When it comes to having a healthy marriage, let alone being redeemed rescued, and restored, you absolutely need two to tango! We never want to mislead you into thinking one of us did enough to save our marriage. The reason we were able to have a redemption story, is because we BOTH surrendered our lives to the Lord, laid down our weapons, and met at the cross. It was our individual work of ourselves that led to the healing of our marriage. It will always take two willing people to heal what has been broken. This is our story.

For the majority of our marriage, finances have been a deep struggle for us. They are one of the main reasons that divorce seemed imminent. But God. Through this exhausting journey, we have learned a few things that we hope will encourage you through managing finances in your marriage and even finding gratefulness while living in a season of no.

Turning 40 has had us looking at life a bit differently these days. This last year has taken us to a place that has challenged our persepctive on life in so many ways.

2 Corinthians 10:5 talks about taking every thought captive to make them obedient to Christ. This means that we have to challenge the thought pattern of this world and our mind to what God's word said. But, how do we do that? Tune in to hear how Mandie uses this 3 step process to stay in control of her thoughts, weigh them against God's word and then begin to speak truth into the lies we believe.

This week, Scott and Mandie continue the conversation from last episode. (45) In that show, Mandie shared her testimony prior to dating Scott. This week, they take us into how God's deep love shown to through the forgiveness of her sins allowed her to show that same love towards Scott. Tune in to hear some more real, raw and relatable testimony that will surely speak to your heart.

The question has been asked now so many times as to how Mandie was able to begin the process of forgiveness towards Scott after his affair. The answer to that can be found in Mandie testimony and how she was rescued, redeemed, and restored before they started dating. Those who have been forgiven of much, forgive much. Tune in to hear Mandie's vulnerable & humble story of how the Lord rescued her from her Egypt.
