Date Night is Not Optional

from Only For A Season · host Mel Cruzado

In this episode, Mel Cruzado shares a simple marriage habit that Ruth and he have practiced for nearly 47 years: making intentional time for each other through regular date nights. With warmth and practical encouragement, Mel speaks to young couples in the busy parenting years and reminds them that a strong home is built on a nurtured marriage, not just a full calendar. You will hear why this matters, how to start even if life feels stretched thin, and two Bible scriptures that support protecting the marriage covenant, followed by a prayer over young parents. #ofaseason
