I have a question. How do males and females bond with each other? I don't see how men and women can bond (especially romantically) with each other. Men and women think very differently from each other. It seems like it's impossible for men and women to emotionally connect with each other. Men and women's brains are wired too differently from each other. Women are more hardwired to be social than men are.
Listen, I’m not married, not in a relationship, not dating…I’m not even sure if I still like men🤦🏾♀️ but this interview was so insightful and fun! I love when people can be vulnerable and raw, especially us Christian folks.
You still like men they don't always follow God's plan all the time but they still Loveable and that certain someone could be waiting to find the beautiful and blessed Kasmine.
Healing is key. Becoming whole from the inside out is key. Learning to love God and ourselves is the greatest love of all. The Bible says: Love your neighbor as yourself.". Only then can we love others. Our obedience to God in a relationship and life is key. Marriage is between a man and a woman only, God's way. There is an online course called TOU which stands for The One University which is worth looking into. May God continue to bless u.
Wow. When Kirk said “Marriage was never second nature for me. Work was second nature. I fell into family,” I felt this on my SOUL. Wow. I’m the one in the marriage that has a million things going on at any one time because, as he said, “ideation is in my DNA.” Marriage is work for me because I didn’t have a model for it growing up, whereas my husband did. Phew. So good.
It’s crazy how much this conversation has mirrored so many of the early Love Hour conversations! You all are so similar! Beautiful couples & a beautiful conversation!
The adjective to describe how good this is has not yet been created. 🔥 As I’ve said for a long time, Kev and Melissa, your platforms are a collective, unorthodox ministry in a league of its own.
This was NEEDED! As a single woman it was sobering, inspirational, exciting, encouraging. It was ALL THE THINGS! I needed this! I loved this! It made being Christian a lighter space, it made waiting for marriage a more joyous place, and it made the goal of marriage realistic as opposed to a fairy tale. Thank y'all so much for this! I CAN NOT WAIT for the book!
I’ve been married for 6 yrs now and even though I have decent amount of people in my family who have been married for 20 plus years, they never would sit down with myself and my cousins and just talk to us openly as a couple. I’ve seen them angry and talking down about one another but never as a united front. So as a wife now I’ve been working and fighting alongside my husband to make sure we do it the right way, and it’s so refreshing to be able to watch a conversation like this that is full of so much love laughter and wisdom between husbands wives who are doing the work and showing up as a united front.
Listennn...as a single woman still affirming at 46 that I am a wife and a mother, I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and look forward to watching the others. It's so easy to get caught up in the fantasy and romance of it all when you haven't experienced it yet, so I'm always telling my married friends not to give me the churchy, Christianese packaged version but keep it real, raw with mud, dirt and worms! 😄
My friends were always saying ",You don't want to get married" I thought YOU did. I never understood that...I saw some good to be being married and I thought they would too since they were married 😌
This convo feels like marriage… the feminine and masculine perspective the laughs the seriousness it’s the building of one another service to one another that gets you through, marriage is beautiful it’s crazy how we live in different spaces different years of marriage but have many of the same struggles I am not a star but I function in the same manor. This was so good…
This was…..wow!!!!!! It’s up there with the Tab & Chance Love Hour podcast interview. Top 3 couple interviews for sure!!! The parallels between y’all, the transparency, the inspiration, THE BEAUTY!!! 😍😍😍 Allllll the thiiiiiiings!!!! I thought I would multitask while listening, but this was mesmerizing. I couldn’t take my eyes off. 😩 Thank y’all for this! Can’t wait for my book to arrive. 📖❤️
I thought the same thing!!!!!! This interview is a favorite for sure. I feel all the feels, just like I did after the Tab and Chance interview. The synergy between the couples was amazing to watch!
Kirk Franklin is a wise man. I love his transparency and honesty. Kirk was spot on, people look at how long people are together and not the health of their relationship. GEMS💎💎💎❤️
When I say Mrs. Tammy is an entire force to be reckoned with!! I love her quick wit, intelligence, and realness and Uncle Kirk’s great wisdom, emotional intelligence, and comfortability in her flourishing. And Kev and Melissa, always so generous, genuine, and insightful with us. I pray their reward is even more than the priceless chemistry and relationship being cultivated between them and the Franklins😊
I love that she acknowledged that people are obsessed with how LONG someone has been married but they don’t take the time to actually THINK for themselves about whether the marriage is healthy or not. I think people believe lies about marriage and one is that length of marriage somehow guarantees health. People really need to start thinking for themselves for once. Sounds harsh but peoples u willingness to question what they’ve been taught is leading to their failure and them also teaching others terrible concepts that aren’t actually helpful.
Y’all know I’m wit the stagekrew. And I wanna say. This is one of the many reasons why I follow y’all. It’s healthy conversation and black love all in wrapped up in one.
Oooh when Tammy spoke about getting into the psyche and emotion of a man and learning his ways but not getting it in return. Ugh that hit home. That has always been my problem in my past relationships and dating and I’ve always assumed it was me simply picking the wrong men but to know that it can still be an obstacle to work through even in a marriage is really eye opening. This is so good and I’m definitely going to continue to watch more episodes and I’m buying the audiobook. ❤️
This conversation was too good for words. The chemistry between the hosts Kev & Liss and the guests Kirk & Tammy is crazy. It didn't feel "interviewy" at all but a good conversation between old friends. The way they relate to each other with similar great life & marriage experiences that bring out wisdom. This was so beautiful guys. I've always loved Tammy but in this conversation I LOVEDDDDDD her. Liss found her twin she was like "this is me" so cute. Well done, looking forward to more conversations.
OMG I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS CONVERSATION! I don’t know why at 49 yrs of age and still single, God is drawing me to these marriage podcasts. I absolutely love you guys! My single self will be buying the book tuday!
I'm learning from my own life experiences that being single was something that I had to experienced with God and myself that church haven't taught me. I'm 54 and believe that I more ready for marriage than my younger years.
This episode is sooopp GOOD!! 😆🤣🤣🤣 “where DA LOTION AT!???!!!!” Kirk is a whole mess!!!! And love how they’re just being transparent and real. And not being fake!
I swear this is a moment of deliverance for so so many of us. Especially black people who have never seen married people in Christ, who are honest and transparent. We’ve seen the divorces, the adultery, the resentment and also the Instagram pics but never REAL people who are still in the ring. So grateful for this episode. God bless these two unions.
Sooo amazing to see/hear how marriage sanctifies and keeps people safe! How God puts 2 people together as a circuit breaker for when possibly sinful traits are getting too much - e.g. selfishness, or tuning out others' feelings/thoughts. You always have to come back to your wife when work is over - and exercise that muscle of selflessness that got weak in the workplace!!!
My husband and I just finished watching this after tears of constant laughter. I married him at 21 and it's been 18 years and we truly enjoyed listening to all of you. We can relate on ALL of this. Thanks for being so transparent. That's my favorite part.
Although I am single, I am soo grateful for this series. In all thy getting, get understanding. I appreciate the transparency, vulnerability, and humor expressed by both couples. Tfs
This was sooooooo goooood! The way in which Kirk and Tammy allowed each the other the space to talk and listened. I loved how Kirk kept redirecting to a God centered view and when he spoke about his vision in worship about how he sees people arriving at the gate to meet Jesus was just beautiful and so true. We don’t arrive perfect we get there because of the endurance of what we have been through and through Him we are made perfect on that day. This interview was was excellent.
This conversation is a GAME CHANGER!! First of all, Kirk and Tammy, THANK YOU for being so real (down to the cussin' cuz that's real)! I'm thrilled that so many married church folks are talking about marriage in this very REAL way. We have to shatter the fairytale! There's an idea that marriage is no longer relevant or desired but there are many of us out here who still desire marriage and NEED these kinds of real conversations! I can't thank you all enough.
This interview was absolute gold. I was interested all the way thru. I smiled, I laughed, I eared teared up, I agreed; it was a gamut of emotions. A well of knowledge that overflowed. This was excellence.
OMG!! This is one of the best interviews I have seen you all do. And to think, I didn’t think y’all could top the Tab & Chance interview. I never knew much about Tammy, but I love her now!
This conversation was EVERYTHING!!! The transparency and vulnerability that all of displayed has given me a new perspective on marriage. I think if I heard these things before I probably wouldn’t be divorced..God’s peace and blessings to all of you.
I don't have the energy to go into the details, but I want to say that even though marriage is not in my future, this was deeply healing to me in a number of ways. Our God is so gracious.
OH MY GOD!!! This soooo sounds like my marriage. We are at 22 years and MARRIAGE IS HARD!!!! I tell people all the time, it's easy to say I want to get married, but are you a person who will work or a person who quit and give up all the time, because marriage is work, grass is not greener on this side. AMEN! I LOVE THIS MESSAGE!!!! I RECEIVE EVERYTHING YOU ALLL HAD TO SAY. YES I AM SCREAM, BECAUSE THIS HIT MY SOUL!!
When Kev said, "Ballerinas have bloody toes." I cried. Thank you all for having this sit down, and sharing it with us. This was right on time. Just got the book. Excited to dive in!
Love. Love this! Love the intention, honesty. My husband and I have been married 31 yrs and wish we had this when we were going thru. The help its going to give newly married couples will be great if they listen and take the advice. As a "Christian " and going to couples retreats was never like this and the truth was never told! The older couples thar were married 45-50 yrs only told you don't give up when it gets hard, pray and you'll make it thru. So keep up the good work and open and honest conversation! Blessed
I’m just binge watching all of these episodes during a free day off and I want to say thank you so so so so much for these conversations. The teachings, laughs and moments of love through your own personal stories & the lives of your guests are such a treasure and I can’t wait to read your book. This has been my favorite episode so far ❤️
I agree with the living LEGEND about IG. People will always show you what they want you to see🤷🏾♀️ We’ve all seen the “perfect” couple later coming out and saying “he did this” or “she did this”
Kirk & Tammy kept it real! These are so good. Please Kev & Melissa keep them coming. Ooh when he said don’t have the OFF Button, she said rule follower & he’s not. Chile!
Liss: I am married to a kite. I am perpetually the string. The conversation about the broken off switch and selfishness resonated with me in ways I cannot put into words. (16 years in the game)
First off, CONGRATULATIONS on the book.. And this interview is everything!!! As a woman who has been married twice and now in the dating world over 50 this is giving me life... I have the same sentiments MARRIAGE BE HARD!! So kudos to yall for being transparent and letting the world know being in a CHRISTIAN MARRIAGE be hard...
Very good always enjoy interviews w/Kirk Franklin he seems so genuine and real. And Tammy as well she always seems honest and genuine. Beautiful couple in and out 💗😊
Kirk 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. I loveeeeeeeeeed every bit of it en the uncomfortable conversations en topics too that are suppressed in church environments... I could watch this over en over... Never gets realer than this y'all.
OOOMMMGGG!!!!! I want to comment about so many parts of this episode, y’all had me cracking up, thinking deeply, taking notes, eyes watering thinking of the grace of God! My fav was the image Kirk painted of us finishing our walk all wounded coming to our Father to be completely and forever healed😭😭 Buying the book for sure!!
Omg, I had this conversation with my husband about having a voice now at 43 and I say what I have to say now when before I wouldn't have said anything. This is conformation for my soul. Thank you Lord for this word. The entire conversation is healing.
Wow!!!!! Thank you, all 4 of you for your honesty and bravery to share the realness of being black, married and Christian. May God bless your ministries and marriages. I'm buying the book 📖 ‼️Love you guys🖤🖤🖤🖤
Kirk: I’m sorry y’all for cussing
Tammy: Everybody know you cuss
Me: 😂😂😂😂
❤this we need more as soon as you replenish your spirit soul and body this was great!!!!!
I knew Kirk was gonna cuss before it even started 😂😂😂😂
I didn't know he cussed. This was new to me😁😆😁
Can I get a time stamp for this? 😂
@@MsAlyssaBrionne 26:44 😂😂😂
This was amazing! I feel like I just went to a comedy club, church and a marriage counselor! 😮😊
The perfect trifecta! 😁
Absolutely 💯
😂😂😂 facts!
That's good !!!!
😮i😮” you i😮l😮😅i
Can we take a moment to acknowledge the vocabulary used in this episode?!😭 I love it!!
Lmbo Kirk using all the big words!
I was thinking the same thing!!!
You can tell he's an artist and a song writer!
Thought it was just me! Lol. I was like, that’s how he be writing all them meaningful songs. The words are in his spirit! 😂
Yes 🙌🏽 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This is SOOOOO GOOOODDDD First of all, I can listen to Kirk all day. He is filled with so much wisdom and he and Tammy are just so honest and real.
💞💞💞💞Oh My Goodness!!! LOVED, LOVED, LOVED THIS!!!!!
Me too. I get so much from his commentary.
Like a man giving birth to a vision 🥴

Same here!!
Well said, & 🙋🏽♀️same here.
Me too. So hard I feel like I’m going crazy
“You said you were impressed with me, go back to that part” Tammy is hilarious 🤣🤣
I am so excited for this series! I got my notepad ready! 📖✍️ My husband and I just celebrated our first year of marriage! 🥰🎉
My husband and I will be celebrating our first year of marriage too.
Absolutely they were speaking truth!!!
I am too‼️
Screaming 🗣CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations to both couples 🎉🍾
It’s crazy how much this conversation has mirrored so many of the early Love Hour conversations! You all are so similar! Beautiful couples & a beautiful conversation!
I was thinking this! I was wondering if it was intentional because it so perfectly called back to the early love hour days!
Facts...I thought Melissa was going to reference Melissa 2.0
The adjective to describe how good this is has not yet been created. 🔥 As I’ve said for a long time, Kev and Melissa, your platforms are a collective, unorthodox ministry in a league of its own.
88 is a mi 9
I love what you said because this truly was powerful.
Kirk giving Kevin ammunition to cuss😂😂
😂😂😂
The way he keep eggin Kev on🤣🤣🤣
I was thinking that too lol
This was NEEDED! As a single woman it was sobering, inspirational, exciting, encouraging. It was ALL THE THINGS! I needed this! I loved this! It made being Christian a lighter space, it made waiting for marriage a more joyous place, and it made the goal of marriage realistic as opposed to a fairy tale. Thank y'all so much for this! I CAN NOT WAIT for the book!
Yes i agree with you sis! I feel the exact same way
🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️ preach!!! You reading my mind!!
You are somebody God loves you the right one will come thst black man is preparing his self for you
My sentiments too😍
Y'all have definitely found your niche this is going to be a hit. I'm excited to hear all the interviews you guys have lined up.
I’ve been married for 6 yrs now and even though I have decent amount of people in my family who have been married for 20 plus years, they never would sit down with myself and my cousins and just talk to us openly as a couple. I’ve seen them angry and talking down about one another but never as a united front.

Thank you all a million times! 54yr old and married for 32years. This gives me words to go with the feelings! #healthymarriage
Listennn...as a single woman still affirming at 46 that I am a wife and a mother, I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and look forward to watching the others. It's so easy to get caught up in the fantasy and romance of it all when you haven't experienced it yet, so I'm always telling my married friends not to give me the churchy, Christianese packaged version but keep it real, raw with mud, dirt and worms! 😄
lol @ Christianese!
My friends were always saying ",You don't want to get married" I thought YOU did. I never understood that...I saw some good to be being married and I thought they would too since they were married 😌
I thoroughly enjoyed this. I love how authentic Tammy and Kirk are. We need more of this.
This convo feels like marriage… the feminine and masculine perspective the laughs the seriousness it’s the building of one another service to one another that gets you through, marriage is beautiful it’s crazy how we live in different spaces different years of marriage but have many of the same struggles I am not a star but I function in the same manor. This was so good…
I needed Every Part of this. Thank you Kev, Melissa, Tammie, and Kirk for your honesty.
This was…..wow!!!!!! It’s up there with the Tab & Chance Love Hour podcast interview. Top 3 couple interviews for sure!!!

That's exactly my experience 😱 this was just everything
Kirk Franklin is a wise man. I love his transparency and honesty.
Kirk was spot on, people look at how long people are together and not the health of their relationship. GEMS💎💎💎❤️
as a single woman this has been very insightful probably one of the best podcast eps that ive heard in while WELL DONE BOTH COUPLES
When Kev said “danger , she smashed the homie”. . . Memories of my childhood and the Love of Ray J popped in my mind 😂😂😂
Okay but I want a whole show/series of you and the Franklins talking about the book. More. I need a 6-part series.
I love the vulnerability. Christians can be so uptight it's crazy. Love this!
When I say Mrs. Tammy is an entire force to be reckoned with!! I love her quick wit, intelligence, and realness and Uncle Kirk’s great wisdom, emotional intelligence, and comfortability in her flourishing. And Kev and Melissa, always so generous, genuine, and insightful with us.

I scrolled all the way down here just to hear a brother's perspective.
Yes, I agree :-)
This was the most real faith based marriage conversation I have ever seen! This was absolutely amazing!! This is MINISTRY!!! Kudos!!!!
Oooh when Tammy spoke about getting into the psyche and emotion of a man and learning his ways but not getting it in return. Ugh that hit home. That has always been my problem in my past relationships and dating and I’ve always assumed it was me simply picking the wrong men but to know that it can still be an obstacle to work through even in a marriage is really eye opening. This is so good and I’m definitely going to continue to watch more episodes and I’m buying the audiobook. ❤️
FORREALLL!!!
I made it for the premiere, but we still REWATCH GANG GANG out here!!
This conversation was too good for words. The chemistry between the hosts Kev & Liss and the guests Kirk & Tammy is crazy. It didn't feel "interviewy" at all but a good conversation between old friends. The way they relate to each other with similar great life & marriage experiences that bring out wisdom. This was so beautiful guys. I've always loved Tammy but in this conversation I LOVEDDDDDD her. Liss found her twin she was like "this is me" so cute. Well done, looking forward to more conversations.
That “you seen me putting lotion on my legs “ made me real life holler out laughing….so real😂😂😂
OMG I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS CONVERSATION! I don’t know why at 49 yrs of age and still single, God is drawing me to these marriage podcasts. I absolutely love you guys! My single self will be buying the book tuday!
Same, chile....same
I'm 48 so I definitely understand
It’s prep. Get ready 🙂
46 and single too, and I understand too🙏🏾
I'm learning from my own life experiences that being single was something that I had to experienced with God and myself that church haven't taught me. I'm 54 and believe that I more ready for marriage than my younger years.
This episode is sooopp GOOD!! 😆🤣🤣🤣 “where DA LOTION AT!???!!!!” Kirk is a whole mess!!!! And love how they’re just being transparent and real. And not being fake!
Immediately followed Tammy after this interview. I’m ecstatic she found her voice.
I swear this is a moment of deliverance for so so many of us. Especially black people who have never seen married people in Christ, who are honest and transparent. We’ve seen the divorces, the adultery, the resentment and also the Instagram pics but never REAL people who are still in the ring. So grateful for this episode. God bless these two unions.

You always have to come back to your wife when work is over - and exercise that muscle of selflessness that got weak in the workplace!!!
Yes!!!
BOL “we heard the tape”. Omg I spit my water out.
TIME STAMP 😭😭
My husband and I just finished watching this after tears of constant laughter. I married him at 21 and it's been 18 years and we truly enjoyed listening to all of you. We can relate on ALL of this. Thanks for being so transparent. That's my favorite part.
Although I am single, I am soo grateful for this series. In all thy getting, get understanding. I appreciate the transparency, vulnerability, and humor expressed by both couples. Tfs
I was just thinking as a single woman of the slightly more seasoned variety (43), this is blessing me!
Kirk preached a whole word and then some: "Welcome to church, no human allowed"
A WHOLE word!!!
Don’t that sound like a whole new Kirk album?
This was sooooooo goooood! The way in which Kirk and Tammy allowed each the other the space to talk and listened. I loved how Kirk kept redirecting to a God centered view and when he spoke about his vision in worship about how he sees people arriving at the gate to meet Jesus was just beautiful and so true. We don’t arrive perfect we get there because of the endurance of what we have been through and through Him we are made perfect on that day. This interview was was excellent.
I am in tears because of the humor, the honesty and transparency, the gems being dropped and the experiences.
I told the church when I 1st was baptized that Being a Christian is hard...preach!
This conversation is a GAME CHANGER!! First of all, Kirk and Tammy, THANK YOU for being so real (down to the cussin' cuz that's real)! I'm thrilled that so many married church folks are talking about marriage in this very REAL way. We have to shatter the fairytale! There's an idea that marriage is no longer relevant or desired but there are many of us out here who still desire marriage and NEED these kinds of real conversations! I can't thank you all enough.
This interview was absolute gold. I was interested all the way thru. I smiled, I laughed, I eared teared up, I agreed; it was a gamut of emotions. A well of knowledge that overflowed. This was excellence.
The uncomfortable looks on the guys faces are priceless. Lol!!
OMG!! This is one of the best interviews I have seen you all do. And to think, I didn’t think y’all could top the Tab & Chance interview. I never knew much about Tammy, but I love her now!
My thoughts and feels exactly. 🙏🏾
This conversation was EVERYTHING!!! The transparency and vulnerability that all of displayed has given me a new perspective on marriage. I think if I heard these things before I probably wouldn’t be divorced..God’s peace and blessings to all of you.
These conversations are so needed. As a single woman, I listened to help prepare me for my marriage. Thank you!
This interview was soooo good. I kept pausing to go share the discussion with my husband throughout the whole show.
This was excellent!!
Kirk: Sorry don’t mean to curse
Kev: We know you cuss we heard the tape
I just can’t!!! 😂😂😂😂
Melissa is a gem! ❤️ Loved Tammy and Kirk Franklin. Positive, uplifting, good heart. Thank you so much .
I don't have the energy to go into the details, but I want to say that even though marriage is not in my future, this was deeply healing to me in a number of ways. Our God is so gracious.
You’re doing great work for the black community including for those of us in the diaspora.
OH MY GOD!!! This soooo sounds like my marriage. We are at 22 years and MARRIAGE IS HARD!!!! I tell people all the time, it's easy to say I want to get married, but are you a person who will work or a person who quit and give up all the time, because marriage is work, grass is not greener on this side. AMEN! I LOVE THIS MESSAGE!!!! I RECEIVE EVERYTHING YOU ALLL HAD TO SAY. YES I AM SCREAM, BECAUSE THIS HIT MY SOUL!!
The Frederickses and The Franklins. Fr Fr. 🫶🏾🫶🏾 Great talk!
This was so NECESSARY! I loved every moment every word and every laugh. This is INCLUSIVITY at its finest!
When Kev said, "Ballerinas have bloody toes." I cried. Thank you all for having this sit down, and sharing it with us. This was right on time. Just got the book. Excited to dive in!
I'm not married and I enjoyed this conversation. Real talk
Loved this! The Franklins can write a book on seasons of marriage.
Wow…my husband says the same thing about giving me everything God forbid we separate. In my eyes, he’s Superman & always has been! ❤️
We're almost at 20 years, too. I'll be 40 in March. I am Tammy and Melissa. My husband is older so it's very tough for him. He'll be ok 😂😂😂.
"It's not hard...I just have words....I have words for feelings that I say on 20yeats ago"......YEAH! That's it right there!
Love. Love this! Love the intention, honesty. My husband and I have been married 31 yrs and wish we had this when we were going thru. The help its going to give newly married couples will be great if they listen and take the advice. As a "Christian " and going to couples retreats was never like this and the truth was never told! The older couples thar were married 45-50 yrs only told you don't give up when it gets hard, pray and you'll make it thru. So keep up the good work and open and honest conversation! Blessed
I’m just binge watching all of these episodes during a free day off and I want to say thank you so so so so much for these conversations.

This was a deep and profound interview, wow 😭
Thank you thank you thank you …. THESE ARE THE HONEST CONVERSATIONS NEEDED… for marriages tahday!!!

It's the tahday for me 😊😂
I agree with the living LEGEND about IG. People will always show you what they want you to see🤷🏾♀️ We’ve all seen the “perfect” couple later coming out and saying “he did this” or “she did this”
This was giving Black Love. This was giving… Love Hour. I just loved it.
I love this. Tammy is so pleasant and Kirk is so over the top! Lol I’m the same with my bf. He’s so extra! 😂😂
Kirk & Tammy kept it real!
These are so good. Please Kev & Melissa keep them coming.
Ooh when he said don’t have the OFF Button, she said rule follower & he’s not. Chile!
I still aspire to be married and your podcasts and book has really helped me and it has helped me communicate better in my new relationship
Liss: I am married to a kite. I am perpetually the string. The conversation about the broken off switch and selfishness resonated with me in ways I cannot put into words. (16 years in the game)
To Quote Mrs Franklin” This is so needed” Love this and Love you Both. Real Grown up truth on Marriage,
First off, CONGRATULATIONS on the book.. And this interview is everything!!! As a woman who has been married twice and now in the dating world over 50 this is giving me life... I have the same sentiments MARRIAGE BE HARD!! So kudos to yall for being transparent and letting the world know being in a CHRISTIAN MARRIAGE be hard...

I'm a single person, but this convo has been such a light!!!!
Very good always enjoy interviews w/Kirk Franklin he seems so genuine and real. And Tammy as well she always seems honest and genuine. Beautiful couple in and out 💗😊
Kirk 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. I loveeeeeeeeeed every bit of it en the uncomfortable conversations en topics too that are suppressed in church environments... I could watch this over en over... Never gets realer than this y'all.
OOOMMMGGG!!!!! I want to comment about so many parts of this episode, y’all had me cracking up, thinking deeply, taking notes, eyes watering thinking of the grace of God! My fav was the image Kirk painted of us finishing our walk all wounded coming to our Father to be completely and forever healed😭😭
Buying the book for sure!!
Omg, I had this conversation with my husband about having a voice now at 43 and I say what I have to say now when before I wouldn't have said anything. This is conformation for my soul. Thank you Lord for this word. The entire conversation is healing.
Wow!!!!! Thank you, all 4 of you for your honesty and bravery to share the realness of being black, married and Christian. May God bless your ministries and marriages. I'm buying the book 📖 ‼️Love you guys🖤🖤🖤🖤

This is so good. My books are to be delivered today. Bought one for my nephew and his wife. So excited.
I’ve watched them in many interviews and never heard them in this way. Laughed, learned, and appreciated the openness. Great conversation!
