    Raising boys versus girls isn't just about pink versus blue. We welcome our three incredible sons: Tyler, Bryce, and Reece, who share the unique challenges of being raised in a pastor's home.

    Our sons share memories of countless hours spent at church, from summer construction projects to setting up church events that often felt like free labor but were family bonding moments in disguise. Mischief, childhood accidents, and hilarious anecdotes abound, offering a window into how these experiences shaped their strong work ethic and created lasting memories.

    Cooking, parenting, and faith come full circle as we discuss our family meals, sharing favorites like gumbo and taco soup while joking about cooking skills and burritos. Authenticity is the glue that holds these conversations together, and we wrap up by expressing our gratitude to our listeners, promising more engaging and heartfelt moments in future episodes.

    27. Manage Your Sexual Temptations
    May 23 2024
    Have you ever stared temptation in the eye, feeling its pull, yet knew the stakes if your grip on fidelity loosened? Hosts took a deep and honest look into the labyrinth of love, marriage, and the battles couples wage with sexual temptation. We strip away the veneer, confronting the harsh truths about sexual sin and temptation that can threaten the sanctity of matrimony. We delve into the biblical perspective, particularly Ephesians chapter five, to underscore the indelible link between love, respect, and the physical union that bonds a husband and wife.

    In the quest to safeguard the fortress that is marriage, boundaries are your best allies. We explore the nuances of interactions with the opposite sex, the snares of social media, and the small, yet significant, decisions that can bolster or break a marital bond. It's about more than just avoiding the obvious traps; it's about nurturing your marriage garden, pruning out the weeds of temptation before they take root.
