  • EP. 161 | A Mother’s Prayer Can Change Everything: Why Praying for Your Children Matters
    Nov 18 2025

    A mother’s prayer can truly change everything. Whether your child is in the womb, in a season of rebellion, or walking faithfully with the Lord — your prayers matter. In today’s episode, we explore the heart behind Follow Me as I Follow Christ, a 31-day devotional for mothers who want to pray and fast over their children with intentionality, Scripture, and surrender.

    Inside this conversation, we share:
    – Why every mother should be praying for her child at every stage
    – How your walk with Christ becomes a living example for your sons and daughters
    – How biblical “word pictures” teach more than lectures
    – The spiritual impact of modeling repentance and humility
    – Why praying AND fasting breaks strongholds
    – The heart behind the devotional’s cover photo and story
    – Encouragement for the mom who feels discouraged, inadequate, or tired
    – Why you are the right mother for your child

    Your child’s discipleship begins with you — your habits, your prayer life, your humility, and your daily walk with Christ. And the good news? God honors a praying mother.

  • EP. 160 | Who Does What in Marriage? How Couples Can Divide Chores Without Conflict
    Nov 11 2025

    Stop Fighting About Chores: Building Teamwork and Unity in Marriage

    Who’s cooking, cleaning, mowing the lawn, folding laundry—or changing the cat litter?
    In this lighthearted and honest episode of Marriage Mania, Tania and Michael talk about one of the most relatable struggles in marriage: how to divide chores without dividing your hearts.

    They share personal stories (and a few laughs) about how they learned to balance expectations, communicate better, and work together as a team in their home—without letting resentment take over.

    In this episode you’ll learn:

    • How to talk about household responsibilities before they become conflict
    • Why resentment grows when roles aren’t clearly discussed
    • How to divide chores by gifts and strengths, not stereotypes
    • The importance of communicating needs rather than assuming them
    • How teaching children chores builds responsibility and family unity
    • Why teamwork in marriage models the gospel for your kids

    Scriptures Mentioned:

    📖 Philippians 2:3–4 – In humility, value others above yourselves
    📖 Proverbs 19:11 – A person’s wisdom yields patience
    📖 Colossians 3:23 – Work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men
    📖 Ecclesiastes 4:9–10 – Two are better than one, for they have a good return for their labor

    Takeaways:

    1. Chores aren’t just tasks—they’re opportunities to serve your spouse.
    2. Communicate early before small frustrations grow into resentment.
    3. Teamwork at home reflects Christlike humility and unity.
    4. Model what biblical partnership looks like for your children.
    5. A peaceful home begins when both serve with joy and gratitude.

    Key Timestamps:

    00:00 Who does what? The debate every couple has
    01:21 Setting expectations early in marriage
    02:06 The cat litter story and why teamwork matters
    05:13 How unspoken resentment grows in marriage

  • EP 159 | How to Save Money in Marriage: 15% Savings, Tithing First, and a 6-Month Emergency Fund
    Nov 4 2025

    Money doesn’t have to divide your home. In this Finance Series episode of Marriage Mania, we share a biblical and practical plan to save money together—so you can reduce stress, end money fights, and steward resources for God’s purposes.

    In this episode you’ll learn:

    • How to build unity with joint accounts, monthly budget meetings, and shared goals
    • Why we tithe first and then automate 15% to savings (off the top)
    • How to create a 6-month emergency fund in a high-yield savings account
    • A simple “bill audit sprint” to cut phone, internet, memberships—and redirect that exact amount to savings
    • How to teach kids money God’s way (spend / save / tithe jars, paid vs. family chores)
    • Living below your means, planning for repairs, education, and retirement without new debt

    Scripture referenced:
    Proverbs 6:6–8; Genesis 41; Proverbs 19:11; Proverbs 15:1

    Quick Start Checklist:

    1. Tithe first
    2. Automate 15% to savings (until EF = 6 months bare-bones expenses)
    3. Park EF in a high-yield savings account (liquid, no penalties)
    4. Do a 30-minute bill audit (cancel/renegotiate → redirect to savings)
    5. Schedule a monthly budget meeting (same page = less stress)
    6. Teach the kids with spend/save/tithe jars

    Chapters:
    00:00 Why saving matters for marriage
    02:28 Oneness with money: “my money is your money”
    06:00 Emergency fund goal (6–12 months)
    08:53 Save 15% off the top
    17:00 Find $1,000 fast: cancel/renegotiate bills
    25:35 Where to park your emergency fund
    26:32 Calculate EF on bare-bones budget
    28:10 After EF: retirement and future goals

    If you’ve asked, “How do we stop money fights and start saving—God’s way?” this episode gives you a step-by-step path.
