Thank you so much for tuning into this episode of How Married Are You?! See you next week!
Yvette your speaking voice is so comforting. Let me know if you ever decide to do a meditation album or bedtime story album. You would have our whole house on chill mode!
So true!!!!Yvette has a GREAT voice.
I totally agree with you.
Yes!!! Her voice is sooo relaxing
Totally!!!!
Why is Yvette so dang cute like her laugh is adorable lol
You are preaching Brother Glen - "You have never seen yourself, marriage helps you to see yourself." Marriage is a mirror and you pray for a partner that is gentle enough to bear with you, accept and love you even after they see how imperfect you are.
💯
Yvette, you may not be teaching a classroom of young students right now, but know this: You are still a teacher. I believe God has enlarged your territory. You teach a world of people through your experiences. We appreciate your wisdom and surrender to the new assignment God called you into. You are necessary. ❤
“But when I look at him…I see a lot of help he needs”😂😂😂
The chemistry and great sense of humor y'all have even when bickering is amazing to see💓💓💓
OMGoodness Glen's embarrassing story😂 and the fact he'd rather have the toilet episode happen 20x over lol HILARIOUS!!!
Y'all are out here KILLING it - 🗣️ do you hear me!? Thank you for continuing to be real and giving us great content. I like knowing there are other black couples out there just living life and loving each other. Thank you!
I like that Yvette admitted that she needed someone that was outside of her bubble to help her.
Now when giving dating advice, advise folks similarly. Sometimes we want people who are just like us and check off all these boxes but, often it takes someone different and outside of our comfort zones to help us grow.
“Which year is rubber band!!” 💍 You gotta love Glen!! 👏🏼😂
That’s it!!! To become more of who you are and less of the adaptive versions of yourself. My god, the sometimes annoying but astounding blessing it is to be loved so well that you are truly seen, treasured and challenged.. then you see yourself more clearly and grow like crazy. I’ve never heard it talked about before and I think it’s important you mentioned it!
" don't walk to people's cars it's dangerous ... but he was selling flowers " 💀 I CANNOT!!!! 😂😂😂😂😅
This was such a beautifully timed episode for me to hear. As "iron sharpens iron", I feel like spouses as well as our children help God to forge us into the perfect vessel that He has designed us to be. It is like we are on the Potter's wheel being constantly molded and sheared into shape.
14:29 I was so engaged in the hair adjustments 😂😂😂😂😂
I do think it’s important to say that even if one is not married, if they are surrounded by a good community, it can have the same changing and evolving effects as marriage. 😊
Marriage is not the goal and not the only place someone can grow. You did say that but I feel like it needs to be said more clearly so that singles don’t feel like they can’t change and become a better person if they are not married.
Others in their life can play that role and especially the Lord.
Thank you for highlighting this. In being pro marriage, folks can run the risk of suggesting that the only opportunity for sanctification is marriage.
that gotta be an insecurity problem if they got that from what he said and aren't paying attention
Yvette was cracking me up this whole podcast 😂🤣🤣🤣
I love the laughs and authentic interaction!😁😁 I listened to the whole live, but it turned into passive listening because the baby was making loud noises in the background, I was preparing his breakfast, and then my mom wanted to talk to me and ask me questions at the same time. So just a whole lot of pausing and playing, yay mom life.🙂😬🙂 Rewatched it again tonight after work, while everyone in the house is sleeping. Glad I could better hear ya’ll without the busy bustle of the day and with calm silence of night.🥰🥰
I was having a rough day…BUT that awkward story was everything 🤣 every minute of the story!! thank you for sharing with us!
Yvette was giving "Uriah" vibes today! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The intro stories are the best 11 1/2 minutes i’ve ever listened 😂😭
Any time that song pops in my head I always sing it….Gravity is working against me. I guess it was working against you in the moment Yvette?
OMG😂🤣😂🤣😂Yawl have me over here crying laughing about the Lwhite female with the dark shades.
Yvette laughing so hard is so cute, lol. You guys are awesome.
Have more than one ring. It's nice to have a change, onyx, jade, ruby, purple.
Aww man! I wanted Yvette to let Glen say his second HMAY story, drats! 😂
😂😂 I listened to this fully on Spotify then had to hop on here to see what exactly was going on at 14:00 & it was worth it! 😅
😂😂 not her being surrounded by a hug
A guy from my hometown moved to the same area I did and I thought I saw him one day. So I made my friend stop the car and I jumped out and ran up to him and said “Hey! (Insert guy’s name)” and then realized it wasn’t him. I was already there and he wasn’t looking at me to crazy so I just committed to the conversation and whoever he was played along. So I said I’ll talk to you later, got back in my friend’s car and was like “yeah, that wasn’t him 😂” and we cracked all the way up. Then a few weeks ago at church I thought I saw a friend (new church) and I went up to her and she said “do you need something?” And I told her she looked just like someone I knew and she said “yeah, no 🫤” so I should probably just stop talking to people or stay inside from now on 😂
35:10... Hebrews 10:25 TPT 💓💯💓
This is not the time to pull away and neglect meeting together, as some have formed the habit of doing. In fact, we should come together even more frequently, eager to encourage and urge each other onward as we anticipate that day dawning.
Glen was in a mood this time. Lol
Another great episode!
Can’t wait to see your short film.🙌🏾🙏🏽❤️
This was such a fun one!
This was a dope episode!
Gotta give pee grace to a woman that has given birth, 😂. Especially to four whole babies. Blessings ya'll.
You guys are so awesome
These real life episodes are so much better than the weird questions they talk about on Tuesday!
😂 I like the questions lol it keeps me on my toes … we overcome by the blood and by the power of our testimony - revelations 11 … I’m sure it helps others relook at their situation , I saw what you said before I saw your name so I hope you don’t feel targeted but o thought it was ironic bc I tagged you in another comment with a differing opinion earlier
Y'all ARE the best!!🥰💘💘
Not glen making it hard to exist in this world😂😂😂😂 had me weak bc I be just as dramatic… entirety of your existence ,,, in this entire world … difficult due to Glen 🤣
I loved this episode. So helpful (as me and my husband can be opposites) And it made me laugh AND cry! Thank you for your transparency and reflections x
Glen, I feel like I hear you saying marriage helps us become more of the you that Christ created you to be even before you knew it and less like the person you embodied before meeting the spouse that challenges your perspective on life so much so that you are compelled to change the you that lives in the comfortable you space although you know there’s better and more. Yes?
Checking in from the DMV.
😊 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Very good.
We all need to help each other.🎉. 🎉
I came across this in my timeline, this was so beautiful the introduction was just lit ,sharing your married life ,if you are not a team player you should not be in a team, so you definitely should not be married , love your humour in togetherness. 💜💜
Created to Be His Help Meet. Book by Debi Pearl is a Great book that defines biblically what a help meet is.
Definitely has helped me in my role as a wife.
That book is wonderful for a Bible-based Christian, but in this age of women's rights it might be considered sexist.
@@Gwaycee Thank you for your comment. You have a very good point. In my walk with Christ I have come to realize that I have tried to make the bible fit Me in My life. I was wrong. It's about molding my life around Gods word. This book has definitely pointed me in the right direction of my role as a "Help Meet". Its still a good book to read.
@@Gwaycee Is there any other kind of Christian lol ? I think she was right in her first statement it was designed by God so it makes sense that we study for the role God ordained for those who are supposed to be married
@@sheilahartsock6796 thanks for posting ❤
@@MNIU_ Yes! I like how you said designed by God for those who are supposed to be married. Not everyone is ment to be married.
Also a good book to read before getting married so that you can see what you are getting yourself into.
Love the new thumbnails 🎉❤
alsoooo had to pause @ 29:48 to say A-freakin-MEN YVETTE 👏👏👏
Yvette you look great hunny !😊
This story time was hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love you guys ❤
P. S. Look up traditional and modern wedding anniversary gifts.
This was so much fun and made me laugh until about 17 mins when the vibe is shutdown 😏
I love your silly sides and stories so please don't shut down the laughter when it gets going...my favorite podcasts are the ones where you both make each other laugh for sure!!
I asked for a yellow gold ring for my ten year anniversary. It didn't happen. 😂😢
I'm sitting here, as a guy, like what are y'all taking about lol re: the ring Convo.
Hashtag with love
Whew ‼️😮💨🔥 Y’all about to hate me for this one, you know I gotta keep coming with the Facts.
See, it’s NOT that people need to be in relationships to see themselves in order to evolve. It’s the people like y’all that need that because you personally lack growth as a “Single” person so much so that you NEED to be in a relationship in order to work on yourself & become a “Better” version of yourself.
See, people who actually work on themselves who aren’t in relationships don’t have the mentality of this, when it comes to evolving in life. We’re working on ourselves daily, we don’t lie to ourselves, & every experience we endure we see it for what it was & find the lesson in it & grow from it and actually do better.
See, it’s the people who are like me & everyone else that don’t feel “Relationships” are the only pathway to becoming a better version of ourselves. We understand thing’s on a deeper level & know that we come in this world alone & we’re going to leave alone.it doesn’t mean that we aren’t growing, it simply means we understand what god has us here for & understand that everything he brings in our life is for a reason ( To grow , to evolve , to learn lessons ) we take thing’s as they come & see it for what it is. We know that nobody is “Ours” & attachments are simply something a lot of ppl have a hard time breaking from. Especially when it’s an unhealthy one.
Let me break it down, although there are people out here who believe in marriage, just as well as ppl out here who don’t based on their own personal experiences , belief system , & how they see the world overall. We’re not here to live a way of what someone “Told” us what is the right way of living. The ultimate goal in life is to become the best version of yourself & no matter what road you take to get there, it is NOT your right or calling to put yourself in God’s shoes & telling ppl how to “Get There” no matter what you “THINK” how ppl should get there, it’s not for you to put a stamp on it & say your way is the only way.
God didn’t put us here to tell anyone what they need to do in order to get to the place he all wants us to be in. The ultimate goal in life is to see thing’s for what they are & come without judgment, understand that god works in different ways & that we are all born different for a reason. It is your job to fulfill the duty that god put you here for & within that go through life with an understanding of knowing that things come in different shapes, & sizes.
It is your job to simply admire the work & love it through & through because no matter what you view something he created to be & it appears different in your lens. Understand that it is always & will always be what god intended it to be. What you view something as never exist in the eyes of god. At the end of the day what I’m saying, stop putting the energy out here that there’s only one way to get somewhere in order to become the best version of yourself & understand that god created everyone different and that our roads may not be the same but we’re all headed to the same destination.
When you see someone in a different path of yours, it is not for you to judge or crucify the way they are getting there. It is for you to understand that god sees us all the same & until you learn to look with your heart & not with your eyes , to feel with your soul & not with the thing’s you perceive. You will then understand true unconditional love. & what it truly mean to not only walk in the purpose god put you here for in order to become the best version of yourself, but to never think that someone isn’t on the same mission as you simply because of what something you perceived to be that didn’t fit your ideal image of what “Getting There” looks like. 🥷
Bro what in the world , this the most deepest comment I ever read in my life. I’m truly impressed bruh 🔥 You need a podcast like fr. You talking some STUFF. Most people don’t even think this deep. It just shows how highly intelligent & intellectual you are and I’m proud man. 💯 Feels good to know we got ppl out here that can see things in a non judgmental way. We need more ppl like you real talk.
NIV: Proverbs 27:15, Proverbs 19:13
36:+ More of your true self, IN Jesus with your helpmate, and less like your old man/flesh without Jesus + your helpmate.

my birthday is june 26 as well
41:34+/- 🔥🔥💯🔥🔥
😂😂
I'll be honest: I don't think (in this case) it was reverse racism. I have legit mistaken other Black folk for people I know (also Black). If someone changes up their appearance and I don't engage with them regularly I'm subject to mistake them for somebody else. HOWEVER, it would be bad if you were like, "Oh well you know yall all look like." 🙃
I will say that Christ is the One who ultimately completes us--especially as someone who's single I have to remember that daily. I have to submit to Him and allow Him to shape me into His image, killing my flesh, ERRYDAY. But when I look at marriage, God brings together two people who are able to compliment each other and help each other in that way, yet He is still transforming them into His image. And I think any healthy relationship will do that as well (my friends who know God challenge me, the woman who disciples me as well as the ladies under her challenge me, my church family challenges me, etc.)
I just wanted to note that because essentially I think yall said that, but sometimes single people really think they'll be more "complete" by this other person when in actuality it's Jesus who makes us complete and whole. And if we seek a person (or even a job, title, position, etc.) to complete us, then we end up making an idol out of it. We think we won't be complete or whole until we have that thing or person in our lives.
