In the latest episode from Art of Marriage Podcast, Understanding Your Assignment we discuss in detail what it means to be “Salt and Light”. In Matthew, Jesus explains that believers are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. It is our responsibility to be the change the world needs. No longer can we compromise with what the culture says, we must be different. We are the only example of Jesus that some people will ever meet and if we act like, look like, and talk like the world how can we expect to change the world.

In this most recent episode from Art of Marriage Podcast, Alexis and I have an in-depth conversation about on the topic, “Believing Again”. Within this episode you get to hear my personal testimony on how I lost almost faith and began to allow doubt and unbelief to enter into my heart. I always believed God for what he said, but there came a time within our marriage that I lost hope and struggled with trusting and believing. Sometimes in life, the facts, speak louder than our faith. When this happens, what do we do? How do we get back up? How do we believe and trust again?

Which has a greater influence on your life, the Seen or the Unseen? In the latest episode from Art of Marriage Podcast, Alexis and I take a closer look at this question and discuss how we as individuals allow what we see, feel, and hear to sometimes affect what we believe and what we know. God clearly states, "that we are fearfully and wonderfully made". We were created with intentionality and purpose, but whose report are you going to believe.

As you will hear, so many times we allow unseen factors to change our perspective. They begin to cloud our judgement, which then leads to doubt and unbelief. As the father in Mark 9:24, cried out "Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!" While the facts may be true, remember that they are temporary. "Faith, is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen"

In the most recent episode of Art of Marriage Podcast, Alexis and I discuss the importance of watching your words. The Bible teaches us that the power of life and death lies in the tongue. Our words can move us forward into who and what we have been called and destined to be or they can hold us hostage and keep us bound. We discuss in detail how we had to learn not to just control our tongue, but as importantly how to communicate with each other. As you will hear, our marriage was dying slowly, and the cause of death was how we were communicating with each other. We were tearing each other down instead of building each other up. The negative aspects of each other had become our focus so much that we didn’t even want to be in the same room with each other. Now, in year 15, we can say that we have learned how much power our words possess and that life and death is truly in the power of the tongue.

Art Of Marriage Podcast is back and we could be more excited for what is in store this season for you all. Season 3, episode 1 “Good Things Can Come From Dirty Places”.

In this episode Alexis and I discuss how things of value can come from places that appear to be worthless. Things are not always what they seem and if we are not careful we can overlook what God has for us because it doesn’t appear to have value.
