In today's episode, Blake sits down with Joby Martin, lead pastor of Church of 11:22, for a candid, practical, and surprisingly fun conversation about biblical marriage.

This is a must-listen—especially with your husband.

Together, they talk honestly about leadership, submission, responsibility, and why keeping score in marriage quietly kills intimacy. Pastor Joby brings clarity (and humor) to what Scripture actually calls men to be—and how that leadership is meant to free wives, not burden them. From encouragement and repentance to negotiation, gratitude, and yes… make out sessions—this episode covers what healthy, Christ-centered marriage looks like in real life.

They also unpack:

• Why men need other godly men to grow

• How wives can encourage change without nagging

• The danger of swinging from passivity to toxic "alpha" masculinity

• Why gratitude, affirmation, and humility go further than criticism

• How communication and negotiation build trust and intimacy over time

This conversation is grounded in Scripture, full of wisdom, and deeply hopeful. If you want a stronger marriage, deeper respect, and more joy at home, start here.
