Why is it so easy to show love and patience to a friend—but so hard to respond gently to your spouse? Today, Brian and Elisha dive into the heart of our reactions and what they reveal about our character.

In marriage, the people closest to us often get the most unfiltered version of who we really are. This episode unpacks why that is and how we can grow in emotional maturity, self-awareness, and spiritual transformation—so our reactions start to reflect the character of Christ, not just our frustrations.

If you've ever felt confused or guilty about your emotional responses in your marriage, you're not alone. Let’s explore how our reactions can become opportunities for growth, healing, and deeper connection.

Can I trust this person again? It’s one of the hardest questions to answer after betrayal strikes a relationship. Today, Brian and Elisha unpack the difference between wise trust and blind trust, and how rebuilding trust requires more than time—it requires truth, safety, and discernment.

They discuss how grace plays a role in healing, but not the kind of sloppy grace that enables deception or dysfunction. Instead, they explore what it looks like to extend grace with boundaries, and how to discern whether someone is truly safe to trust again—or not.

If you’ve been hurt and you’re wrestling with whether to give someone another chance, this conversation is for you.
