Unrelenting Pursuit

We are so happy to be back for Season 7!

On today's episode we dive into where we see so many people get inadvertently stuck in their lives and in their marriage. Don't allow what once was stop you from stepping into what can be!

Don't overanalyze aspects of your life so much that you stay circling the drain and stuck in an unending cycle. You can't change what happened to you, but you can learn from the past, and you can change what you do in the future. Remember, God is a healer and redeemer.

As always, we would love to hear from you and please take the time to leave us a review as it helps make this resource available to others.

Better Sex - who doesn't want to be able to say they have this in their marriage. Typically, however, this is an area that is ignored until there is a problem or a person becomes entirely self -focused, instead of spouse focused. Couples need to learn to meet in the middle, to grow with one another, communicate with one another, and not take each other for granted!

There is also the reality of how to navigate this area after experiencing betrayal or trauma. Is it possible to heal, is it possible to actually transform this area after brokenness? Short answer, YES! God wants to be involved in your sex life and He wants you to have true intimacy with one another.

Remember, it is a privilege to know your spouse, it is a privilege to grow old with them, and it is a privilege to weave your lives together. Don't lose sight of that and don't ignore things until they become festering wounds.

Our challenge for this week is to ask your spouse how they feel most loved by you, and if needed, time to schedule some sexy time!

Oxford dictionary defines passive as "accepting or allowing what happens or what others do, without active response or resistance."

Jesus was not passive, and He doesn't call us to be. If you are a man, you need to balance being a servant and savage, a lion and a lamb. You need to provide, protect, and you need to preside. Is that what you are doing? If you are a woman, you need to release control, you need to have the hard conversations you need to help your man see who God has called him to be, and you need to stop trying to play every role in the home. Is that what you are doing?

Sometimes we think that letting someone experience the consequences of their actions is not demonstrating love. In reality, this is often the most loving thing we can do.

Boundaries are healthy and necessary to operate within God's design. When one operates outside of this reality we see so many people not stand for truth, settle for half way healing, and not experience genuine repentance. In doing that, so many people delay what God is doing in their life or their loved one.

The reality is that we cannot change someone, but we can let go of them to allow God to use the circumstances

Capacity Definition - "The maximum amount that something can contain."

Capacity has a great level of influence over every area, and it's important to recognize what depletes capacity in us individually, and also how we can increase capacity in our lives.

The reality is that there may be seasons where you need to learn to say no to friendships, extended family, time commitments, and even "good things" in order to protect your God thing. Every person needs to evaluate for themselves what this looks like, and be ruthless in protecting what matters. Don't allow crisis to necessitate what you could navigate today.

We often get questions about this season of life. This is a time when you are having to wait for something or someone, when things aren't going right, or you are just waiting for the fruition of something God has promised you. You may wonder how long you should wait, when you should stop waiting, and what is required of you while you are in this season. We go in depth on this episode and address what this looks like, and challenge you that waiting doesn't have to be passive, but should be active.

Please read Hebrews 11 and learn from those who have walked faith before you. You have an opportunity in the waiting places to show Jesus to others in a way that many can't or won't. Don't waste it.

Often we hear the questions of "why" and "why wasn't I enough, or "why didn't you choose me," when someone is walking through reconciliation. The answers to these questions can leave a couple in a circular phase of healing where neither one feels like they can win or move forward. We walk through some of the common setbacks and give some actionable steps to move you towards where you both want to be.

Is your marriage dangerous? The truth is, loving someone always involves an element of risk because your spouse has the ability to hurt you more than anyone else, and when you allow yourself to be vulnerable, and have true intimacy, it involves danger. But that danger is worth it!

And we want to challenge you to start thinking of a dangerous marriage in a new way. We want you to start recognizing the power and purpose you have together as a couple, and what God has for each one of you. So start training and utilize the armor that God has given you!

And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken. Ecclesiastes 4:12

If you want to stay relevant in your life, you need to constantly seek knowledge. Are you being a willing student in your life? Do you seek to know more about your spouse, your kids, and most of all...in your faith?

Staying relevant doesn't mean shifting your foundation, but WHEN YOU STAY RELEVANT YOU STAY RELATABLE. You allow God to reveal what needs to be revealed and you allow Him to use you in every area possible! We challenge you to seek Christ as to what area He is asking you to be relevant in, and to keep learning your spouse. That is a beautiful gift!

On today's episode we give some practical advice on what maintenance in your marriage looks like, not to be confused with maintain! Often we don't recognize that the daily intentional acts we do, or don't do, in marriage leads us somewhere. We challenge each person to ask themselves, "What is one thing I can do love my spouse better today?"

We also want you to encourage you to establish:
