As For Me And My House

Hey friends! We recently celebrated 6 years married, and while that might seem like a short amount of time to be wedded together, in this day and age we consider that a miracle by God’s grace. We’ve learned a few things along the way in our journey of marriage and have compiled a list of 6 things we’ve been really honing in on and (should) have as routine patterns in our lives at this time. Drop us a comment and add to our list what you’re learning in your marriage! And don’t forget to let us know your thoughts on the upcoming series we are planning to kick off next week! Be blessed.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey friends, this week's episode is all about some practical ways we can reconnect with our spouse to grow deeper in your intimacy and affection. The Apostle Paul encourages believers to "outdo one another in honor" (Romans 12), and when your focus is to care for the needs of your spouse and vice versa, you are guaranteed to be blessed and be a blessing. Let us know in the comments what you do to grow deeper in your love with your spouse!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dear friends,Today’s episode is by far the most difficult one we’ve ever done, but it was absolutely needed. Fair warning—this discussion may be triggering if you’ve gone through a miscarriage, but our hope is to offer encouragement to you and your family that God is near to you in your pain. Jesus tells us in Matthew 5:4, “God blesses those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” May you find peace and strength in Jesus Christ who heals all things and will one day wipe every tear from our eyes when we get to heaven.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey friends—many of you know by now that we are currently walking in the middle of a pretty deep valley. We were expecting our 4th child to be born in late October, but sadly we found out we miscarried and our baby is now with the Lord. While we took several weeks to grieve and mourn, God has wrapped His arms around us and brought us tremendous comfort through His Word, even in spite of the most difficult of seasons we’ve experienced. We will share more about our journey of healing in the next episode later this week, but wanted to share some Scriptures we’ve really clung to during this episode of Thoughts & Prayers. We pray this will serve to bless and comfort you when you experience pain and hurt.Thank you to ReliefBand for sponsoring today’s episode!Go to reliefband.com and use our promo code “myhouse” for 20% off plus free shipping!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Whether you're a new Christian or have been walking with the Lord for decades, we all have struggled with believing lies, or have even bought into them at one time or another. On today's show, we want to share some common lies we've believed and how we can recognize, reject, and remove those lies from our life by the power of the Holy Spirit and replace them with God's Truth.Thank you to Relief Band for sponsoring today's show!

Hello dear friends—thank you so much for joining us on this week’s show. As Christ-followers, we believe one of the most important disciplines we can practice is having a posture of repentance. Even after our conversion to Christ, we still do wrong and succumb to our flesh on the side of heaven. But by God‘s grace, He has already forgiven every sin of ours—past, present, and future. And while that is comforting news, we are to never take advantage of God’s grace as a license to stay stuck in our sinful ways. In this episode, we want to submit to you some steps we personally take in our walk with the Lord after we’ve been convicted by the Holy Spirit. Paul implores us to examine ourselves in the faith, and reminds us that God’s kindness is what leads us to repentance. As His children, we do not fear His discipline and correction, rather, we can boldly approach the Throne of Grace with confidence as we repetitively return to the feet of the cross.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey friends! We are excited to bring you this episode because it hits home for us and no doubt many of you who are married and/or in a serious dating relationship. You don’t have to be together long to experience tension and struggle within your interpersonal dynamics. The good thing is, it is healthy and even at times necessary to work through such issues because it’s part of maturing and growing closer together. In this episode, we go through a recent “fight” we had and share some practical steps you can implement to seek resolution and reconciliation. Ultimately, with Jesus continually at the center of your relationship, there is no conflict too big that a humble heart and attitude of repentance before the Lord cannot resolve. “Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.” - 1 Peter‬ ‭4‬:‭8‬A big thank you to our show sponsors!BetterHelp:Get 10% off your first month at https://www.betterhelp.com/myhouseKiwiCo:Get 50% off your first month plus free shipping on any crate line at https://www.kiwico.com/asformeEarth Breeze:Get 40% off at https://www.earthbreeze.com/myhouseSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey friends! As you know we have been exploring and researching various approaches to parenting that seem to best reflect the Scriptural instructions given to us by God. For the last couple of years, we’ve been implementing many of the tenants of what is called “gentle parenting.” The term and movement itself if left undefined can be misleading and even unbiblical. In today’s episode, we seek to take the good attributes of gentle parenting into account while “spitting out the bones” of where it goes wrong. Our endgame is to Biblically parent and instruct our children in the way of the Lord, so that when they’re old, they will not depart from it (Proverbs 22:6).A special thank you to today’s sponsors:BetterHelp: Get 10% off your first month at https://BetterHelp.com/myhouseEarth Breeze: Get 40% off at https://EarthBreeze.com/myhouseSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
