What if "being faithful" means far more than just avoiding an affair? In this eye-opening episode, we unpack Value #4: Radical Faithfulness (Mark 10:1-9) – the bedrock of trust that lets you rest care-lessin your marriage. Discover why many "physically faithful" couples are emotionally unfaithful... and why that’s just as dangerous.

You’ll learn:

• Why physical faithfulness alone is incomplete (and what "emotional adultery" looks like)
• The 8-fold meaning of faithfulness: Trust, Confidence, Assuredness, Conviction, Fidelity, Truth, Permanence, Rest
• How avoidance breeds unfaithfulness (the husband who turned to porn/flirting to escape his critical wife)
• Why hobbies, workaholism, or secret crushes sabotage connection as much as affairs
• The critical difference between covenant (unconditional) vs. contract (performance-based)commitment

We confront hard truths:

• "If you’re using anything to avoid your spouse, you’re already unfaithful"
• "Blaming your spouse for your unfaithfulness is spiritual immaturity" (2 Tim 2:13)
• "All physical unfaithfulness begins with emotional detachment"

Special grace for:
• Singles • Widowed • Divorced • Those in broken trust
(Your stake in godly marriage matters!)

Ask yourself:

1. Can my spouse rest care-less knowing I’ll keep promises?
2. Where am I withholding parts of myself?
3. Do I depend on work/hobbies/fantasies more than my marriage?

Rebuild your safety net:

• Reject excuses ("I wasn’t getting what I deserved")
• Close escape routes (emotional, digital, relational)
• Anchor in covenant, not conditions

Tune in to discover why faithfulness isn’t dogged determination—it’s the freedom to be fully known, fully trusted, and fully secure.
