This is a very special episode as my wife joins me for the first time on a podcast. Together, we discuss an Easter tradition that started in a bumpy, and somewhat contentious, way several years ago, but quickly turned into a beautiful experience that now adds so much significance to our celebration of Holy Week. After hearing our story, we encourage everyone observing Easter to try something different this week, something uncomfortable, to step into the pain and uncertainty of Good Friday in a deeper way, in order to celebrate the joy of resurrection like never before. Happy Easter.

What does it look like to live out a marriage that is 100-100 (vs. 50-50)? That is “Give and Receive” (vs. Give and Take)? That is, to give 100% of yourself without trying to take what you want, but instead, patiently waiting to receive what comes back to you. In this episode, I read a chapter from my book, Ultra Marriage, which tells the story of a an extraordinary, yet trying, moment in my marriage that best encapsulates this perspective. For many readers, it is their favorite chapter in the book. Narrating this chapter, I didn’t realize how much emotion I still feel from these events over fifteen years later. It is a testament to the lasting power that one moment can have on a relationship.

In order to build a life on solid ground to prepare for whatever challenges, trials, or difficulties are ahead of us, we have got to get our homes in order! That starts with our marriages. Unfortunately, we have been taught a false narrative about what marriage really is and how it’s supposed to work. That narrative has contributed to half of all marriages ending in divorce. In this episode, I expose the lie we have bought into and share two fundamental principles that will open us up to the truth behind a successful marriage.

If you are like me, you watch the news cycle and scratch your head at much of what you see, particularly from our elected leaders at all levels and in all parties. The question so many of are asking is, “What can I really do to make adifference?” We feel insignificant and powerless most of the time. BUT WE ARE NOT! Ultimately, we hold all the power to impact our culture, country, and world right in our own homes. And that power starts with our marriages. In this episode, I will share why your MARRIAGE just might be the vehicle that can create more positive influence and change in America than anything else we, or anyone, can do.

Throughout Lent in 2024, I will share an answered prayer from the Bible as a YT Short. Going through scripture, I've identified 44 specific references to a prayer that were answered. Throughout Lent, let's spend more time in prayer than we do watching the news. Your prayers can have a greater impact on your life, your family, our country, and the world, than anything else you could do. We will see how prayer has changed the destinies of people and nations each day as we go through the Bible. Tune in and pray on.
