Since we were little girls, we have had thoughts and dreams of what our married life would be like. All of these were heightened when we found the man of our dreams and began to plan a life together.

But now the excitement of the wedding and moving in together has passed and things are not quite what you expected them to be. Something happened to that blissful romantic love that you had between one another and you have become a bit disappointed as to what marriage is really like and who this man is that you married.

But don’t worry, you didn’t make a mistake in who you married and this is perfectly normal. What you’re feeling right now is something that most, if not every, newly married couple goes through. It’s what you do next that will make the difference.

Today I’m sharing 3 right responses to move you past this phase and on to building a strong foundation for your marriage that will last a lifetime.

Let’s get started.

We all have an idea in our mind of what a perfect relationship looks like. However, I would imagine that most of our ideas might be a bit one-sided in how our relationship is going to meet our own wants and desires.

In scripture, we are given the example of a perfect relationship in the Trinity. One that is characterized by unity, love, willful submission, and trust.

Today we'll explore this perfect relationship and how following its example will help you to be a better wife and nurture a more loving, Christ-centered marriage.

Let’s get started.

It's true, not all husbands meet our expectations of the honest, hard working, caring, and respected man we dreamed of marrying. The way they think may be different, their level of integrity, or how they provide for the family may less than what you were raised with or the kind of man your father is.

When this happens, it’s easy to feel disappointed in your husband's behavior, actions, or how he treats you and others, making showing him any kind of respect seem impossible.

However, in this episode we will take a look at some practical ways that you can start fresh by wiping the slate clean, respect out of obedience to God, and make changes by sharing your wisdom and expertise.

Join me as we chat about what scripture teaches us on how to honor God's calling to be a respectful wife, even to a man who is seemingly unworthy of respect.

Let's get started.

When we are hurt by those closest to us, those who are suppose to be the people we can trust, the pain runs deep and it can be incredibly difficult to forgive.

You may be afraid to forgive and let go because if you let our guard down, it may happen again, causing more pain and making you look like a fool for trusting them. You may have tried to forgive but can't seem to get the thoughts and visions from replaying over and over again in your mind.

In this episode, we're diving into why forgiving someone is so crucial for your own healing, as well as three essential steps to help you truly forgive in your heart, let go of the pain, and move forward to restoring your relationship.

This will be a heart-to-heart chat that you won't want to miss, as I share with you some of my own struggles to forgive.

Let's get started.
