In this episode, we talk about marriage expectations vs reality and what happens when Christian couples discover marriage isn’t always how they imagined it. From intimacy and romance to reading the Bible together, worship styles, cooking, and spending time as a couple, we share our personal experience of learning to build a Christ-centred marriage in real life. We discuss how to overcome unrealistic expectations, grow spiritually with your spouse, and create healthy habits like praying together, serving in church, and connecting daily in practical ways. Whether you’re engaged, newly married, or want to strengthen your relationship, this conversation offers faith-based marriage advice, encouragement, and tips to build a strong God-focused marriage.
