Friends, it's time we go there.

This episode is a response to some comments we have received in a previous episode about what biblical leadership and submission looks like in a marriage.

We also chat about what that looks like when it comes to sex and intimacy with your spouse.

We encourage both wives and husbands to listen to this together, because we think it will be a benefit to your marriage in some way (maybe get your husbands to skip the life update part as there is mention of some TMI girly stuff!)

We want to add a disclaimer that we are not qualified Pastors, Counsellors or Theological Experts on this subject. We are coming to this conversation having wrestled with a lot of these things in our own marriage, looking honestly at what Scripture says and how we can best apply that to our marriages.

In episode 62, Jess and Bella reflect on their mental health struggles over the years.

Collectively dealing with insomnia, depression, postpartum depression and anxiety, we reflect on some dark times and what God has taught us about Himself through those times.

We pray that this episode will be an encouragement to your faith, whether you have dealt with mental health struggles or any type of struggle that you have had to wrestle God with.
