  • Great Content!

    Great content I just wish yall would not interrupt each other. It takes the focus off the content as we are trying to listen to two people talking at once. Phil. 2:3-4.

  • My favorite podcast

    Brad and Vicki are real. They are honest-they talk over each other :) and they above all show us how to glorify God in our marriages. I’m thankful for this show-I have listened, learned and shared with others. What a blessing from the Lord to have them share their hearts, their struggles and their successes-from Gods Word-all while giving glory to God. Give this show a listen and learn about how to turn your marriage from misery to joy.
