Real Christianity

Many Christians have made January 1 about their new goals—their financial goals, their career goals, and their health goals—a practice you’ll never see in the life of Jesus or any of his apostles. While there’s nothing wrong with resolution making, it’s amazing how easily we forget Jesus‘s grand promise, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” It’s days like today which make it very evident whose kingdom we are truly seeking—His or ours. In this episode, Dale and Veronica discuss what it means to be Christian and what it means to have died and been born again? **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

The enemy's attack on marriage comes from every angle we can imagine—if you and your spouse are not firmly planted in God's word, His roles, and His wisdom for your marriage and family you're in a vulnerable state. In this episode, Dale and Veronica confront the cancer of pornography, issues in parenting, and the sin of friendships turning into flirtationships. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

Where should Christian couples draw the line on entertainment in their home? What do you do if your spouse is uncomfortable with a certain movie or show you enjoy?

In this episode, Dale and Veronica turn to Scripture to solve this mess and offer biblical principles to heal the pain of extended family conflict. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

Is Christmas a church adopted pagan holiday or authentic Christian tradition? How much should we allow the culture to influence our Christmas experience? In this episode, Dale and Veronica share how they keep Christmas Christian while still engaging the culture during this special time of year. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

Many Christian couples are homesick for true biblical community. A community that's more than a wave and hello each Sunday—they're looking for commitment and encouragement and even accountability. For Dale and Veronica, the only place they've been able to form these theologically rich and relationally deep bonds with other Christians is within the close-knit culture of a Bible-based house church. In this episode, Dale and Veronica continue their conversation about house church and answer common questions about their journey. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

The Bible commands our marriage to reflect the relationship between Christ and His church. However, if we don’t properly experience the church according to Scripture, it becomes difficult to model in our own marriage. In this episode, Veronica and I take a look at the Bible's instruction for the weekly church gathering, how it differs from what most Christians are currently experiencing, and how it's critically connected to the health of our marriage, our family, and our faith. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

How we order our days is how we order our lives. The Bible calls Christians to be diligent and proactive in making God, His wisdom, and His ways a priority in our daily lives. In this episode, Dale and Veronica share the daily routine that keeps their family aligned with God. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

Love has been twisted and vandalized into many definitions that it is not. Love is not something you fall into or fall out of. Love is not a feeling. Love is not an emotion. Love is a choice, a set of actions, and a way to live according to God’s word. In this episode Dale and Veronica look at the Bible’s definition of love. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

Almost every marriage faces it—sexual trials and trauma. From the cancer of pornography use and the dagger of unfaithfulness to wounds of rejection and missed expectations. Sex or the lack thereof is the epicenter of many divorces. In this episode, Dale & Veronica confront these common issues and offer biblical solutions that bring life, freedom, and trust back into the bedroom. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

Nobody plans to have an affair on their wedding day—yet nearly 50% of all marriages experience this reality at some point. The truth is we are not immune to divorce, infidelity, and adultery. In fact, as Christians, we are called to be on guard against these threats hurled against our marriage. In this episode, Dale and Veronica Partridge share the three rules they use to create an affair-proof marriage. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

The goal of a secular marriage is two things: Survival and pleasure. As long as you're happy and sustaining then everything is good. That's not the case for Christian marriage. God isn't concerned as much about your happiness as He is about your holiness. In fact, the more holy your marriage becomes, the happier it will be. In this episode, Dale and Veronica discuss what it looks like to have a holy marriage—how to look, act, and think differently than the culture.

We've watched couples destroy themselves over their inability to reconcile sin in their marriage. For many, it comes as a slow death fueled by the roots of resentment and bitterness. For others, it's a lifetime of animosity toward one another that prevents the enjoyment of marriage, family, and community. In this episode, Dale and Veronica dig out the Scripture's instruction for conflict resolution and call Christian couples to fervently seek unity and love once more.

Sex, Mothers-In-Laws, Divorce, and Children—four topics that topple marriages every day. In this episode, Dale and Veronica tackle these dicey issues with scripture, wisdom, and the raw vulnerability that's commonly absent in the walls of the church. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

It seems whenever the word "modesty" is brought to discussion scores of defensive Christians roar with phrases like "legalism" and "rape culture" and "female oppression." But is modesty a conversation of doctrinal enslavement or of biblical righteousness? In this episode, Dale and Veronica examine the Bible's call for female and male modesty. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

Some couples should win an Academy Award for their incredible ability to hide their fights from their church community. But the reality is this, Christian couples fight—and while the fighting is real, so is the sin. In the moment of strife, many spouses throw their biblical beliefs out the window and instead, react how someone would who has not made a commitment to Christ. In this episode, Veronica and I discuss our personal four-part, biblical process on how to keep the faith in the midst of conflict. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

Many married couples go years afraid to ask certain questions. Some are afraid of the answers they know they will receive and some are afraid of the response their spouse will offer to such a sensitive topic. In this episode, Veronica and I tackle questions around women's roles, sexual conduct, children's education, and church denominations. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Plant a House Church: https://RelearnChurch.org Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

The top three reasons for Christian divorce are sex, money, and children. Sadly, much of the church has adopted a secular perspective on money while neglecting to implement the Bible's instruction for wealth. In this episode, Dale and Veronica discuss debt, saving, and the theology of biblical money management. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

Many marriages crumble under the weight of earthly trials. Many wives are found emotionally and spiritually abandoned by husbands who are disengaged or unequipped to lead their wives through the difficult waters women are destined to face. In this episode, Dale and Veronica confront and conform to the Bible's perspective of trials and the husband's role in leading their bride through them. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible

You won't find a Christian in the church that disagrees—children are a blessing. However, Christian fertility rates are dropping across the board. More Christians are having less children. So what's going on? Do we not want more blessings? Or is something else going on in the church? In this episode, Dale and Veronica take a look at what the Bible says about children and how Christians can evaluate if they are conforming to God's perspective or the world's. **Follow us on Social Media: https://instagram.com/dalepartridge/ https://instagram.com/veronicaipartridge/ https://www.instagram.com/ultimatemarriages/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/relearnchurch/?hl=en Ultimate Marriage: https://UltimateMarriage.com Marriage Mentor Program: https://ultimatemarriage.com/notify Marriage Retreat: http://ultimatemarriage.com/retreat One-Year Bible Reading Plan: https://ultimatemarriage.com/bible
