    MARRIAGE ASSUMPTIONS: We Assumed That We'd Always Be Close | Love By Faith with Kyle & Selina Almodovar #114

    Send us Fan Mail We assumed that we'd always be close... We challenge the assumption that marriage stays close on autopilot and name the small choices that quietly create distance. We share how work seasons, parenting pressure, and unspoken resentment show up in our relationship, then lay out practical ways to rebuild friendship, intimacy, and spiritual connection.  • prioritising work, kids, ministry, or routines over the marriage friendship  • how career building can feel loving but land as absence  • resentment triggers when one partner carries the load alone  • hobbies, sports, the gym, friends, and church activity becoming escapes  • the honeymoon phase fading and life stress getting in your head  • why “busy dates” don’t fix disconnection without talking  • asking where the disconnect is: spiritual, physical, friendship  • choosing transparency, vulnerability, grace, and humility  • using remembrance to rekindle what made you close  • finding your shared spark and rebuilding together  Don’t just listen and disappear.

    MARRIAGE ASSUMPTIONS: I Thought We Would Agree on Finances... Until We Got Married | Love By Faith with Kyle & Selina Almodovar #113

    Send us Fan Mail "I thought we would agree on finances... until we got married." We think the biggest money fights in marriage often start as quiet assumptions that don’t show themselves until real-life pressure hits. We share our story of job loss, saver-spender differences, missed payments, and the habits that finally help us get on the same page with finances and faith. • thinking financial agreement comes automatically after marriage • paying off personal debt before marriage, then facing unexpected income changes • finding out we are a saver and a spender • trying to “study our way” into a plan and learning it still takes practice • dividing roles for day-to-day bill paying and tracking spending • realising being out of debt does not mean money stays easy • working through differences in financial values like debt, giving and tithing • challenging the “my money is my money” mindset and aiming for balance as one • addressing the risk of one spouse controlling finances and rebuilding transparency Hit that like button.

    MARRIAGE ASSUMPTIONS: Why Doesn't My Spouse Want Sex When I Do? | Love By Faith with Kyle & Selina Almodovar #112

    Send us Fan Mail “Why doesn’t my spouse want sex as much as I do?” That question can spark fights, silent resentment, or a quiet sense of rejection, even in a strong marriage. We go straight at it with honesty and a lot of empathy, because a desire gap is usually not about one person being “broken” it’s about assumptions, pressure, and two people trying to connect with very different backgrounds, needs, and nervous systems. We get honest about the desire gap in marriage and why it can make both spouses feel frustrated, ashamed, or misunderstood. We share what helped us rebuild intimacy with intention, better communication, and faith at the center.  • naming the assumption behind mismatched sex drives  • talking through “excuses” like wiring, upbringing, media and porn culture  • how trauma and triggers can shape high desire or low desire  • the purity mindset “light switch” after marriage and the friend zone effect  • performance pressure, duty sex and why it creates bitterness  • quality versus quantity and how life seasons change both  • removing shame by creating a safe space for honest talk  • eliminating selfishness and treating intimacy as a shared responsibility  • our 30-day intimacy challenge for learning each other  • bringing sex, healing and fears to prayer as a couple  Don't forget to share, and leave a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review if this episode hit home for you!

    MARRIAGE ASSUMPTIONS: We Thought Marriage Would Fix Everything... We Were Wrong! | Love By Faith with Kyle & Selina Almodovar #111

    Send us Fan Mail We kick off season four by discussing marriage assumptions and sharing how we thought marriage would fix everything... we were wrong!  Welcome to Season 4! In this episode, we're telling the truth we learned the hard way: marriage doesn’t fix your problems; it exposes them. We share our early assumptions, the miscommunications that blindsided us, and the shift that helped us build a stronger marriage by faith and with intention.  • expecting marriage to solve finances, loneliness, and conflict fast  • realizing premarital counseling can’t fully prepare you for high emotions  • learning from early miscommunication and the snorkeling honeymoon story  • seeing how personality differences create friction at home  • noticing how year five to seven brings new expectations and new pressure  • accepting that life changes people through kids, loss, and transitions  • using shared standards and regular check-ins to reduce resentment  • choosing intentionality as the way to defeat assumptions  Support the show 🌱 One-Time Offering CashApp: $LoveByFaithPodcast  Venmo: @LoveByFaithMinistries 🌱 Become a Monthly Supporter THANK YOU for following, sharing, and leaving us a great review! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our Website: https://lovebyfaithministries.com Instagram: @lovebyfaithministries | @selinaalmodovar | @kyle.almodovar YouTube: https://youtube.com/@lovebyfaithministries FOR PARTNERSHIPS, SPONSORSHIPS & COLLABS... info@LoveByFaithMinistries.com *Disclaimer: We are ambassadors or affiliates for many of the brands we reference on the channel, including Amazon Associates, Buzzsprout, Epidemic Sounds.  As an Associate to these brands, we earn from qualifying purchases.
