Marriage isn’t about your happiness—it’s about your holiness.

In this soul-deep episode, Chelsey walks through Ephesians 5 and unpacks the profound mystery of marriage: a reflection of Christ and the Church. This is more than submission, more than sex, and more than “doing your part.” It’s a Spirit-filled, sanctifying journey toward oneness, healing, and kingdom purpose.

You’ll hear:

  • Why biblical submission creates space for your husband to rise
  • How intimacy is a spiritual purification process—not just a physical act
  • The enemy’s distortion of sex vs. God’s design for soul-level oneness
  • What it looks like to stop living lukewarm and start building God’s kingdom through your marriage
  • How to shift from low-level problem-solving to high-level living

If you’ve been stuck focusing on what’s not working, this episode will show you how to shift your perspective and posture into alignment with God’s original design.
