On this episode:  

Nate has a full house.  Aaron shares expertise on Autobots and Decepticons.

Our Guest: Dr. Juli Slattery, clinical psychologist, mom, wife, author, follower of Christ.  God puts the resources in place when we follow His calling. God has given husbands and wives unique areas of power, and they are based on needs and desires. None of this is control, it is power; Influence, not control. The zone of power is understanding your spouse's needs. Hardness of heart will kill marriage and relationship with the Lord. The 4 pillars of a healthy marriage: faithfulness, intimate knowing, sacrificial giving, passionate celebration. There is always hope; God loves to breathe life into dead things.

Books, resources, and contact: Dr. Juli Slattery
