Recognizing Signs of an Affair
Today’s podcast is about how to recognize the signs of an affair. Marital affairs are an incredibly sad topic, but statistics show that they’re necessary to address. According to the National Library of Medicine, Infidelity is the second most common reason for divorce.My wife and I have both experienced divorces from previous marriages. Infidelity was a factor in both of those marriages. We have first-hand knowledge of how infidelity can destroy a marriage and family. We’re presenting this information in an effort to save at risk marriages, before they’re blown apart by an affair. This podcast is for both spouses. The one who is having the affair and the one who is not.Most affairs are split into 2 stages. They begin as an emotional affair and if left unchecked, they evolve into a full-on physical affair and often end in divorce. But regardless of which stage the affair is at (emotional, or emotional and physical), the information in this podcast will help you to recognize the dangerous signs of infidelity. And how to address this threat to your marriage. Join us today as we explore this important topic.

Who Has Authority Over Your Children – You or the State?
There’s a deeply disturbing trend and battle that’s developing in the US and around the world. Our government, educational system and health and medical authorities are attacking parental authority and rights given to us by God to raise and protect our children. They aren’t just attacking us and our families. They’re attacking God and His design for mankind and the family. And this information doesn’t just apply to parents but grandparents and extended family as well. In fact, it’s relevant to everyone that holds a Christian world view and believes that God’s word supersedes any earthly governing entity. Psalm 127: 3 “Children are a gift from the LORD; they are a reward from him.”Proverbs 22:6 “Train up a child in the way he should go: And when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Nowhere in scripture does God’s word tell us to delegate our parental authority and responsibility to the government or anyone else. That admonition is a parent’s right and responsibility, given to them directly by God. Join us today as we explore this important topic.

Is This Crazy and Dangerous World Part of God’s Plan or Has He Lost Control?
If you’ve followed this podcast for any length of time, you know that we aren’t afraid to tackle serious questions and topics about faith. In today’s podcast we ask ourselves a very honest question. Is this crazy and dangerous world part of God’s plan or has He lost control? If you’ve never asked yourself that question, you need to. Even if it seems disrespectful to God or that you have a lack of faith if you’re unsure of the answer. The answer you arrive at will show you what you REALLY believe. Not what you say you believe. Or what you know you should believe. But what you really believe about God and His plan for you and all of mankind. Headlines and world events scream that we live in a world that’s out of control. But God’s word reveals something very different. Join us today as we reflect on this important question.

The Importance of Choosing a Godly Spouse
Today’s podcast, The Importance of Choosing a Godly Spouse, is one of the most important podcasts we’ve ever published. If you or someone you care about is an unmarried Christian, and is hoping to meet, or actively searching for a soulmate that they can journey through life with, you can’t afford to miss what we’re about to share. Please send this episode to anyone you think would benefit from it. This information could be lifechanging. My name is Rick Nischalke. My wife Barbara and I have both experienced divorces. In 2008 we co-founded a ministry called Keeping Families Connected. Since then, we’ve helped thousands of families around the world. We help them to save their marriages. When divorce is unavoidable, we help them to navigate through a divorce with the least amount of cost, conflict and damage to their families as possible. We also help families blown apart by parental alienation. This clinical term simply means, when one parent turns their children against the other parent. Extreme alienation can result in losing contact with your children forever. We’ve learned what works and what doesn’t. We know the positive traits to look for in a potential spouse and which ones to avoid like the plague. Most people have no idea how lonely and destructive a loveless or abusive marriage can be. Or how bad things can get if you choose the wrong spouse. We’ve had people contact us on the verge of taking their own life because of the pain of a horrible marriage. And today we’ll share what we’ve learned with you, to protect you from experiencing the painful consequences of a bad decision. Marriage to the right person can be an incredible blessing. Far beyond anything you can imagine. We just celebrated our 27th anniversary, and we have an awesome marriage! If you’re hoping to enter into a marriage relationship as fulfilling and blessed as God intended, our time together will be one of the best investments you’ll ever make!You can find out more about our ministry at https://keepingfamiliesconnected.com/.If you’d like to support our efforts, you can donate to our ministry using the Donation tab on our website. 😊
