What We Didn't Know!

We didn't know!  We were so naive when we married almost 38 years ago.  New couples think they have all the wisdom, but you too probably found out what you didn't know after you said, "I do." In this episode we share what we had to learn about marriage - the hard way.  Leave a comment about something that you didn't know when you got married. You might help others!  We are all still learning and growing.  Hopefully, through our transparency, you can avoid some of the mistakes we made.

Attitude Is Everything

What's In Your Closet?

When is the last time you cleaned out your closet?  Did you find things you need to get rid of?  Are they not your style? Do they not fit anymore?  Are you still hanging on “just in case” you need them?  It’s a lot like the old sins we hang on to.  We need to look in the mirror and admit they don’t look too good.  The things we think we can still “wear” or “do” do not look appropriate anymore.  In this episode, Jeff and Debbie discuss what the Word teaches about sin, and why we continue to hold on to some old lifestyle habits.  They give Biblical reasons to clean up those sins, and practical steps to take once we choose to recognize our sinful habits, wanting to change. 

So, what’s in your closet???

I'm not Selfish

Jeff and Debbie talk about wounds caused from selfishness in the marriage.  When a husband or wife demands his or her own way, the marriage friendship is hindered.  Sin creeps into decisions made, ultimately impeding the spouse's relationship with God.
