In this foundational episode, host Stephanie TeSlaa sits down with her husband, Mark, to explore how our upbringing and experiences shape what we believe it means to be a husband and a wife. Together, they return to Genesis 1–2 to examine God’s original design for marriage and its place in His world before distortion enters the story. The conversation begins to unpack the role of a husband through the Hebrew words abad and shamar, framing leadership as a priestly calling of responsibility and care rather than power or control.
