    The Rough Start "Our story" Part 3

    Send us Fan Mail  It's Not How You Start In Part 2 of our story, we share a powerful truth that every couple needs to hear: it's not how you start—it's how you finish. Like many couples, our journey didn't begin with a perfect fairytale. We faced challenges, disappointments, misunderstandings, and moments when it would have been easier to give up than to keep growing. Yet through God's grace, perseverance, and a commitment to one another, we discovered that difficult beginnings do not determine your destiny. This episode is for couples who may be struggling right now. Your current circumstances do not have to be the final chapter of your story. Healthy marriages are not built on perfection; they are built on faith, forgiveness, growth, and intentional love. Join Pastor Danny and Dr. Amelia Cole as they candidly share lessons from their own marriage journey, the obstacles they overcame, and the principles that helped transform their relationship from surviving to thriving. ✨ Key Takeaway: Your past does not define your future. With God at the center, every couple has the opportunity to rewrite their story and build a marriage that reflects love, passion, purpose, and oneness. #MarriageOneness365 #PursuitOfPassion #ItsNotHowYouStart #MarriageIsCole    Order Danny and Amelia's Book, The Passion Framework or Pursuit of Passion, and begin your journey of deeper love and lasting passion at https://www.dannyamelia.org/.

The conversation centers on their approach to marriage education and their books, Pursuit of Passion and Passion Framework. Key Themes and Insights The Books as Tools: The authors describe Pursuit of Passion as a tool for personal self-evaluation and a structured, practical guide for couples, likened to a "six-week therapy session". The Passion Framework is presented as the next step, providing testimonials and proof of how these principles work in real-world marriages.Mastering Communication: A core teaching is "building bridges" and mastering communication, particularly in the bedroom. They emphasize:Stating expectations and intentions upfront.Understanding that listening is a form of communication, and often, one partner just needs to be heard rather than having their problem "fixed".Recognizing that emotional intimacy and communication throughout the day serve as a form of "foreplay" for women.The Process of "Becoming One": The authors stress that marriage is not a final product but a continuous process of growing, learning, and changing together.Boundaries and Choosing Mentors: Couples are encouraged to set boundaries with others to protect their relationship. They advise against listening to negative influences and emphasize the importance of finding safe, godly mentors who will speak life into the marriage, rather than those who express bitterness.Encouragement for Those Struggling: Addressing couples who may feel hopeless or are considering leaving, the authors emphasize:The importance of getting oneself "whole" and confident in one's identity in Christ.Seeking support from couples who have survived similar challenges.Recognizing that God is a refuge and that it is possible to find hope and healing through hard work and faith.Intentionality: To combat the drift caused by the busyness of life, the couple advocates for being intentional about connecting, laughing together, and enjoying one another's company through small, spontaneous acts.   Order Danny and Amelia's Book, The Passion Framework or Pursuit of Passion, and begin your journey of deeper love and lasting passion at https://www.dannyamelia.org/.

    Conversation With Kieya & Kev 88.5 FM

    Send us Fan Mail Background and Origins: The speakers, Dr. Amelia Cole and Pastor Danny Cole, share their personal story, recounting how they met while working at the Internal Revenue Service in 1985. They emphasize the importance of intentional pursuit, noting that it took six months for them to begin dating, eventually marrying in 1986.Defining Healthy Pursuit: The speakers clarify that healthy pursuit involves respect, clear communication, and honoring boundaries rather than "stalking" or controlling behavior. They advise against being "easy" or "nasty" in relationships, suggesting instead that individuals should preserve their own value while remaining open to being pursued.The Transition to Roommates: The couple identifies common signs that a marriage is slipping into a "roommate phase," which includes poor communication and failing to create a safe space for vulnerability. They highlight communication, finances, and intimacy as the primary areas where couples often struggle.Overcoming Challenges: Pastor Danny and Dr. Amelia reflect on a difficult four-year period in their own marriage early on, which they attribute to negative external influences and a lack of understanding regarding their individual purposes. They emphasize the importance of finding a shared spiritual foundation and learning how to lead and follow effectively, rather than struggling for control.The Reality of Partnership: The couple debunks the "50/50" marriage myth, noting that healthy partnerships require one person to be the "stronger one" when the other is having a bad day. They conclude by discussing the power of words, acknowledging that women possess a spirit of influence that should be used to build up their partners rather than manipulate or nag.   Order Danny and Amelia's Book, The Passion Framework or Pursuit of Passion, and begin your journey of deeper love and lasting passion at https://www.dannyamelia.org/.
