“I didn't realize I was trying to become a wife; then God said, 'Wait a minute, you're My daughter first!'” Discover the significance of one marriage, two covenants, and what it means to be “all in!”

------------------

In E14 of Love Letters with Jason and Ros, we’re talking about “Covenant,” and we’re keeping it real! With fewer than 40% of couples receiving premarital counseling, many enter marriage unaware of their first covenant—let alone the second!

We’ve officially kicked off Season 2 of Love Letters with our new series, “Building Healthy Marriages,” starting with the key element by which every strong marriage must start and stand: Covenant!

Discover why covenant is the foundation for everything else in your marriage, and why understanding it can change the way you love, communicate, and build together.

This one came straight from you. 💌

A clip from our Body Changes episode blew up, and the comments section had questions we couldn't answer in a reply. So we sat down and dug into them, unscripted.

In this Candid Conversations episode, we respond to your comments and
questions on:

• What to do if it's been years since you and your spouse have been intimate
• How perimenopause, menopause, and "manopause" affect intimacy for both spouses
• Who you should (and should not) talk to when you need outside support
• The difference between dating and courting for the unmarried
• Why sexual struggles are sometimes the fruit of a deeper root issue, not the root itself

If something we said got you thinking, or you've got a question of your own, send it our way. This is where we come back and actually talk about it.

"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another." - John 13:34
