Our Teens Tell the Truth About Being Raised by Us | Christian Parenting & Marriage Talk

In this special episode, we’re flipping the script—our teenagers are taking the mic!

We sat down with our 14-year-old daughter and 16-year-old son for a real, unfiltered conversation about what it’s like growing up in our home as kids of a Christian couple. From faith and family dynamics to what they’ve observed in our marriage, they share their honest thoughts, funny stories, and even a few “you do this and it drives me crazy” moments .

In this episode, we cover:

• How our kids experience being raised in a Christian home

• What they’ve learned from watching our marriage

• What parenting moments stood out to them (the good and the convicting)

• Their thoughts on prayer, discipline, and family values

• Encouragement for other parents raising teens today

This episode is full of laughter, love, and truth—and we hope it encourages every parent out there trying to raise godly children in a real world.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and not recognized who you’ve become in your marriage?

In this honest and heartfelt episode, we explore the subtle—and sometimes silent—ways spouses can lose themselves in a relationship. Inspired by a deeply moving story (see post), we unpack how one partner’s quiet disapproval or insecurity can slowly erase the light, fire, and uniqueness of the other.

We talk real about what happens when one spouse feels threatened by the other’s gifts and purpose—and how that insecurity can show up in passive control, shame, or silence. You’ll hear us wrestle with tough questions like:

• Is your spouse flourishing or fading?

• Are you building a home or a cage?

• How do you manage a strong and energetic spouse/partner in marriage without feeling threatened?

This episode is not just for couples in crisis—it’s for any married couple who wants to stay intentional, avoid emotional erosion, and build a marriage where both people can thrive.

Let’s talk about the cost of peace, the power of presence, and how not to lose “you” in the name of love.

In this episode, we kick off the ABCs of Marriage series by diving into the first five letters—A to E—sharing the powerful principles that have helped us stay connected and grow stronger in our marriage.
