Hi there, welcome to the fierce marriage podcast. I'm Selena and I'm Ryan and we're glad to be here and I'm

Stuffy is what I am. These little stuffy. I've got some allergies or something. Yeah, but when you have kids

I'm sorry, but when you have kids your life is a petri dish and you are just like swimming in bacteria

I feel like all the time just a matter. It's like your immune system can only fight them back for so long. So

Well today we're going to be talking about six ways to a fair proof your marriage. We're going to discuss just a few ways that we've discovered

to kind of begin to a fair proof. Not saying that everybody is going to have to deal with this, but these boundaries that we've learned to kind of

set in place have really helped our covenant like thrive and helped us kind of go deeper, but we wanted to discuss specifically why it's important for couples to actively build trust

and honesty and how to begin that process and how the gospel beautifully just fuels and leads us to be honest and transparent with each other. So that's all we're going to dive in.

Welcome to the fierce marriage podcast where we believe that marriage takes a fierce tenacity that never gives up and refuses to give in.

Here we'll share openly and honestly about all things marriage, sex, communication, priorities, purpose, and everything in between.

Laugh, ponder, and join in on Candid Gospel Center conversations. This is fierce marriage.

Well, that's true. I heard that it can be anything from really cold and spring down in the South. Like, we know who knows the weather.

Who knows? It's supposed to know more. I feel like we know less. Oh gosh. So today we talk, we're going to talk about six ways to a fair proof your marriage.

And we'll get into that shortly.

First, I want to hear your.

Oh, you're excited to hear mine. I want to hear yours. Yeah. Okay, we're going to do the heart check today instead of highs and lows.

Which, yeah, which if you don't know what heart check is, it's three questions. What book is in your hand? What voice is in your ear?

And what is stirring in your heart? What has got doing in your heart?

Yep. So I finished the book, Christie, the old school one. It was so good at the end. So good.

And then I've picked back up teaching from rest by Sarah McKenzie, I believe.
