How to love like JESUS (not the way you want) Pt 1

What does it really mean to love like Jesus in marriage?The Bible gives us a blueprint — and when we follow it, our spouses should be able to testify that they feel loved like Christ commands. Not just in words, but in action.📖 1 Corinthians 13:4–7 reminds us love is patient, kind, not self-seeking, not easily angered, and keeps no record of wrongs. 📖 Galatians 5:22–23 shows us the fruit of the Spirit — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. If the Spirit is in us, this fruit should be visible in how we love. 📖 Ephesians 5:22–25 calls husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church, and wives to submit as unto the Lord. 📖 John 13:34–35 tells us to love one another as Christ has loved us. 📖 Colossians 3:12–14 says to clothe ourselves in compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience — and over all these, put on love. 📖 Romans 12:10 calls us to honor one another above ourselves.This week’s episode of Healed & Holy is a call to check our receipts: does our love for our spouse look like the love Jesus modeled?🎧 Tune in to Episode 1 of this series: How to Actually Love Like Jesus in Marriage.✨ Your dream marriage is possible — when Christ is at the center.#HealedAndHolyPodcast #DreamMarriage #LoveLikeJesus #ChristianMarriage #MarriageGodsWay #BiblicalMarriage

Forgiveness That Frees: Learning from Stephen’s Last Breath

Forgiveness isn’t easy… but it’s powerful.In Acts 7:56–60, as Stephen was being stoned to death, he prayed, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” Even in his final moments, he chose forgiveness. And then Scripture says he fell asleep — he had peace while dying, because he trusted God completely.Imagine how much more peace we could have while living if we gave our anger, offense, and frustration to God.Marriage is one of the greatest classrooms for forgiveness. You’ll be tested, stretched, and challenged — but every time you choose forgiveness, you choose freedom, peace, and unity in your covenant.🎧 Tune in to this week’s episode of Healed & Holy as we talk about the radical power of forgiveness and what it means to practice it in marriage.✨ Tag your spouse or a friend who needs this reminder today.#DreamMarriage #HealedAndHolyPodcast #MarriageGodsWay #Forgiveness #BiblicalMarriage
