You can love someone deeply, but marriage takes more than love. It takes commitment, self-control, respect for boundaries, and the willingness to wait for what truly matters. In this episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Dr. Alex Glava-Quarte, former Head of the Civil Service, for a deeply personal conversation about marriage, faith, discipline, relationships, and the values that build lasting commitment. Dr. Quarte shares the story of how Rosemary said NO SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE and how he almost walked away. He reveals why he initially considered ending the relationship, how her firm boundaries challenged him, and how an unexpected journey of faith eventually brought them together. He also explores: Why marriage requires more than physical intimacy. Why respecting your partner's boundaries matters. Why you must be willing to work and wait for what you desire. The lessons of discipline, parenting, and growing up in an African home. Why you should remain loyal and faithful even when others disappoint you. How faith and the desire to do what is right can shape your life. If you're dating, preparing for marriage, or trying to build a relationship that lasts, this conversation will challenge how you think about love, commitment, and the values you bring into marriage.
