When I hit "record" on the very first Delight Your Marriage podcast 10 years ago, my mic stand was a Quaker Oats container. 

I had a dream, a story, and a hope that I thought could help others. 

I just had a few loaves and fishes to offer—with a world in need.

Now—500 episodes later—we've seen Him do it: hundreds marriages restored in our programs directly, many thousands of families transformed through our podcast, lives healed all over the world. 

And yet, this milestone isn't just about what God has done at Delight Your Marriage—it's about what He wants to do next, through all of us.

Here are three lessons from this episode I believe will bless you right now:

1) Do not be overcome by evil
The world's problems can feel overwhelming, but your greatest impact is in your sphere of influence—your heart, your habits, your marriage. That's where revival begins. And it does spread!

2) Do courage enough and it becomes confidence.
At first, obedience to God feels risky and scary. But when you keep stepping forward with courage, it grows into confidence. And then it's simply confidence in who you are and how God made you to be and impact others. 

3) Live the Love Chapter at home–first.
1 Corinthians 13 isn't just for weddings—it's your daily assignment. Love is patient, kind, forgiving. Revival doesn't start on stages—it starts in your living room.

Hear how Delight Your Marriabe began and where we're heading in the next 10 years! We're going be in-person trainings (16 starting this fall!), best selling books, self-directed courses, certified coaches, live events, weekend retreats, and global impact—transforming marriages, churches, and even whole communities.

We're just getting started—and you're part of it.

With gratitude,
Belah
