When committed love, emotional intimacy, and passion collide, the result is a work of art called marriage.
"Love is more than a feeling and deeper than a crafty slogan or a line of a song."
Today we're talking about love. The word love is described in so many different ways. Some make sense. Some are just silly. Some talk about love. Some try to define love. Some of these you may have heard of well, and other others may be new to you. Love is blind. Love is in the air. All you need is love. Love is like war. Easy to begin and hard to end. Not sure about that one. Love means differences can be worked out. Love is reaching your dreams together. Our love is like dividing by zero. It can't be defined. That kind of feels more like a bad pickup line. Yeah, it does. While some of those could be true, it's really difficult to define love. What makes up love?
In this episode, you will learn the following:
1. How can love be defined? 2. What are the components of love? 3. What does love look like in a healthy marriage?

In this episode of the Art of Spousing podcast, hosts James Duvall and Lisa Duvall dive into the importance of grace and humility in marriage. They've learned a thing or two about this topic through their own experiences and want to share their insights with you. They discuss the power of viewing your spouse through a lens of value, celebrating their strengths instead of focusing on weaknesses. They also introduce the concept of pride and how it can hinder intimacy and cause conflict in a relationship. But don't worry, they've got the antidote: humility. They define humility as having an accurate estimate of your worth and thinking of yourself less, not thinking less of yourself. They provide practical applications of humility in marriage, like putting your spouse first and being quick to listen and slow to speak. By incorporating these principles, you can cultivate a healthier and more fulfilling relationship. So, if you're looking to improve communication and strengthen your marriage, this episode is definitely worth a listen!

Chris and Jamie Bailey use their journey of overcoming dysfunction to offer real hope and practical tools to other couples through their podcast, courses, and social media, showing that you're never "too far gone" for God to redeem your situation.
"It's not the problems that take you out in your marriage. It's what you do with them. It's how you choose to handle them. And dealing with chronic pain, I can allow that to depress me, defeat me, and just give me this negative mindset, which is not easy to give into, but that's not what I choose to do. The Lord says I can have joy despite my circumstances, and that's what I'm going to fight for."
Chris and Jamie Bailey are Christian counselors and marriage coaches passionate about helping couples live their best lives together. They are the founders of Expedition Marriage, where they encourage and equip marriages to reflect the love, grace, forgiveness, and vitality they were made to have.
Chris and Jamie Bailey's marriage began in dysfunction, but through Jesus and personal growth, they have been able to transform their relationship and help others. Through their ministry, they have been giving practical tools and messages of hope to couples all over, helping them to recognize that their marriage is a journey and that God is still good even when hard times come. God has redeemed their situation and given them a passion for helping others, and they are determined to spread the message of hope to all.
In this episode, you will learn the following:
1. How did Chris and Jamie’s marriage start in dysfunction and evolve into a story of redemption?
2. What practical tools do Chris and Jamie offer to couples on their journey of marriage?
3. How can men overcome fear and insecurity to participate in their families and marriages?

We have learned that expressing extraordinary love to one another is not only important for a thriving marriage, but is also a way to demonstrate God's love to the world. Through the Bible passage of 1 Corinthians 13, we found three practices to level up our love: patience and kindness, forgiveness, and building endurance. By doing these things, we can enjoy our marriage, rather than just enduring it.
"Love takes no pleasure in other people's sin, but delights in the truth. It's always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes. Love does not come to an end."
In this episode, you will learn the following:
1. That Valentine's Day is actually Valentine's Week.
2. What the Bible says about how we should love each other.
3. How we take our love to the next level and move from mundane to masterpiece.
And as a bonus...The Valentines gift that James gave to Lisa that earned James a pass on Valentines for the rest of their marriage...

In this episode James and Lisa have a conversation with Shaunti Feldhahn, co-author of the book "Secrets of Sex and Marriage." The episode tackles one of the most taboo topics in most relationships - Sex in marriage. Shaunti and her co-author, renowned sex therapist Michael Sytsma, spent three years and $120,000 on a research project involving interviewing over 5,300 people, leading to major surprises and aha moments. They identified the little things that make a big difference in making marriage sex work. The episode reveals how communication is crucial and how making people understand the differences in desire and addressing underlying issues can bring freedom and growth in a relationship. With the book designed to be read together, Shaunti believes that "Secrets of Sex and Marriage" can help couples understand each other better and feel validated.
"Communication is the elephant in the room - the topic we avoid because of its awkwardness. Despite having close friends, we rarely address it with them. It’s the only issue we never speak about, leading to the creation of myths and misunderstandings which guide our actions. If we don’t learn to communicate with our partners, these myths will keep us from true understanding."
Topics discussed:
How intimacy in marriage is the least talked-about topic
Research on the little things that make a big difference in making marriage intimacy work
Communication gaps and misunderstandings and how they impact intimacy
Understanding the differences in desire
Establishing signals or cues for willingness to engage in sexual activity
The church as a safe place for difficult conversations, and the creation of a curriculum on intimacy in marriage
