Many Christians try to fix their marriage by "working harder" on their behavior, but as we discuss in this episode, that’s like stapling fruit to a dead tree. If you find yourself lacking patience, kindness, or self-control, the problem isn't your effort—it’s your root. We dive deep into the Greek definitions of the Fruit of the Spirit, the "tailpipe" diagnostic for your home, and the reality of what it means to truly be a regenerate believer. This breakdown offers the biblical roadmap to moving from fleshly "rotten fruit" to a life truly indwelled by the Spirit.

Is your marriage bearing genuine spiritual fruit, or are you simply stapling "good behavior" onto a dying tree? Today we dive deep into the "engine" of a Christian union.

Many Christian men believe they are honoring God by working themselves to the bone, but could their hard work actually be sinful? Today we examine the biblical theology of work, from the Garden of Eden to the command of the Sabbath, to see where modern husbands are missing the mark.
