This week on Calibrate Conversations we explore popular cultural takes on marriage. Listen in as we confront the good, the bad, and the downright ugly opinions circulating online and in the public sphere about this sacred union. I kick off the conversation with a reflection on the power of words, particularly how we talk about our spouses. Discover why it's crucial to frame your partner in a positive light among friends and family, and why belittling your other half can do more harm than good. Then, Brady dissects a viral social media stance on marital independence, questioning whether acts of domestic kindness are indeed burdensome or simply love in action. This segment challenges us to cultivate a culture of mutual service and support in our relationships.
The episode then takes a turn into more controversial territory, examining the views of Pastor Joel Webbon on marital control and the alarming comments from a worship pastor at JD Greer's church concerning premarital sex. Hear why Brady passionately disagree with these perspectives, advocating for equality and intellectual freedom within marriage, and stressing the alignment of church leadership with spiritual maturity. As we wrap up, Brady opens up about his personal journey, sharing how honesty about past struggles with homosexuality has enriched his marriage, underscoring the sanctifying journey that marriage is meant to be. Embrace the notion that the covenant of marriage can shape us into better, more Christ-like individuals, as we navigate through challenges with grace, forgiveness, and unwavering commitment.
Join us weekly as we strive help people embrace God's standard for sexuality!
