04 | Getting to the Heart of the Issue - How Heart Posture Affects Your Marriage

Episode 4: Getting to the Heart of the Issue - How Heart Posture Affects the Entire Family
Are you feeling disconnected from your spouse, children, or even your ministry? It could be that your heart posture needs adjusting. In this episode, we dive deep into the importance of heart posture in every area of life—serving, work, marriage, and parenting—and how it affects not just you but the entire family.
I’m Micaiah Gray, and I’ve learned firsthand that God cares most about the posture of our hearts—not just our actions. Whether it's serving others, working with purpose, loving our spouse, or disciplining our children, everything flows from the heart. If your heart is aligned with God’s will, peace and harmony will follow.
In this episode, we’ll discuss:
Heart posture in serving: Are we serving with joy and using our gifts to honor God?
Heart posture in work and ministry: Do you do everything as unto the Lord, not for praise or attention?
Heart posture in marriage: Are you loving and serving your spouse as Christ loves the church?
Heart posture in parenting: Are you parenting with patience and love, or frustration and anger?
Scripture guides us in all these areas, reminding us to focus on the heart behind our actions (Colossians 3:23-24, Mark 10:45, Philippians 4:8). When we focus on our heart posture, it transforms our relationships and our families.
 
🎧 Action Step: Start by checking your heart posture in one area today—whether it’s in serving, your work, marriage, or parenting. Ask God to reveal where He wants you to grow and change.
