In this episode of The Well Grounded Podcast, hosts Diane and Leigh Ann dive into a meaningful topic: Wife Life. What does Scripture actually say about being a wife? What does it mean to honor God through your marriage? And how should we understand verses like Ephesians 5:22 in today’s world?

Together, they unpack what it means to live out God’s design for marriage with strength, wisdom, and teamwork in our spiciest episode yet. They discuss the often-misinterpreted call for wives to “submit,” explore the powerful Hebrew word “Ezer” (helper), and reflect on how women can support their husbands while remaining deeply rooted in Christ.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What Ephesians 5:21–31 teaches about marriage
• What biblical submission really means (and what it doesn’t mean)
• The meaning of “Ezer” and the strength behind the word “helper”
• How to honor God through your role as a wife
• Practical ways to show love, respect, and partnership in marriage

This episode is especially encouraging for wives, engaged women, and those seeking a deeper biblical understanding of marriage and their role within it.

This week we are replaying a fan-favorite episode from Season 3, A GOOD Chat on Marriage. In this episode of The Well Grounded Podcast, hosts Diane and Leigh Ann are joined by two very special guests—their husbands, Tim and Dan—for an honest, faith-filled conversation about building a strong, lasting marriage.

Diane and Tim have been married for 28 years and have raised four children, while Leigh Ann and Dan have been married for 31 years with three children. Drawing from decades of marriage and parenting, they share encouragement and practical wisdom for couples navigating the everyday realities of married life.

This conversation centers on the idea that marriage is a journey, not a destination, and highlights the importance of being intentional with your time, communication, and connection—especially in busy seasons of life. From dating your spouse (even if that “date” is a trip to the grocery store) to modeling a healthy, loving marriage for your children, this episode offers relatable insight grounded in faith.

In this episode, we discuss:

•Why marriage requires ongoing intention, not perfection

•The importance of continuing to date your spouse

•Simple ways to prioritize time together in everyday life

•How modeling a healthy marriage impacts your children

•Finding effective communication rhythms that work for both spouses

This episode is especially helpful for newlyweds, couples preparing for marriage, and families with young children who want to build a marriage rooted in love, faith, and commitment.
