Welcome!

In this video, we're answering one of the most important questions: How do you actually find a spouse? But before we answer that, we ask an even better question: What is a spouse?

Spoiler: it's not a checklist. It's not a lifestyle. And it's definitely not a refrigerator…but we'll explain that hilarious Blessed Fulton Sheen reference.

*Disclaimer: this video was recorded before Blessed Fulton Sheen received the title ‘Blessed.’

We break down what you should actually look for in a spouse, starting with the most important thing: Can you both help each other grow closer to God? From there, we share the three foundational commitments every Catholic marriage needs: building a Catholic home, being open to life, and understanding marriage as a lifelong covenant…not a contract.

We also dive into practical questions you should ask on a first date (we did!), why compatibility matters but isn't everything, and how to discern whether someone is genuinely the one God is calling you to marry. Plus, we share our own story of how we knew within weeks that we were meant for each other; and why you don't need years of dating to figure that out.

Whether you're single and searching, confused about what matters in a spouse, or just tired of the world's shallow approach to relationships; this episode will help you see marriage the way the Church does: as a sacred vocation rooted in God.

We're not marriage experts; we're simply a Catholic husband and wife committed to growing in this vocation together and inviting others to grow with us.

We hope our channel can create a space for honest discussions about Catholic marriage, dating, faith, family, and becoming the husband or wife God is calling us to be.

Welcome!

In this video, we're tackling one of the hardest truths about marriage: the illusion fades. You know that feeling when you first fall in love? That "happily ever after" fantasy? Yeah, it doesn't last…and that's actually a good thing.

We dive deep into why feelings alone can't sustain a marriage, why the vows say "for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health," and what it really means to build your marriage on God instead of emotion. We'll talk about the sacrament of matrimony, what vocation truly is, and how understanding these truths transformed our marriage from something we thought would make us happy into something that's making us holy.

We also share what we learned at Pre-Cana (premarital counseling) and how Blessed Fulton Sheen's wisdom about marriage helped us see that marriage isn't about two people trying to make each other happy; it's about two people helping each other get to heaven.

If you've ever wondered what separates a real Catholic marriage from the world's version of "love," or if you're struggling through the hard seasons when the butterflies are gone and real work begins…this episode is for you.

We're not marriage experts; we're simply a Catholic husband and wife committed to growing in this vocation together and inviting others to grow with us.

We hope our channel can create a space for honest discussions about Catholic marriage, dating, faith, family, and becoming the husband or wife God is calling us to be.

Welcome!

In this video, we’re diving deep into modern dating culture; the hookup scene, situationships, dating apps, and the lies we’ve been told about what love should look like. Spoiler alert: it’s broken, and we’re not afraid to say it.

But here’s the thing: we don’t just want to complain about what’s wrong. We want to show you what’s right. We’ll talk about why dating with purpose matters, how to root your search for love in God rather than fleeting feelings, and what it actually means to date as a Catholic.

Whether you’re single and navigating the dating world, engaged and preparing for marriage, or married and wanting to understand how you got here…this episode is for you. We share our own struggles with modern dating, the questions we asked each other from day one, and how shifting our focus to God completely changed everything.
