In this honest and eye-opening episode of Feathered in Grace & Armor, Chadd & Gina dive into a topic that affects almost every relationship today—being offended. From feeling hurt by a spouse to feeling ignored when your kids don’t call, text back, or listen the way we expect, they unpack how easily offense can creep into marriages and families in today’s culture.

They also touch on the power of understanding your Primal Question, and how knowing your emotional drivers can change the way you hear—and react to—others. With authenticity and vulnerability, they talk about why hard conversations are necessary in a healthy marriage. Communicating your needs clearly is not wrong—and if someone chooses to be offended by honesty, that’s something they have to work through.

One truth they reinforce—echoing wisdom from their recent conversation with Dr. Lee—is simple but powerful:
 👉 Marriages take effort. Daily, intentional effort.

This episode is raw, relatable, and a reminder that strong relationships aren’t built on avoiding conflict—but on working through it with grace, honesty, and commitment.

Because real love isn’t perfect—it’s intentional.

In this honest and compassionate episode of Feathered in Grace & Armor, Chadd & Gina open up about a real-life moment that stopped them in their tracks. After overhearing a long, heated argument between neighbors—centered around parenting styles, favoritism, and the strain it was putting on their kids—it sparked a deeper conversation about the real challenges of blending families.

They talk candidly about how blending can work beautifully—and how sometimes, despite best intentions, it doesn’t. Different dynamics, different parenting approaches, and unresolved wounds can create tension that runs much deeper than what’s seen on the surface. With empathy and grace, they remind listeners that there’s always more to the story.

This episode isn’t about judgment—it’s about understanding, communication, and support for families navigating complex relationships.

💬 We always encourage our listeners to engage with us on social media and share their experiences.

In this reflective and challenging episode of Feathered in Grace & Armor, Gina leads the conversation with three powerful questions designed to help you step into 2026 with clarity and intention:

1️⃣ What worked well for you this past year?
2️⃣ What supplied you with fruit—abundance, joy, peace, and growth?
3️⃣ What supplied you with distraction, hurt, heartache, or anxiety?

Then comes the bonus question that invites real change… 🥁
 What would happen IF you did something different?

The episode also explores how we start our days—with gratitude or with grief—and how that choice shapes our mindset, relationships, and faith. Grounded in Scripture, Gina reflects on Matthew 12:34:

This conversation is an invitation to create accountability, align your heart with your actions, and move into 2026 lighter, wiser, and more intentional.
