EP 127 | Help! My Husband Isn't Housebroken!
Hey friends! Spencer here.
Ladies... do ever catch yourself thinking, "Help... my husband is not housebroken?"
After 31+ years together, here's the shift that changed everything for Lisa Breedlove and me: It's not my job (or hers) to "train" the other person. We're called to be true partners and helpmates.
Start with real respect and admiration (John Eldredge nailed it in Wild at Heart), mix in open communication, loving service, and actually sharing the load... and frustration turns into teamwork.
This fits right into our C.O.R.D. values:
Courage to pick respect instead of criticism
Ownership of my own attitude and actions
Respect that wins hearts quietly (straight out of 1 Peter 3)
Determination to keep showing up every day
New episode is live with the full story + Scripture encouragement.
How has choosing respect shifted things in your marriage?

EP 126 | How to Deal with Harbored Anger in the Heart
Hey friends, we just dropped Episode 126—the very first of 2026—and Lisa and I are so excited to share it with you. We dove into something that hits close to home for so many marriages: how harbored anger can quietly clog up the beautiful flow of love and intimacy we’re meant to enjoy. We picture marriage (and our hearts) as safe harbors—places of peace and refuge—but when we store up resentment, it’s like debris blocking the water, choking off warmth and connection.
I shared a funny-but-real story from this week: while I was out of town, our HVAC filter got completely clogged and the system couldn’t push out the heat we needed. That’s exactly what unaddressed anger does in a relationship. We tied it to Psalm 103 and God’s incredible mercy that heals and restores.
The heart of the episode? Forgiveness unclogs everything. It frees us to harbor love instead of bitterness and lets trust and closeness flow again. Lisa broke it down so practically: forgive first (take the step), forgive fast (don’t let it sit), forgive fully (let it go completely), and forgive freely (extend grace with no strings).
We also gave quick updates on our 40 Day Prayer Challenge, our words for the year—FOCUS (Family, Others, Community, Understanding, Self) and OUTDO from 2 Corinthians 8:7—and yeah, we’re still adjusting from sandy St. Maarten back to snowy reality!
If this resonates, grab the episode, share it with someone who needs it, and come connect with us on Facebook (Cord Of Three Coaching), Instagram (@cordofthreecoaching), or cordofthreecoaching.com. As always, remember: two are better than one, and a cord of three strands is not easily broken.
Grateful for you all—here’s to healthier hearts and stronger marriages in 2026.
