"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." -Proverbs 3:5-6 (ESV)

In this week's episode, Bob sits down with Jackie Bledsoe, a speaker, counselor, and author of the marriage self-help book, "The 7 Rings of Marriage". As one who had sworn off marriage completely and arrived at the altar with a ten-month-old daughter, Jackie describes how he stepped into marriage completely unprepared, explains the dangers of cohabitation, enjoying the fruits of marriage without making any true commitment, and finally, highlights the incredible importance of having marriage role models.

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” -Joshua 1:9 (ESV)

In this week's episode, Bob sits down with Sam Kelly, co-host of the nationally syndicated morning show "Scott and Sam" on THE FISH Christian radio stations. Sam shares the blessings and challenges that have come as a result of her interracial marriage, explains how God has used great trials in marriage and parenthood to change her for the better, and finally, reveals how a willingness to be around people who don't look like you and don't think like you is one of the most godly traits one can have. Enjoy!

"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act." -Psalm 37:4-5 (ESV)

When Fred Stoeker was playing baseball at Stanford, he had four girlfriends at the same time. He was having sex with three of them, and he was engaged to be married to two of them. Much like his father and grandfather before him, his sexuality was completely out of control. But then... God gave him a wake up call.

In this week's episode, Bob sits down with Fred Stoeker, the best-selling author of Every Man's Battle, a book series on sexual purity that has sold over 3,000,000 copies worldwide. Fred takes us into the darkest moments of his past, uncovers many lies about sex that he picked up when he was young, addresses the most common sex myths that still persist today, and finally, explains why God would make sex to be so very, very good. Enjoy!

"For I give water in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to my chosen people, the people whom I formed for myself that they might declare my praise." -Isaiah 43:20-21 (ESV)

Jim and Ginger Ravella both faced the unthinkable, the tragic loss of a spouse, well before their time. Both a part of military families, Ginger's nightmare began in an instant with a knock at the front door, while Jim's loss came slowly, painfully, over the course of many years. Today, they are happily married, and both are experiencing their second successful run at marriage.

In this week's episode, Bob asks Jim and Ginger to share about lessons learned in both of their marriages, the true definition of a "submissive" wife, and in light of Lindsay Vonn's proposal (re-proposal??) to her fiancé PK Subban over the holidays, how God intended for the role of male and female to be perfectly equal, yet totally different. Enjoy!
