In this powerful episode of Men of Victory, host John Major sits down with Campus Pastor Juan Lopez, a retired Marine with 26 years of service who's now leading at Victory Life Church. Juan shares the transformative practice that revolutionized his marriage - asking his wife, "How's your heart with me?"

Juan reveals how this simple question creates vulnerability, strengthens communication, and helps him lead his family with purpose. Drawing from his military background and faith journey, he explains the concept of "extreme ownership" and why protecting your spouse's heart is your most important mission as a husband.

Learn practical steps to:
- Break free from the communication problems that plague 70-80% of marriages
- Create intentional moments with your spouse and children
- Take ownership of your role as the family leader
- Put down your pride and listen to truly hear your spouse
- Establish regular heart checks that transform your relationships
