As For Me And My House

Hey friends! This week’s episode is a continuation in our examination of the various ways in which the world’s ideas have influenced our way of life. Join us as we look at what God is calling us to regarding His institution of marriage versus the rationale the world has to offer. May God richly bless you and lead you into all truth!

Hey friends! We are thrilled to hear your feedback from last week’s episode, and how so many of you are thinking and feeling the same as we are regarding the need to take an objective look at the world around us. As we delve into our series on opting out of the ways of the world, we—like you—desire to re-examine our approach to things like marriage, raising kids, and finances in light of everythin...

Hey friends! Have you felt that it is becoming increasingly difficult in our world today to raise children in the way of the Lord and seek to live out the Scriptures in a practical way? We shouldn’t be surprised by this, as we are told throughout the Bible that we are in a spiritual battle and that we who know Jesus are “in the world but no longer of the world.” Still it seems that we are highly u...

Hey friends! This week’s episode is probably going to be a spicy one, but necessary. We want to encourage our listeners who have children how important your role as a mother or a father are in your child’s life. Confusion around the specific roles and identity of mother and father in our world today has caused a ripple effect to our children. It’s our desire to revert to an ancient, Biblical model...

Hey friends! In this episode, we are sharing our 2¢ on what our family & parenting plan will be as we get ready to welcome our newest addition to team Ciciotti. If you’re a new parent, first time parent, or expanding your family with us, please share with us your thoughts and feedback on what your plans look like as you make adjustments to your family rhythms. God bless you tremendously! Thank...

“Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.” - ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭13‬:‭2‬. Hey y’all! Join us on this episode as we share some of the ways we show hospitality and use our home as ground zero for ministry opportunities. As Christians, we ought to be opening up our homes as much as possible to bring others into the world of the gospel on display. Sha...

Hey all! On today's episode, we discuss some of the key mistakes we made (and still sometimes make) when it comes to our marriage and how we are striving to improve in those areas. If you want to fail in marriage, do what we did and make no changes, LOL. If however, you want to have forward progress in your marriage and not continually run into the same problems over and over, this episode is for...

Hey friends! We are honored to have our dear brother and sister in Christ, Elisha and Katie, from Now That We're A Family on today's episode! We often hear about the downside of having children in today's day and age, and that position is only growing more and more popular in society. But what if we took seriously God's intent for our lives to be fruitful and multiply in all aspects of our lives,...

Hello Friends and Happy 2024! We pray your year is off to a good start thus far. Since announcing the news that we are expecting again, we thought it would be the perfect opportunity for Jordan to share seven ways to care for your wife during pregnancy in hopes of helping other husbands out there when they experience it. If you're a mama, let us know in the comments what your husband has done that...

Hey friends! It's hard to believe this is our last episode of 2023!! We are just blown away at the love and support y'all have shown us this year and we are so grateful you've been with us for the journey. We wanted to share some new adjustments we are making to our Christmas traditions in an attempt to honor the Lord in how we observe and celebrate the coming of Jesus. While we are certainly not...

What’s up Fam! Today we’re diving into the nitty gritty of what the life of a Christian should truly look like– glorifying God in ALL things. On this Christian walk, it’s crucial to reflect often, taking the time to determine if our habits are truly reflecting Christ as they should. God has given us His Spirit which allows us to live a life that is pleasing and honoring unto Him. With Christ we ca...

Hey friends! Wow, this episode was emotional for us (clearly lol). We thought it would be cool to take a look at some of the aspects of Jesus’s encounters with others in the gospels—and this week in particular—how his hands played such a powerful role in his ministry. We pray this episode blesses you as it has blessed us. We are honored you’re here! A big thank you to today’s sponsors! Caden Lane:...

Hey friends! On today’s show, we are discussing some practical ways to implement rhythms of instilling Biblical truths in your household from the time your kids are very little all the way through their young adult years. The Bible tells us that when we train up children in the way of the Lord, they will not depart from it when they are older (proverbs 22:6). And when Jesus was asked about the hea...

Hey friends! As you can tell, we are in a different set for today’s show, thanks to our friends at XO Marriage, whom we had the pleasure to spend some time with at their brand new headquarters facility in Southlake, Texas. We are looking forward to doing some fun stuff with XO in 2024, and can’t wait for y’all to experience it with us! On today’s episode, we provide some thoughts about how we spea...

Hey y’all! It’s been a minute since we did a Q&A and these were some GOOD questions you sent in! Let us know in the comments your thoughts on the topics discussed, and tell us what questions you want us to answer next time! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey friends! As we pivot slightly away from our most recent series on the Spirit Realm, we thought a discussion on Halloween is both timely and relevant to what we've been discussing previously. While we both grew up trick or treating, dressing in costumes, and even going to ghost and ghoul-themed parties, our perspective on how we choose to observe Halloween has shifted greatly since becoming par...

Last week we examined some of the discussions surrounding the first-generation Nephilim and what the ancient historical records mention about their reign of terror in the antediluvian (pre-flood) world. This week, we are discussing the post-flood return of the Nephilim and looking at some theories surrounding how they came to be. Regardless of how exactly they reappeared after the flood, we know t...

Hey y'all! On today's show, we are tackling one of our favorite Biblical topics to explore: The Nephilim. Who were they? How did they come to be? What does the Bible and other extra-biblical books have to say about them? If you had those questions, tune in today as we attempt to seek some clarity on the misty chapters of Genesis 4-6 and how it all fits together into God's master plan. Feel free to...

Hey fam! We hope you enjoyed the last episode featuring the Alexanders, but we are also very excited to pick back up with our conversation on the Spirit Realm! On today's show, we wrap up the rebellions that happened in the spirit realm by looking at what happened with humanity after the Tower of Babel event found in Genesis 11. God did something with the nations after Babel, and it ties in so ama...

Hello friends! We are so glad to be back with you and to share this fun episode we did with our good friends Josh and Sav before they moved across the country! While we are sad they are no longer living nearby, we are so excited for them to begin their journey in a new place close to family. Join us as we exchange stories and hear from the Alexanders in how the Lord has worked in and through them...

Well, we wish we could say we are surprised that we had to make a part 2 to this topic, but we aren't (LOL), and if you've been around here for a while, you know we can be long-winded on things. The depth of the subject matter doesn't help with how much there is to cover in only so much time, but we hope our excitement and passion for the Bible makes your time invested with us worthwhile! We are p...

Ok y'all, buckle up. If you've been intrigued by the content in this mini-series thus far (which is the overwhelming majority) then get ready to go even deeper with us today. So far, we've taken a look at the first rebellion which happened in the Garden of Eden, but now we are going to examine the second rebellion, which we are calling "The Seed War" because of the prophecy God proclaimed to satan...

Welcome back for another installment of our series on the spiritual realm! If you are new to the show, welcome! You might want to check out the previous episodes in this series, as they build onto one another each week. So far the response has been overwhelmingly positive, and we are so glad y’all are enjoying this particular topic! It has been a blast for us to research and take a dive into this...

If you were to ask a Bible-believing Christian, what the reason for all the evil in the world is, the answer you’ll most likely get is “Adam and Eve giving into temptation by the serpent.” While this is certainly a major part of the story, it is not the full answer. In today’s episode, we are continuing in our series on the spirit realm by taking a tour through three events detailed in the Bible w...

Dear AFM+MH Family--It is a joy and honor to bring you our first ever miniseries! It is our hope and prayer that this series builds up over the coming weeks and gets better with every episode to leave you eager for the subsequent episode. And we couldn't think of a better subject to discuss than the Spiritual Realm. Shrouded in mystery and misunderstanding, the Spirit Realm is a widely discussed t...
