God-First Relationships: Biblical Wisdom for Marriage and Beyond | Under God Podcast Episode 247

Are your relationships stuck on autopilot—going through the motions without real connection or growth? In this powerful episode from our marriage series, guest speaker Pastor Lee delivers 36 years of marriage wisdom on the one thing that transforms every relationship: putting God first.

The world offers endless relationship advice through movies, songs, and social media—but it consistently leaves out the most important ingredient. Pastor Lee challenges Christians to stop taking cues from culture and start following God's playbook for relationships, whether you're dating, married, or navigating difficult family dynamics.

What You'll Discover:

✅ Why the Bible from Genesis to Revelation is actually a playbook for relationships

✅ The commitment lessons Christians can learn from penguins, seahorses, and eagles

✅ Why Adam and Eve were at their "blessed place" when they walked with God—and what changed

✅ How offense and assumption destroy relationships and what to do instead

✅ The practical shift Pastor Lee made after 36 years that transformed his marriage

Pastor Lee shares vulnerable stories from his own marriage, including the moment he learned that what his wife needed wasn't roses—it was seeing him wash dishes. This episode will challenge you to stop assuming and start communicating, to break free from offense, and to invite God's presence into every relationship in your life.
