We’re Back!

Life can be unpredictable, can’t it? We owe our listeners a big apology for our recent hiatus, but also a huge thank you for the encouragement you sent our way. Your messages, support, and check-ins truly kept us going, and we’re beyond grateful!

The past year has been packed with changes and challenges, reminding us just how crucial it is to have a strong foundation in marriage. In our comeback episode, we’re excited to share how life’s storms have strengthened our connection and what we’ve learned about keeping our relationship anchored through it all.

Life Happened, But We’re Back

So, where have we been? Simply put—life happened! Duane transitioned into a new job in the neurovascular medical field, a challenging leap from his expertise in cardiovascular devices. And with four of our six kids now in college, including law school, running two businesses, and caring for extended family, the demands of life felt non-stop. Through it all, we’ve had to lean into the principles we teach on this podcast: staying connected to God and to each other, no matter how chaotic life becomes.

Lessons on Building a Resilient Marriage

Challenges can either tear you down or bring you closer together, and we’ve been reminded of how essential it is to stay grounded in faith and love. From the joys of helping our children transition into adulthood to the sadness of mourning the loss of a parent (or in our case, two), these shared experiences have been opportunities to deepen our commitment to one another. Our motto: “Stay ready, so you don’t have to get ready.” By continuously building our relationship with Christ, we create resilience that carries us through.

What’s Next? Exciting Plans and Juicy Episodes!

We’re thrilled to bring fresh energy to A Purpose-Driven Marriage, with some exciting changes on the horizon. We’re launching a video version of the podcast on YouTube, inviting you into our conversation space! And get ready for Duane’s long-anticipated episode on “What men really want in relationships”—it’s coming, and he’s ready to spill the secrets.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us. We’re honored to have you alongside us. Tune into our latest episode for an honest and fun look into our hiatus and what you can expect next.

See you there,

Duane and Nadine Stewart
