Greetings, fierce listeners, Ryan here. Hey, we have a special episode for you this week.

It's actually a recording of a live online event we did in partnership with our friends over at Impactist Ministries, which actually used to be Promise Keepers Canada.

They were gracious enough to invite us to speak specifically on the topic of transparency during a lockdown.

Now, if you're familiar with the Promise Keepers ministry, you'll know that it's primarily a ministry geared toward men.

But Selena was there with me on the talk, and we were able to, I think, examine these issues

from both our perspectives. So namely, we talked about the five biggest obstacles to being truly

known by our wives or by our spouses during lockdown.

You see, what we're finding is that while couples are spending more time than ever together

during lockdown and during isolation, things like that, they're actually drifting apart

emotionally and even spiritually and even physically in terms of their intimacy.

So while we talk through each one of these five common obstacles, we also talked

through a truth to kind of dispel the lie that is behind the obstacle, and we offered

a step out into the light.

So it was a great conversation.

I feel like we covered some new ground.

I was also really encouraged by the question and answer time that we had toward the end.

Paul, the facilitator, asked us some really elucidating questions, and we had a great time

answering those.

So thank you for joining us.

We hope this special episode blesses you, and we will see you, as usual, on the other side.
