TMV: Episode 48 – Marriage Conversations: Valentines Special – Part 1  We love introducing the people we love to the people that we love and for this Valentine's Special, we invite our husbands, Christian, Jimmy, and Eric, as well as our special friends Anna and Bernie Cueto onto the show for a jam-packed installment of Marriage Conversations. We chat about our various Valentine’s Day rituals (or lack thereof) and join forces to answer a few of your questions! In this episode, we cover everything from how we see God working in our lives to how we encourage one another on a daily basis and how we manage our boundaries as married couples in a cyber-savvy world. We discuss the value of respecting the God-given roles in a family and how to gently guide each other along our spiritual paths by example, not superiority or force, before moving on to the topic of date nights! Tune in to find out how our concepts of date night have evolved since having kids and for those eager to find a spouse, discover how being single is a beautiful opportunity to deepen your relationship with God and serve others. Thank you for joining us for Part One; we’ll be back soon for Part Two of the Valentine's Special!
