Hey friends! We are super excited to bring you this very special episode today because it is our first ever cross over collab and we couldn't have thought of anyone we'd want to have on the podcast more than our good friends Chad and Tori Masters! Do you ever meet someone and instantly become best friends? That's what happened when we met up with Chad and Tori after getting connected through mutual friends. While we have only hung out twice, it's as if we have been friends for a lifetime. Their passion for Jesus and genuine friendship is a huge encouragement for us and our family. We hope you enjoy our conversations of the first year of marriage and getting to hear some of the Masters' story on this exclusive episode. Be sure too follow Chad and Tori on Instagram and YouTube as well as their daily devotional podcast, The Messy Masterpiece wherever you listen to podcasts.Follow us on IG:@asformeandmyhousepodcast@milenaciciotti @jordanciciottiSubscribe to As For Me and My House Podcast and Milena’s Channel on YouTubeJoin our Facebook Group: As For Me and My House PodcastA loving environment to talk all things podcast, share prayer requests and praise reports!

How Death Can Bring Life

This week’s podcast episode focuses on various practical ways to break out of a dry season spiritually. The important thing to remember as Christians is that we don’t have to rush God’s timing. Of course we want to feel the Lord’s presence in amazing ways all the time, but we also trust that there is purpose in the “valleys” and He will use it all for His glory and our good. If you’ve been wanting to rekindle the fire in your spirit and walk closer with the Lord, tune in to hear some resources and habits that have helped us tremendously.Follow us on IG:@asformeandmyhousepodcast@milenaciciotti @jordanciciottiSubscribe to As For Me and My House Podcast and Milena’s Channel on YouTubeJoin our Facebook Group: As For Me and My House PodcastA loving environment to talk all things podcast, share prayer requests and praise reports!

Bible Q and A with a Bible Teacher

Greetings and God’s blessings on you, friends! We are super excited to share some thoughts about how we are intentionally raising our children to know the Lord. You may recall we did an episode about whether or not you should indoctrinate your children and this episode builds on that conversation. Once you decide how you and your spouse as a team are going to raise your children, it’s time to put together an intentional strategy to make that plan happen. This episode shares a little bit of our strategy and we hope it helps you as you consider these things in your own life.

Leading Your Children to Know Jesus

You’ve heard us in previous episodes talk about how comparison is the enemy to joy, and due to popular demand, we wanted to revisit this idea. There is a psychological, practical, and of course spiritual element to how and why we compare ourselves to others. Tune in as we unpack comparison more and how you can change your perspective to a healthy viewpoint based on what God’s Word says.

Conquering Comparison + MAJOR Compassion Update

WOW Y’all! We cannot believe it’s been four years since we stood at the altar before God, each other, and our loved ones to vow our commitment as husband and wife. In one sense, it’s flown by--and in the other, it’s felt like we’ve spent a lifetime together already! In this episode, we wanted to share four lessons we would've taught ourselves four years ago, and also share some details from our wedding day + honeymoon that we’ve never talked about at length before. If you are preparing for marriage or already well into it, we pray this episode encourages you!A big thank you to our sponsors:Get free shipping when you sign up to receive your child’s play kits at Lovevery.com/myhouseSave 50% or more on life insurance by comparing quotes at policygenius.com/myhouselifeGet connected with a mental health professional in a safe and secure online setting and save 10% on your first month at betterhelp.com/myhouseTo learn more about SimpliSafe can help protect you and your family, visit simplisafe.com/myhouse today to customize your system and get a free security camera as well as a 60 day risk-free trial.Follow us on IG:@asformeandmyhousepodcast@milenaciciotti @jordanciciottiSubscribe to As For Me and My House Podcast and Milena’s Channel on YouTubeJoin our Facebook Group: As For Me and My House PodcastA loving environment to talk all things podcast, share prayer requests and praise reports!

4 Lessons We'd Teach Our Younger Selves + Wedding Video Reaction

One of the biggest breakthroughs in our relationship as husband and wife has come from setting healthy boundaries in our marriage. When we experienced the reality of setting up a system to protect, prevent, and prosper our relationship, it had a ripple effect on our relationship with our children, family, and friends as well. Of course the ultimate expression of relationship for those of us who belong to the Lord is to be in close fellowship with Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit. If this foundation is unstable, it makes for turbulence and discord in every other relationship. We want to share some lessons we’ve learned along the way in hopes of being a source of encouragement and admonition for those of us who seek to honor God in our relationships.

Engaged At 19 and 20: Our Story

Hey friends! Thank you for being here as we share our hearts on some rather important (and debated) philosophies when it comes to disciplining children. We are limited in our direct experience as parents in that our children are very little, but we do have perspective from our childhood that we want to offer as teaching points as well. Our goal is not to tell you what is right and what is wrong, nor how you ought to discipline your own children, but merely to have a discussion and provide our two cents. If we can give you any tools to add to your parenting toolbelt, then our goal will be reached.

Disciplining Children

Thank you all for your questions and perspectives for this episode!  We learned a ton and hope you found our discussion beneficial for you if you've ever walked (or are now walking) in a season of anger, frustration, uncertainty, or worry due to postpartum depression.  It is totally possible and normal for fathers to experience the ripple effects of this also, and their feelings should not be stifled.  Press into the Lord Jesus with your spouse and communicate your hearts to one another during a time of peace and clarity of thought.  May the lessons we learned encourage, empower, equip, and and enable you to better serve and love those in your life who may be wrestling with the whirlwind of postpartum emotions that come with being a new parent.  Lord bless!Compassion InternationalBe a part of releasing children from poverty in Jesus’ name at compassion.com/myhouse *When you sponsor a child, you'll receive a free tee shirt from Milena's Lion of Judah Collection while supplies last!  If you're interested in this option, click the above link and a pop up will direct you to more info!Follow us on IG and share us on your IG stories for a chance to win coffee on us this week!@asformeandmyhousepodcast@milenaciciotti @jordanciciottiSubscribe to As For Me and My House Podcast and Milena’s Channel on YouTubeJoin our Facebook Group: As For Me and My House PodcastA loving environment to talk all things podcast, share prayer requests and praise reports!
