Marriage Expectations vs. Reality | Debra Fileta on Crazy Little Thing Called Marriage

🎙️ Listen to the Crazy Little Thing Called Marriage podcast here! https://bit.ly/3NYECtv In this episode, we dive deep into the journey of building a Christ-centered, fulfilling marriage with counselor, author, and speaker Debra Fileta. Together, we uncover essential truths about balancing selflessness with healthy self-care, identifying and healing emotional wounds, and breaking free from the myths that often set unrealistic expectations in marriage. We also explore: • Why understanding your needs is key to pouring into your spouse. • The deeper battles behind everyday irritations. • How God uses marriage to sanctify and heal us. • The importance of trust, vulnerability, and regular "check-ins" for cultivating intimacy. • Debunking the "soulmate myth" and focusing on intentional commitment. Debra shares personal stories, practical tips, and biblical insights to help you embrace the beautiful, sometimes messy, process of becoming "one flesh." Whether you’re single, engaged, or married, this conversation is packed with encouragement and wisdom to strengthen your relationship. 🌐 Web: https://bit.ly/3C60vEC 🚩 Help: https://bit.ly/3Yz0eRQ 🎙️ Podcast: https://bit.ly/3Aptu5A ▶️ Follow us on Social!
