Avoiding Burnout
Have you reached your limit or are you on a verge of a nervous breakdown? You could be experiencing burnout. God desires all of us to have rest and recovery. The Bible says in Genesis 2:2-3 NIV, “By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.” The word rest means Shabbat which means to stop. God stopped(rested) and set his day apart for us. As a result, we all need to stop and get the proper recovery and rest for our emotional, mental, and physical health.

Avoid the Cracks in the Foundation of Your Marriage Part II
The Bible says in Matt 7:24-25, Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”
It is very important that we build our marriages on the foundations of God’s word. Many foundations experience wear and tear which need to be sealed. In our case, we must allow God and His word to keep our foundations sealed by not giving a place to the devil. Let’s continue to fight for our marriage and avoid cracks in our foundation!

Raising Godly Children in a Godless Culture Part II
Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.”
Proverbs 22:6 NKJV
Children are a blessing from God and raising them can be a rewarding experience. It can be a challenge as well because the world’s system is trying to speak louder than the word of God we put in them. This culture is becoming more ungodly by the day but we have to continue to be a light for our children. By doing this, we are exposing the devil’s agenda to expose and exploit our children.

Keep your marriage out of cruise control
Staying out of Cruise control and Coasting in your Marriage.
Coasting can be a dangerous spot for marriages to stay in. Coasting implies that a person has become so comfortable in their relationship that they are no longer putting in the effort required to sustain momentum. After all, relationships are living, breathing things that are meant to evolve and strengthen over time — and that simply isn’t possible if one partner is on autopilot.
Join us today as we discuss how to stay out of the Coasting Zone.

Open Marriage
What Does God Say about Open Marriage?
God has designed marriage. He knows the ends and outs of it. Thanks for joining us for a discussion on the effects of have an open marriage.
Please subscribe, like and listen to this podcast.
✨ Just a correction, our anointed producer pointed out an error we made. We said it took “950” years for satan to deceive Adam and Eve, according to some theologians, the point we were making was it took the enemy years to enter the garden of Eden and it was not instantaneously. We are human and make mistakes and we are still growing in knowledge of God’s word. Love y’all

Baggage Claim Part 2: Relationship Baggage
Marriage is a blessing, if you are willing to put the work into it. You have two different worlds coming together to form one entity in God. It is better for worse…right? There is “relationship”baggage or trauma that we bring into our marriages that could weigh it down. Men and women are just two broken people coming together sometimes. If we do not address our baggage with our spouses, our marriages can head to oblivion. But with God all things are possible. He created marriage, so He can resurrect it and make it alive again.

R.E.S.T.
Realizing Everything Starts with Trusting God. In order for you to reset, refresh and restore it starts with allowing God to be first in our lives. According to Genesis 1, God rested on the 7th day and made it holy which is called Sabbath. Sabbath is a Hebrew Word: Shabbat which means to “rest” This is after He made man, earth and everything on it. We will discuss the importance of taking a REST and how it provides the opportunity to reset. What perimeters are you putting in place to rest? Let’s spend more time in the presence of our Father, more time with family, and more time escaping the hustle and bustle of this world.

Fruit Producing Marriage Part 9: Self Control
Temperance comes from the Greek word egkrateia, meaning strength, not physical strength, but inward strength that helps us to make the best choices. This strength can only come from our daily dedication to obtaining and maintaining the other fruits of the Spirit detailed in Galatians 5. It’s only from God we can have self control in the midst of a trial, difficulty or under immense pressure. When things get out of control at times in our lives, God is able to give us His peace therefore allowing us to exhibit self control and be rooted in His peace. Join us as we discuss the final installment of our series “Fruit Producing Marriage” Part 9: Self Control scripture reference: Galatians 5:22, Proverbs 15:1
Jun 22, 202229:48
Fruit Producing Marriage Part 8: Meekness
Biblical meekness is not weakness but exercising self control and patience from God. Meekness is a quiet strength. The scripture says in Numbers 12 that Moses was very meek in fact he was the meekest man on the earth. At that time, he was being attacked by his own people for marrying outside of his race and culture! Being meek is having a humble and gentle heart that God can use mightily for His purpose.
