If You Don’t Want Marital Duty Don’t Marry

Drop us a note about the podcast. Saul is certain he’s doing the right thing and then everything changes in a flash of light. We start with Acts 9 and the road to Damascus, where Jesus confronts Saul’s persecution and turns a ruthless mission into a story of repentance, obedience, and a brand-new calling. From Saul’s blindness to Ananias laying hands on him, we talk about what real conversion looks like when pride breaks and truth takes over. We also get painfully practical about prayer and marriage. I share why praying for yourself is not selfish, and we read 1 Corinthians 7 on marital duty, mutual authority, and self-control. It’s a direct look at Christian marriage values that refuses to sugarcoat what covenant requires, including the need for intimacy, sacrifice, and agreement when a couple sets aside time for prayer. Then the tone shifts to public safety and moral clarity, including a horrific 1993 Houston case used to argue about justice, capital punishment, and the future we leave our families. We also talk about AI bias and why you can’t outsource discernment to a tool, then close with a Medal of Honor spotlight and Rev. Francis J. Grimké’s warning that nations often collapse from inward corruption when they abandon righteousness.
