No Regretz Marriage

On today's No Regretz Marriage podcast, we take a look at The Song of Songs celebration of physical intimacy. God created sex to be a beautiful part of the marriage relationship. Sex in marriage is not something to hide from, but a gift to be celebrated. We live in a culture that wants the beauty of sex and its positive impact on relationships without the boundaries God set up. By ignoring God's wisdom about sexual intimacy, people get the curse rather than the blessing.

Join us as we take a look at The Song of Songs, sometimes known as the Song of Solomon. You can view the book as an allegory, an idealized "what if?", or as we will look at it, a celebration of married love, romance, and physical intimacy.

There are those moments when your life turns upside down. Something shocks you and you don't know what to do. You realize your life will never be the same again. On today's No Regretz Marriage podcast, we share one of those moments from our life.

Last week we looked at what does the Bible says about a husband's role in marriage. this week we look at the role of the wife. The wife's role is so much greater and more important than most people believe. We hope you will join us for today's podcast.

What is the husband's role in marriage? I am not sure many of people in our culture and even churches know. The biblical mandate for husbands has been twisted and corrupted by the culture and even by some within the church. In today's podcast, we will look at what the Bible says about the role and responsibilities of a husband.

In this week's No Regretz Marriage podcast, we take a look at some of the trends from 2025 that can impact your marriage today. Based on research by the Barna Group, what are some of the cultural trends in our country that may impact marriages directly or indirectly. How do we respond to these trends in our culture?

We are past Quitter's Day. Quitter's Day is the second Friday of January. It is named that, because that is supposedly how long people keep their goals for the new year. Since we are past the date, we thought it would be a great time to think about your marriage in three ways and maybe set some goals towards building a stronger, healthier marriage in 2026. Celebrate what is good in your marriage. Recognize what you do well and come up with a way to celebrate you! Evaluate what parts of your relationship can be better. Be honest; none of us have a perfect marriage. And finally, come up with a plan to elevate those parts of your marriage that can be better. Talk it over and be intentional in building a better marriage in 2026.

Join us for part 2 of our conversation with Adam & Gina Blakely. Marriage has many challenges. How you face them can strengthen or destroy your marriage. Adma & Gina allowed the challenges they faced to bind them together.

Every couple is going to face challenges in their marriage. Will you face those challenges together and let them bind you together in a stronger marriage? Or will you let the challenges of life tear you apart? The challenges will come, but you can let them make your marriage stronger. Join us this week for part 1 of a special conversation with Adam & Gina Blakely. We hope you are both challenged and encouraged by their story!

Ask God to shape your vision and goals for the year ahead.

We are on part 4 of the How to Forge an Eternal Legacy Family series. In this podcast, we will look at what does it mean to focused on eternal treasures rather than temporal treasures. What does that look like for your family. Are you devoting your time and money for things that will last?

In this week's podcast, we continue with the topic of building an eternal legacy family. We stay with Ruth and Boaz as we consider what a model of living focused on God and eternity looks like. From trusting in God's providence to making bold decisions, an eternal legacy model is grounded in your character.

Last week we started a series on building an eternal legacy for your family. What is an eternal family legacy? An eternal legacy is a model for faithful living for others to follow that is evidenced by the pursuit of eternal treasure rather than temporal gains. An Eternal Legacy is revealed in a marriage that portrays the gospel and focuses on building godly generations with the goal of setting a path that impacts the world for God’s glory from generation to generation. This week we take a look at the relationship between Ruth & Boaz as they give us a great model to incorporate into your own model for your family. Wha

"An inheritance is the stuff you leave behind. A legacy is something you forge." As I grow older, I think more and more about what my legacy might be. My parents and in-laws passed a legacy of faith and love to me and Carla. What will our children remember about us? How about our grandchildren or great-grandchildren? Will they continue to pursue Christ and his kingdom? How can we set a path for them to follow. We hope you will join us for this series as we talk about what an eternal legacy is and how you can forge it for your family.

In Philippians 4:13, Paul tells us, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." This a verse that is often misinterpreted. It does not mean that you do anything you want to and God will enable you to do it. I may want to be able to run a 9 second 100 meters, but I don't have the physical attributes to do so. Just because I follow Christ, it doesn't mean I will be a world-class sprinter because I want to be one. The verse means that anything God calls me to do and walk in, his strength will enable me to do it. God called Carla and I to walk in some hard places. His strength and grace were always sufficient. In today's podcast, we share some of the stories from our journey.

We come to our final episode of the Renewing the Culture series. Today, we consider the last of four questions we encourage you and your spouse to ponder and discuss. 1. What is good that I can celebrate and protect? 2. What is missing that I can create and contribute to? 3. What is evil that I need to resist and oppose? 4. What is broken that I can help renew and restore? As you consider this last question, where do you sense God calling you to act and get involved? How can God use you to build the Kingdom and renew the culture?

As we continue the series on renewing the culture, we come to the third question. What is evil that I need to resist and oppose? A tough question and maybe harder to do. We are called to bring down the strongholds of Satan. Is God calling you to be one of those who do this?
