In this episode, we dive into God’s design for marriage and headship in the home. The Bible lays out a beautiful hierarchy: the husband’s submission to God and the wife’s submission to her husband. We explore what the Bible really says about husband and wife roles, why submission in marriage has been so misunderstood, and how embracing biblical headship can strengthen your home. Many people see submission as a “dirty word,” but we believe it’s simply a misrepresented truth. When understood correctly, God’s order for the home brings peace, unity, and purpose into a Christian marriage. 👉 Whether you’re seeking clarity on biblical marriage roles, want encouragement for your family, or are curious about God’s hierarchy in the home, this episode will challenge, encourage, and inspire you to see marriage God’s way. ___________________________________________ Follow on Instagram: @Marriedwiththemugicas ✅ Don’t forget to like and share this episode with another couple who needs encouragement today! 🔔 Subscribe for more marriage-focused conversations every week.

Marriage isn’t just about communication, parenting, or learning how to “fight fair.” At the core, it’s also about personal growth. In this episode, we explore the idea that a healthy marriage requires two healthy, growing individuals. When each partner is committed to personal development—learning, improving, and mastering themselves—they bring the best version of who they are into the relationship. Together, that creates a marriage that doesn’t just survive, but truly thrives. We share our own experiences, insights, and why we believe growth is one of the most overlooked keys to a successful and lasting marriage. ___________________________________________ Follow on Instagram: @Marriedwiththemugicas ✅ Don’t forget to like and share this episode with another couple who needs encouragement today! 🔔 Subscribe for more marriage-focused conversations every week.

From day one, we knew the traditional school system wasn’t for our kids. It wasn’t about pulling them out — they never even started. We wanted their education to be shaped by our values, our life experiences, and the lessons we believe truly matter in the real world. In this episode, we share why we made the decision to homeschool from the very beginning, the philosophy that drives how we teach, and why we believe the standard curriculum leaves out some of the most important skills kids need to succeed. We’ll talk about the subjects and life lessons we focus on, how we structure learning at home, and the freedom and flexibility that comes with teaching based on what we know works. Whether you’re curious about homeschooling, questioning the school system, or just want to hear a different perspective on education, this is an honest conversation about raising and teaching kids outside of the box — and why we wouldn’t have it any other way.
