We are NOT talking about resolutions or even specific goals today. Shocking, I know. Everyone seems to want to talk about those, but we are taking a different approach this year. We are looking back at 2025. We had a lot of big things go on with us this last year, so we review the year and talk about the growth, the heartache, and the blessings. We also look at how 2025 is preparing us to launch into 2026. Join us!

Merry Christmas to all of our listeners! We're so happy you chose to listen to us this week. We are staying in the season by talking about practical gift giving. Some see it as boring, impersonal, or even lazy, but the receiver is rarely disappointed. We need to re-train our minds about practical gifts! Join us as we discuss it!

Welcome back to Prime Marriage Podcast! If we were to ask you work bestie about your spouse, what would they say? What about your friend from college? Your parents? Not everyone would want to answer those questions. How you talk about your spouse to other people can be life giving or can be devastating. It can even be an indicator of the health of your marriage. Let's talk about it!

Happy Podcast Day! Today we are back in the "studio" for a new episode. We are talking non-verbal communication. Whether it be a sigh, an eyeroll, tone, body language, we hit it all. Learning your spouse's non-verbal cues can not only be a great way to connect, but it can help resolve conflict. Beware though: a well-placed eyeroll or sigh can be demoralizing as well. Let's talk about it!

On today's episode, we have a couple of special guests. We are talking with our oldest Tyler and his beautiful wife Courtney. While they have only been married for 3 years, they have been through a couple of decades worth of seasons in their marriage. Join us to hear their story and what gives them the hope to keep on going. (We are not recording in our "studio" ((aka our bedroom)) so we know there are some audio challenges in this week's episode, but we are sure you will be blessed to hear this!)

Welcome back to Prime Marriage Podcast! Today we're wrapping up our series on biblical marriage perspectives (for now at least). Today we hit I Corinthians 13. The Love chapter. If you thought the last two subjects were tough to live out, this one says, "hold my Coke Zero." Love is easy at times, and incredibly difficult at other times. We go through this chapter and talk about the challenges. Join us!

Welcome back! On today's episode we are discussing passivity. This one cuts a little close to the bone for one of us. Most of my (Chris) life, I have told myself I am just laid back. I'm chill. That's a nice way to remove any negativity from being passive or sometimes downright lazy. However, this isn't a "pick on Chris" episode as we're both guilty of being passive in a lot of area. We talk a little about us, but mostly we just want to highlight some areas that passivity can really hurt your marriage. Hopefully you can relate and maybe learn a thing or two! Join us!

Welcome back everyone! We are continuing the mini-series that deals with biblical views of marriage. Today we are discussing the Proverbs 31 wife. Many of you are inwardly groaning but take heart! When you dig into this chapter, it isn't nearly as unattainable as what you may think. I think you all will enjoy this one. Join us!
Here is the article we mention from the 1950s:

Have you ever received bad marriage advice? We have. Go searching the web for marriage advice and you will find some spectacularly bad nuggets of "wisdom". Well today, we discuss some of these. Some are ridiculous, but most have some elements of truth involved, but you need some discernment (and common sense) to apply them. Join us!

On today's podcast, we get a bit personal. Okay, REALLY personal. We talk about a time in our marriage where many people would have called it quits. This episode is quite vulnerable for both of us, but we hope that you can see that there is still hope even after some traumatic events. Your marriage CAN make it, and we're proof! Join us!

Today is the first episode in a mini-series that we'll be recording (not consecutively though). We are going to be looking at the biblical picture of marriage and what that looks like in this series and we are starting off with one of the most misunderstood words of all time: submission. You see? Some of you just shuddered. We shed some light on this poor maligned word. Just listen in and give it a chance.

Whenever someone mentions grief, we always tend to think of major loss. Death in the family or maybe a loss of a relationship are things that come to mind, but grief and mourning can occur because of seemingly insignificant events (at least to the outside observer). It can seem mundane but affect you more than you know. Loss of quality time with your spouse, missed opportunities with your kids, and moments not seized when they presented themselves. Join the discussion!
What is stewardship, and how does it relate to marriage? Well, that's what we discuss today. Being a good steward of your marriage is being a keen observer, a good manager, and a selfless companion. And it is on BOTH spouses to do it and do it well. Join us for the discussion!

Today, we are tackling some money saving tips for couples and families. Trust me when I say, we are not experts or even doing well in this. However, we don't have to have it all figured out to see what is wise and what is wasteful (even if we occasionally ignore it!). From budget tips to some great apps and tools that can make your money go farther, we cover a little bit of everything. Join us!

On today's podcast, we explain our name. No, not Chris and Brandi, but the name of the podcast itself. We were pretty intentional about the name we chose because we both love clever wordplay, but when we dove in, we discovered just how relevant that name really is. What is a Prime Marriage? How does the word Prime play into what you should be aiming for in your marriage. Listen in and find out!

Would you like a do-over? Well, you aren't going to get one. However, today we write a letter to our 18-year-old selves and give that younger version of ourselves some advice. No, not like invest in bitcoin, but getting in on the ground level of that would have been sweet! We encourage our younger selves to be bolder, to look at life decisions with more care, and to not take for granted the experiences that life is handing us. It's a bit of an emotional episode, but that's okay. It's real!

There are many people that think as long as there aren't false words coming out of their mouths, they are being honest. If you've lived enough life and especially if you've been married for very long, you know this isn't the case. Half-truths and omissions are not honesty and are dangerous and damaging to trust. Let's talk about it!

Anyone who anyone will tell you that self-reflection is good. We all need to take a hard look at ourselves and make changes accordingly. However, sometimes the truest reflection you can see is the one you see from your spouse. They can show you a part of yourself that you weren't even aware was there: for the positive or negative. Let's dive in and discuss it!
