You can love your husband, have a “good” marriage, and still feel like something’s missing. Why? Because connection isn’t just spiritual or emotional—it’s physical, too. And when that piece goes quiet for too long, everything else starts to fray.
✨ EPISODE SUMMARY:
In this honest and eye-opening episode, Michelle breaks down the real reason so many Christian marriages feel emotionally off—even when things look “fine” on the outside. She explains how intimacy isn’t one thing—it’s a braid of three: emotional, spiritual, and physical. And when any one of those gets neglected, the whole thing starts to unravel.
This one is full of gentle truth, real-life examples, and practical steps to reconnect, even if the spark has dimmed. You were made for unity, not just survival. And physical intimacy plays a powerful role in bringing hearts back together.
