  Don’t Let Marriage Cost You Your Best Friend

  Aug 18, 202629 min

  You can love your spouse and still slowly lose the friendship that brought you together. In this episode of the Committed Hearts Podcast, William and Donna Porter talk about why friendship is one of the most important parts of a healthy marriage—and how easy it is for responsibilities, children, work, ministry, phones, and everyday life to push that friendship to the side. They discuss how to keep dating each other, make time for fun, protect your spouse’s place in your life, reconnect when you feel more like roommates, and continue doing the things that made you enjoy each other in the first place. Marriage is better when you don’t just love your spouse—you actually still like being around them. If you’ve been feeling distant, disconnected, or like you miss the person you used to laugh and have fun with, this episode is for you. Keep your hearts committed. ❤️ Welcome to Committed Hearts , a weekly podcast for engaged and married couples who want to build a strong, lasting, and God-centered relationship, without pressure, perfection, or churchy overload.

  Why Are We Tripping? The Marriage Tension Nobody Talks About

  Aug 11, 202629 min

  Ever feel like something is just off between you and your spouse—even when neither of you can clearly explain why? In this episode of the Committed Hearts Podcast , William and Donna Porter have an honest conversation about those moments when one or both spouses are “tripping”: bringing home frustration, responding with the wrong tone, creating unnecessary tension, or allowing a small issue to grow into a much bigger problem. They discuss how to recognize tension early, avoid feeding an argument, give your spouse space without withdrawing, de-escalate conflict, and protect the peace and unity of your marriage. Sometimes the wisest response isn’t another argument—it’s knowing when to be quiet, pray, give it time, and come back to the conversation when both hearts are ready. If things have felt tense, distant, or just plain “off” in your relationship lately, this episode may be exactly what you need.

  Do You Feel Emotionally Safe With Your Spouse?

  Aug 4, 202630 min

  Can your spouse trust you with their heart? Emotional connection is about more than talking every day. It is built through trust, vulnerability, empathy, confidentiality, and knowing that your spouse is a safe place to share what you are truly thinking and feeling. In this episode of the Committed Hearts Podcast , William and Donna Porter discuss why men and women may express emotions differently, how trust can be damaged when private matters are shared, and why emotional distance can eventually affect communication and physical intimacy. They also share practical ways to become emotionally connected again, rebuild trust after it has been broken, better understand your spouse’s emotional needs, and create a relationship where both people feel secure, heard, and supported. Whether you are dating, engaged, newly married, or trying to reconnect after years together, you can begin building a stronger emotional bond today.
