Axel and Carly Van Cleve on Marriage Abroad, Uganda and Mental Health

Live from UGANDA — Axel and Carly have only been married one year (just celebrated one year in June!) but have already navigated a cvd 19 era wedding, moved across the country after being married for one month to train for their internship at the same Christian NGO, started new jobs, dealt with some tougher moments as Carly’s mental health showed its darker side, moved back to California for a few weeks then packed up to move to Uganda to start new jobs in a new country.

They share how they’ve shown up and found each other through it all, relied daily on Christ, what it means to sacrifice, love better and grieve the things they miss deeply while being away from home.

Caleb and Stefanie Rouse: Relationship Educators and Thriving With Jesus

Stefanie and Caleb Rouse use their online and social media platforms to point others to Christ. They use what they've learned (Stefanie has a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy; Caleb has a Masters in Education) along with their love for God and His Word to help encourage others who are feeling hopeless, down in relationships, and are desiring to live life the way God intended them to.

They recently launched a course for single women and have one for married couples coming soon. Included in the course are things Stefanie learned in her program. The things she learned changed her life and they wanted to make it more accessible so others can unlock the best version of themselves in what God has called them to be and to help others thrive in the long-term.

Jacob and Tori Petersen - God Making Families Whole

Jacob and Tori Petersen have been married a little over 2 years, have a 2 year old son and a daughter on the way. They have a heart for family and seeing the restoration of families. Jacob is in a season of being the husband and father God has called him to be and enjoys welcoming all into their family home and making them feel like family. Tori grew up in the foster care system and God has since redeemed and restored pieces of her story and is using her as an advocate for foster youth, vulnerable youth and suffering families and is a voice for the unborn/pro-life. Taken from her site, Tori writes, “I share my life vulnerably with hopes to let my Abba Father be known & loved through stories, to offer hope to the hurting, & to serve people from all kinds of backgrounds.

Linda Obremski and Mariah Metoyer-Marino on Grieving with Hope

Two remarkable women with two remarkable stories — join me for July’s episode as Linda Obremski and Mariah Metoyer-Marino share the journey they’ve been on since “losing” their husbands. They share how “losing their husbands” isn’t really what it is at all because they know where their husbands are… they aren’t lost but are home, in Heaven with their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, more alive than ever before. They share the hope and comfort they find in knowing they will see them again and the beauty of discovering their purpose in this new season they find themselves in.

They share how it does not feel right living from the identity of “widow”. Their identity is firm in Christ, as Daughters of the King, Daughters of the Most High God. They are living to bring Him glory through every trial and every suffering this life on earth may bring. Mariah shares that if suffering in this life brings Him more glory, then so be it!
All this and more in episode 19!
