimate of all earthly relationships. There's a oneness God intended for marriage that touches every aspect of life. When one spouse longs to pray together and it never happens, it doesn't just feel frustrating it feels lonely. Loneliness can turn into resentment or even despair. Nothing will shut your spouse down faster than feeling spiritually inferior in their own home. The spouse that feels like they can never measure up will stop engaging. When scripture becomes a sword instead of a shared foundation something has gone badly wrong. Spiritual growth cannot be forced. You can model it. You can invite. But you cannot drag your spouse into a deeper faith any more than someone could have dragged you. God does that work. Time to Talk About it: Are you feeling disconnected from your spouse spiritually? If you are, have you approached your spouse honestly with your concerns?

This episode of the Bible Explained Podcast delves into Hebrews 13:7-14, where Jenn emphasizes the importance of scrutinizing leaders and their conduct. The way the American church is set up can promote narcissism, with a single leader at the top, but this is not a scriptural system: The Bible calls for a system of shared leadership with checks and balances to ensure that no one leader goes off the rails. Imitate the faith of your leaders, but only if their conduct is in line with Scripture. Elders should be held to high standards, as seen in 1 Timothy and Titus, where specific guidelines are laid out for who can and cannot be an elder. The importance of not being carried away by various and strange teachings, and the need to double-check all theology with Scripture. Christians must separate themselves from the world and its teachings, just as Jesus did when He went outside the camp to suffer for our sins.

In this episode of the Awesome Marriage Podcast, Dr. Kim sits down with bestselling author Gary Chapman for a practical and honest conversation about what it really looks like to keep a marriage growing, not just surviving. They talk about why marriages don't just "stay the same," how couples slowly drift without realizing it, and what it takes to stay emotionally connected over time. Gary unpacks how love languages can shift through different seasons of life, why assumptions create so many problems, and how simple things like curiosity, communication, and daily check-ins can completely change the tone of a relationship. If you've ever felt like you and your spouse are just "off" lately, or you want to be more intentional about loving well, this conversation gives you real, doable ways to start moving back toward each other again. Episode Highlights: Without intentional effort, connection naturally fades into distance or "roommate mode." Couples often miss each other because they're expressing love in ways that feel right to them, not in ways that actually land with their spouse. When couples stay teachable and intentional, even conflict becomes an opportunity for deeper connection. Quotes from this Episode: Gary Chapman: "Marriage is either going to grow or regress—there's really no drifting in place." "I don't talk about a perfect marriage. I talk about a growing marriage." "Life satisfaction is found in relationships, not in the accumulation of things." "We cannot read each other's minds—you have to ask questions and listen." "The objective is not to win the argument—the objective is to find a solution together." "It's no fun to live with a loser. Why would you create a loser? You're on the same team." "Love has to be communicated in a way that's meaningful to the other person." Kim Kimberling: "I don't think I'll ever learn everything there is to know about Nancy in a lifetime." "Marriage is an adventure because you're always discovering new things about each other." "If you're not feeling loved, turn into your marriage—not outside of it." "Assumptions in marriage are usually way off." "The distractions we entertain today are often stealing the connection we could be building at home." "There's so much value in the person God put in front of you to do life with." "Small, intentional steps done consistently really do make a difference over time." Time to Talk About it: Where in our marriage are we currently growing—and where might we actually be drifting without realizing it? In what ways am I trying to show love to my spouse, and are those actually the ways they most feel loved? How well do we really ask questions and stay curious about each other instead of assuming we already know what the other thinks or feels? What would it look like for us to build a simple daily rhythm of connection (even 10–15 minutes) to stay emotionally close? Mentioned in This Episode: Awesome Marriage is on Instagram!
