n this episode of Covenant Over Culture, we did something a little uncomfortable… we handed the microphones to our kids and asked them to tell the truth about our marriage.

What they shared was honest, funny, convicting, and incredibly revealing.

They talked about:

• Listening issues

• Miscommunication

• Staying calm

• Blaming each other

• Road direction arguments

• Being cranky and tired

The very things no one posts about.
The very things no one calls “marriage goals.”

But here’s the truth: this is where real marriage happens.

This episode dives into what we call “intense fellowship” — the moments of friction that God uses to grow patience, humility, forgiveness, and deeper covenant.

Because marriage isn’t built in the highlights.
It’s built in the hard conversations, the misunderstandings, and choosing each other anyway.

Come listen as our kids describe what marriage really looks like in our home — and how God uses even the tense moments for good.

In this episode of the Blissful Chaos Podcast, Crystal explores the beauty and

responsibility of covenant marriage. Using a personal story, she unpacks how dependence

in marriage is not weakness but God’s design. This episode walks through what biblical covenant

truly means, why we are often least gentle with the one we love most, and how guarding our words

and understanding our spouse’s deepest needs protects the heart of the marriage.

In Part 2 of Deeply Chosen: An Adoption Story, we move from the journey… to the call.

In this powerful continuation, April shares the moment God began stirring her heart toward adoption and what it looked like to say “yes” before she knew the outcome. Through honest conversation and reflection, we talk about fear, faith, obedience, and the quiet ways God prepares our hearts for something bigger than ourselves.

This episode weaves together April’s story with the parable of the Prodigal Son — not just as a story of a wandering child, but as a picture of a Father who runs toward His children, chooses them, restores them, and calls them His own.

As I ask April questions about what she felt, what she wrestled with, and how she knew this was God’s leading, we discover a deeper truth:

Adoption is not just a family story.
It is God’s story.

We talk about identity, belonging, healing, and the beautiful reminder that just as Leo was chosen, so are we. Scripture reminds us in Isaiah 54:10 that even when everything feels uncertain, God’s unfailing love is never shaken.

This episode will encourage you to listen for God’s call in your own life, trust His leading, and remember that you are deeply chosen by a Father who runs toward you.

We say a lot of things that sound biblical…
but aren’t actually Scripture.

Phrases like “God helps those who help themselves,”
“This too shall pass,” and “God just wants you to be happy” have become part of Christian language — yet God never said them.

In this final episode of Bible Myths Unplugged, we step back and ask an important question:

What has God actually said?

Because comfort is not the same as truth.
Tradition is not the same as Scripture.
And quotes will never steady you like God’s Word will.

God told us to study.
God told us to love Him with our minds.
God told us to be ready to give an answer.

So today, we come back to the Word — not what sounds good, but what God actually said.

Open your Bible.
Read it.
Know it.
And let God speak for Himself.

In this powerful first installment of Deeply Chosen, we share Leo’s story—one marked by loss, hope, and the life-changing beauty of being chosen. This episode explores the emotions, challenges, and quiet miracles that come with the adoption journey, reminding us that family is not always formed by blood, but by love, commitment, and God’s perfect design.Through Leo’s journey, we’re reminded that every child is seen, known, and deeply chosen—by their family and by God. Whether adoption is part of your story or not, this episode will encourage your heart, deepen your compassion, and remind you that purpose can rise from even the hardest beginnings.

Anger is a human emotion—but what we do with it makes all the difference. In this episode, we talk about why feeling angry doesn’t make us sinful, how unresolved anger can turn into bitterness, and why God tells us to leave vengeance in His hands. We’ll look at what Scripture says about anger, how even Jesus expressed righteous anger, and why forgiveness brings freedom without excusing the offense.This conversation is for anyone who’s been hurt, wronged, or tempted to hold onto anger—and is ready to find healing, wisdom, and peace instead.

When the need felt overwhelming, God made a way. This episode shares a powerful reminder that where God leads, provision follows.
