Ever imagined what it's like to break free from the daily grind and jet off to Hawaii with your partner? Well, buckle up because that's exactly what we're doing! After 15 years of marriage, my wife Monica and I, Matthew, are set to embark on an adventure that includes surfing, volcano exploration and much more! But this episode isn’t just about our exotic plans, we also take a moment to celebrate the success of our podcast. Thanks to you, dear listeners, we've seen a significant increase in downloads and our reach has expanded globally!

Marriage, much like planning a vacation, is built on expectations. In this episode, we get real about understanding the other person’s needs and goals in a relationship. We shed light on the concept of 'testing out' relationships and how authenticity and understanding can lead to a balanced partnership. Remember, it’s not just about co-existing, but thriving together, which is only possible when we value each other for personal growth and fulfillment. 

Our episode’s final section circles back to the expectations men and women have in a marriage. We candidly discuss the unspoken desires and needs, highlighting how communication is key. We believe, as married couples, the importance of praying together holds a significant place in our relationships. Drawing from our own experiences, we discuss the role of faith and how a relationship can flourish when we let Jesus in. Be a part of our journey, as we continue to explore the depths of marriage, faith, and personal growth using our podcast platform, hoping to inspire and touch lives with our stories and insights!
