Hi there, welcome to fierce marriage. I'm Selena and I'm Ryan and we are excited to bring you a new

episode talking about loneliness within marriage and aka God's design for community within marriage.

So what does that mean? Yeah, you know, I think there's a lot of couples or a lot of spouses that

feel lonely. Mm-hmm. Despite living full-time with the whole family. Well, you're saying two

folks, so lonely maybe within their marriage and or lonely together. Like we're married and we

don't really feel like we're connected to community and there's no need to be had. Yeah, I know that

we've had those seasons. I know that I've had those seasons individually. We've left me alone.

We're both just lonely. Anyway, we will see you in just a second. 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,

finances, priorities, purpose, and everything in between. Laugh, ponder and join in on Candid Gospel

Center conversations. This is fierce marriage.

All right, so it's so good to be back. We we're coming off just kind of a really busy couple of weeks.

Yeah, it's been good though. You know what I think we say that every week though.

I know. God's good. He keeps us keeps our keeps the soil going. Yep. Keeps things growing and

needing pruning and yeah, I think namely we got to we got to be a part of what our friends so

our friends up to the north. The Baffle area. The Baffle area have they had a date night. There's

about a hundred people there. They do this yeah they do this about three times a year and it's really

cool event. I feel like all tradition to do this only because it's it's a date night for young

and married which is kind of it was funny because there's you know there's older couples with

younger kids so it's like young and married so young people and or young kids and married like

so it was a really cool dynamic we got to drive up there and meet with our friends Jeff and Ashley
