In this episode, Joe and I share one of the biggest challenges we faced in the early years of our marriage. The pain from Joe's past wasn't going to go away magically because we married, and it affected the very thing we both wanted out of marriage: intimacy. We couldn't play hide and seek forever.

In this episode, we sit down with Adam and Christina Hannan as they share the stories behind their smiles. Only 6 years into marriage, with three little kids, they were faced with a life-changing diagnosis of their fourth child, Myles, on the day he was born. After a twenty-month fight to survive, baby Myles passed into the arms of Jesus, leaving Adam and Christina heartbroken but not hopeless. They share how their pursuit of Jesus at every step kept their marriage strong while healing from this devastating loss.

"Every love story is beautiful, but ours is my favorite." In our first episode, we want to share why we started this podcast, and how we first met and fell in love. I might have been too young, and Joe might have had too much baggage to really make it work. But by pursuing God and each other, we were able to see God work miracles in our love story.

In Part 2 of Ready or Not Here I Come, we share the story of how Joe's house of cards fell and our marriage found healing. After a period of depression and facing his childhood wounds, Joe began to see his story in new ways. It took being real and vulnerable with God about the pain he carried that gave him have a greater capacity to love. The game of hide and seek was coming to an end.
