Hearing couples who put God first in their relationship is truly beautiful.
It is ❤️❤️
I Totally agree!
You are so right ✅👏🙌
Say that
❤
I’m like Bryan. I’m a person who likes to get things done and make fast decisions..... sometimes which ends up in bad endings. God chastised me about this and I’m now learning to lean on God and not my own understanding.....: Thanks for sharing this. Very relatable
I'm so glad that you guys are staying close to God and keeping Him as the head of it all, so keep up the good work and may God continue to bless the both of you and your little daughter ❤.
I surely gained a family here,you two are just theee beeessst💕💕💕💕
I totally agree...family, indeed!!!!!!
This is so healthy, it is healing for the soul. Two people that trust each other so well that they are humble enough to acknowledge their wrongs. Understand it's perfectly okay to fall out as long as it is quickly noticed and efforts are made to reconcile before things get worse. This is love. All the best to your beautiful family ✝️💕
You guys continue to inspire me! My hardest time in single hood was walking this Christian life not being or feeling whole even as a leader within the church and having community and in love with Jesus I felt like I was missing something. I wanted to be married and although I wasn’t thirsty and throwing myself at men I felt incomplete in my desire to be married and was not content. Till about 4 years ago. After 14years of walking in purity I fell to sin with a toxic person and it was a repetitious thing that drowned me in shame guilt and condemnation since it was my kids father after all those years of seeking healing and stuff I fell. Thank goodness for grace and mercy and my church family that loved me so well and walked me through breaking that soul tie and healing here I stand confident although there are moments I question GOD like where he at 😂….. I’m still learning to love myself first and be completely confident in my single lice
Guys, this was a true lecture about partnership, faith and maturity. Thank you, it made me think about important stuff in my life. I am praying for you, best wishes from Brazil!
This video speaks volumes! It really shows just how good of a husband and wife you both are to each other. As a single woman, seeing your relationship encourages me to wait on God and not be impatient for a relationship. Thank you for sharing.
What you are describing is real life, you guys give us little snippets of the smiley parts of your life and we don't want to think about how life can deal you pot holes, and lemons. But thanks for sharing I know it's not easy to share the personal part of your life God bless you and your family ❤️
Guys thank y’all for being so transparent! As a person who is going through a season of learning to be transparent and trusting the guy I’m dating. I can honestly say watching this, I felt in my heart that I knew this wasn’t easy to share, but that you guys must really feel that it’s worth it to let strangers in so that they can be encouraged.
Lexi, as a woman who desires to be a wife someday I can honestly say I am so inspired by how you loved and covered your husband. I hear women talk all the time about covering their man through tough times, and I feel you did just that and did it phenomenally. Thank you also Bryan for showing us women that a man can own up and be vulnerable and still be strong. I think sometimes we women don’t think that we can have both in a man, but you have shown us that with God all things are possible.
My hardest season that I’ve been to ever been through I can’t really think of one. I think of something, then something else pops in my head. I will say something that is hard right now is just trusting my heart and the things I feel insecure about or even just embarrassed about with someone else. Thank the Lord he’s blessed me with an amazing man who shows me time and time again that he can be trusted and is the worth the hard, but that’s the hardest thing right now.
Thanks again for sharing and I will definitely be praying for you guys!
Wow this really touched me thank you so much for sharing this and yes trust takes time and I’m glad he is patient as long as their is progression with that trust, you’ll get to the point of him being your full safe space
No marriage is perfect but being with a partner who is willing to change and listens is the key, and the fact that you both love God is everything thing🙌🏾
May the good lord bless your family much love from Germany.🥰🙋🏾♀️
Thank you so much!
Good Bless you both!
I know one thing that I’ve been struggling with is being content in my singleness. I’m also afraid that once I get to that place, that’s when God will send me my husband. I’m trying to work on being patient with and faithful to God 🙏🏽
You guys are seriously relationship goals!
Thank you for choosing to be so open & vulnerable & honest about the difficulties you faced in 2020. I just know your testimony will help some other couples work through their challenges. I believe that as long as you keep God in the midst of your marriage & do your best to do things according to his will, you two will be able to handle anything that comes your way. God Bless
Thank you for sharing this, and for being so open about things. That's a wild story--we thank God for sustaining your marriage in the midst of these trials. We are also an interracial couple walking out our Christian faith in marriage. You have been a blessing to us both, and have helped us a lot in our journey. God bless.
Thank you guys for sharing this. This is a testimony to help married people, but also for si gel people.
One of the biggest issues we face as humans is to lean on our own understanding! That’s why the Word says “trust in the LORD with all your heart & lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path.” Proverbs 3:5-6. Thanks for sharing this shortcoming and how the Lord will show us ourselves, yet STILL provide for and cover His children!
Praying you all have the strength to forgive that company but also I pray they aren’t able to enjoy the money they took from you all. God bless you guys and Aza! ✝️🙏🏽☝🏽
learning to forgive even when i felt i had done nothing wrong. God showed me how to truly love
What courageous transparency! You guys are amazing, sharing your life and relationship challenges and keeping God at the centre of it all. Bravo!👏🏼🤩
This is a real conversation. I wish I had these kind of conversations with my spouse before we got to divorce. We all struggle with leaning on our own understanding especially when things are going well, I struggle with that. Thanks for sharing. I am in HR and use a tool to get understanding and improve communication based on behavioral styles, there is a free version its Extended DISC..based on what you describe i think Brian is an I and Lee is a C or S. It gives practical tips how to understand how to styles and what do in different scenarios.
Wow this is my second video I'm so glad your video popped up. Thank you for sharing.
God first is the solid foundation! You two are amazing! God is blessing and using you two soooo much so that you can share your life experience to help other. Marriage is a life journey in every way.
THANK YOU BOTH FOR SHARING. WE ALL HAVE LOTS OF GROWING TO DO. ITS IMPORTANT TO PUT GOD FIRST IN EVERYTHING YOU DO. EASIER SAID THAN DONE. WERE STILL TRYING TO GET IT RIGHT.
Absolutely beautiful conversation!! Thank you for showing how God is always on your side, even in the tough times! You are a beautiful and loving couple!💕❤️🥰🙏🏽
You guys are truly amazing! Thank you for sharing your life with us and being so transparent! May your union continue to grow in wisdom, power, & love !
God first.that’s the number one thing
I love you guy's so much! So glad for Cole Life . I'm learning a lot 😌
Thank ya'll for your transparency and vulnerability! This is real! It is so helpful...Wow...Deep!
Learning to build a good conversation around something that is near and dear is hard especially when there is a lot of fear and conflict. Avoiding and delaying that conversation is even more difficult because we have to listen actively to others. Listening to that inner voice is key so long as you don't allow those inner voices to drown you out, that's when the conversation goes null and void.
Always 👏 listen 👏 to 👏 a woman's 👏 intuition! I don't care if a contractor has worked on 100 projects. You have to watch them like a hawk and set up milestone payments and deposits. They don't work, they don't eat. I've yet to meet a contractor or tradesmen that did not cut corners. How frustrating that Brian did not understand this! A man's unchecked ego is always costly. And she's so right, nothing but prayer will check that resentment that is inevitable in a situation that is largely preventable. Hopefully you've both learned how to be better planners. Lolol
Amazing open conversation, im so happy to know both of you committed to communicating through it while knowing where God belongs simply beautiful thanks for sharing.
Thank you all for your honesty! The way you're handling the issues that come up in your marriage are the way couples Stay Together! Praise God for your courage praise God for your love!
Thank you both for sharing and being transparent. May the good Lord bless your marriage.
You guys are awesome 💕 that was a lot to deal with!
It was but girl you know I talked with you a lot during that time 😂
We all go through trails and tribulation theirs nothing we can do without God you guy's are the best you don't know how I fill to hear young people's talk and express there 💘 for God that's a blessing all by it self. Just keep the faith and be honest with 1 another I've been there done that and I tell you if He can do for me He can each and all continue 🙏 and keep the faith God Is Good He's an All Time God 😍😍
Ah it’s always a breath of fresh air watching y’all. God is so good. He will definitely bless y’all financially to come back better and stronger. God is holding you together. The devil is a liar if he thinks he can cause a rift. God bless you both, your marriage, your beautiful little girl, and other children to come.
I admire you both all the more, for what you've been through. God, being all omnipotent, goes without saying, but the love you have for Him and for each other, and built a foundation, as Bryan stated, way back at the beginning, has led to your successful navigation through that troubling season. Is it any wonder that such seasons occur, when you can survive it and be stronger, closer, more in love than before. Coming through adversity reveals wondrous blessings. So be blessed, my dear friends, be well, be safe. Thank you so much for sharing this story with us. We too, need to know this for our own seasons of trials and tribulations. May the Lord continue to bless us all.🙏🏼💞🤗💞🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing. It helps to remind to look in "your" own mirror.
Thank you guys for being transparent and open✨
Beautiful lovely couple. I love watching your video
I'm here for such conversations🙌 Thank you for sharing!
Marriage lessons; keep God first, and always practice healthy communication😊🙏
When God is part of your life everything will fall into place, glad you all found a way to work things out,God bless you both!
God Bless you !
Very useful conversation.
What great blueprint for relationships especially marriages as to how to live, love and work through life daily. Look at God....thank you for being great vessels for Him to work and present through!!!!!!
You two are a blessing
I’m listening, I promise. But ya’ll-The aesthetics! How did y’all manage to create a background space that complimented both of your skin tones? And vibes. What was intentional? It’s seems like such a cohesive space. Well balanced. Maybe I’m tripping 😭but it’s beautiful.
Always put things in God's hands and if you make a decision that goes wrong accept the mistake and let God show you the way forward. Learning from the mistake is the biggest thing to moving forward.
SO what's hard or WHAT CAN be CHALLENGING -- Being a Black woman I never really ever emphasized myself surrounding a committed relationship. When I was a little girl I always "needed" or "wanted" a boyfriend. My CAREER My CAREER My CAREER that's my meaning in life, I mean if you looked up the " Next Black Barbara Walters " it should be me next to Oprah and all the GREATS. 20 years now passed those DREAMS are distilled, and all I can think about-- is a being in a Relationship--Im dating with strong AWARENESS and it time to heal those WRETCHED 20rys of heartache. The "HEADER" made me know YALL CAN get through anything, I WANT TO MAKE A NOTE: Lexi your SO lucky to have Brian to think of you unselfishly during and before the process of having that baby , ME??? not so lucky BUT IM PRAYING FOR new beginnings and Healing for everybody-- GOOD CONTENT and this Family is LOVED.
Praise God!!!
Hi I lost my husband last year and my son it was the most difficult time for me I Had to lean on God it’s still hard for me my marriage was difficult my husband didn’t listen to me he Made all the decisions even our wedding cake and I would tell him
i would love to hear Brian talk more of His Faith with God and his wife too not many share that on this network
I happy watching this video❤️❤️❤️ I would love to see a video of how you met and what you thought of each other when y’all met. An elder told me when I got married was to always put God first he will never steer you wrong. ❤️❤️❤️
We have that it’s actually one of our biggest vlogs th-cam.com/video/czLicvDKim8/w-d-xo.html
God's blessing to the both of you in your family
Thank you so much🤎
Lexi is amazing, a lot of people would play the blame game
Love and Light to you💕
You are such a beautiful and God fearing couple!!
Thanks for transparency and truth telling please make as prank how to know how reaction is
love u 2
Love you guyss!!❤️
Love you too 💕💕
🥰🙏🏽
Should be after repenting
Is Lexi employed?
I pray that the Holy Spirit be your daily companion. Thank you for being vulnerable and truthful. I see the grace you extend to each other and it's truly beautiful! 💘
Thank you so much 🤎
Thank you for being so transparent. A lot of times “TH-cam” couples do not want to share the bad times in their relationship. However, you guys opening up allows others to take away vital information that they can apply to their lives. So again thank you for being so open and transparent. ♥️
One of the challenging situations I’ve been dealing with is with college, particularly my schools nursing program. I’ve known for years what I wanted to do in life. The struggle with my school has been ongoing. There has been nights I just stayed up and cried because I felt like everything wasn’t going the way I planned it or I just wanted to give up. I can honestly say that I felt abandoned by God during some points because of the anger and heartache that came with the situation. However during those midnight crying sessions through music I would feel His presence letting me know everything would be alright. The first time around I didn’t get in and now I’m waiting for the decision for this time around. I know God does things in His own timing and when He sees fit to open the door to the next part of my education I will be willing and ready to step through the door.
♥️ love y’all
We will definitely be praying for you thank you so much for sharing and being transparent
Amen!

I really don’t think it’s any bodies business about their personal business. If you don’t share your personal business about your secrets online, why do you think it’s your business to know others?
This is such a powerful marriage on so many levels, especially because of what ya'll shared in this post. Trust definitely has to be earned and grow, especially when it is broken or uncertain. Ya'll are troopers and blessed!
The hardest moment in my life was when my brother committed suicide, and then a week later my aunt passed away but Prayer Changes Things, and learning to forgive, guys are like a breath of fresh air, what up Neighbors , in case you forgot I'm from River Rouge Michigan.🤗❤
Sending you love and prayers
I graduated from Rouge High.
You two have more wisdom than couples twice your ages. Great conversation.
I commend Lexi for battling to silence and shut up the whispers and noise of the enemy. She did not accept the lies and heard the truth. Having a counsellor or a godly couple to be accountable to...is actually key....love it.
God took you both on a journey, from bottom of the pity to the mountain top. Been faithful through all of this,
I admire your strength and perseverance. 🙏🤲
Oh my gosh I’m living for your « SERIOUS » videos. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾❤️
Just the humility in hIs body language is amazing.... Many men struggle with their ego d admitting fault.... Thank God for walking you guys through this season
Idk if it's the hair or what but you look so cute sis!!!
This discussion sounds way too familiar. That's the exact thing that happened to me and my ex. Glad you guys were able to work through it and doing great now!!!!
Brian, you made me cry at 20:30!!!! 😭 ...and God protecting you from feeling condemned and making it new, because you are a visionary, but Lexi has the blueprints and stepping stones that make your visions, dreams come to fruition! God bless ya'll! ...so deep! Honesty is so beautiful!
Lesson in this....listen to your wife!!!! This is why I am divorced, my husband did not value my opinion or input his ego ruled the relationship. I am happy and pleased you communicated and valued each other. Prayer changes everything💟
Aww, I'm praying for you both! My parents have been married for going on 55 years. My parents would rely on their faith in Jesus as well and reminds me of the importance of recognizing there has to be room to grow together. My mom mentioned that because the word of God is established in Heaven forever, that's why their marriage lasted so long. Also with 11 kids later! Much fruit will continue to come out of your union for God's Kingdom. Stay encouraged in faith, hope and love family! God is truly able to carry you both in all things!
I don’t know you both personally, but I am proud of you both. I pray for you both often. You guys show me what’s possible through your God-honoring marriage and deep love for one another. Thank you. 😭
We appreciate that so much 🤎🤎
I appreciate this channel, although having a healthy marriage is extremely important, it’s also very important to be transparent and show that everything is not and hasn’t always been perfect. That’s the beautiful thing about marriage! You can mature together and grow together. May God continue to bless this beautiful family in Jesus name ❤️
This message is a blessing for my life
Loved so much about this. Loved Brian’s humility & that your solid marriage foundation saw you through.
Hey!!!! @ColeLife. Hug lil Aza!!! Love y'all's transparency 💕❤
11:25 "not letting resentment take root" Yes!! So proud of you Lexi. And that can only be achieved by the Holy Spirit and communication. 11:52 please note this part. The more hurdles you overcame, the stronger you two became. As you overcame one hurdle, another appeared and you overcame that too. Back to back tests. That was a marathon/sprint of trials. Overcoming those is mega victory. Produces a kingdom marriage that is now highly valuable.
Man!!! One main thought that went through my head is “and yet you guys still CONSISTENTLY posted videos throughout those hardships.” You guys are the epitome of greatness! I love it! -crystal!
You know what? Forgiveness is truly an ongoing act, it is never ending work. And all the things you guys did to overcome that season are truly things every Christian should apply to every area of their life including work, school, and ministry. Communication, therapy, forgiveness, renewing our mindsets. Well said and thank you for being transparent you guys give me hope for my future husband (wherever the heck he is 😂).
On May 30th my husband and I celebrated 22yrs of marriage. The level of communication, trust, love for each other and Love for God in this family is so strong... Yes forgiveness is also important. pray that God continue to bind you together with cords that cannot be broken....🙏🙏🙏🙏💞💞💞
That's why we need God in our life marriage communication can be difficult at times we need to remember. Got our spouse it's not the enemy
Hello Cole family and Aza you're such a beautiful Godly couple 🎊🎉🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏♥️♥️
Wow!! My husband and I have been married for 23 years and it for sure is great, but not always easy! I think you both are helping many people by sharing your journey and that is fantastic!! I look forward to following your next adventures! 😍
Awe 😍😘 Its the transparency for me. Love you guys, not many people talk, love how you both let it out which in turn I'm sure will help you both. I'm a talker as well, its what attracted myself to your channel. Love this video also..... more content like this well (storytime) anyway. 🤗😍
This is wisdom on so many levels. So thankful for you both sharing. My hubby and I send our best wishes to you both. You have helped us by sharing and we have been together 24 years. Shout out from Orlando, FL as we live out our #EdenLife
Remember in marriage 1+1=1 and my advice to you will be never go to bed with something bothered you inside, always forgive each other because tomorrow belongs to God. Glad you have over come this phases and continue to put God in centre of your marriage.the 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for sharing this with us.
I am so very sorry for what happened to you two! God is faithful to restore everything that you lost. Be strong you two. God bless you!
U have both passed this TEST with flying colours.Congratulations.U still have hurdles with your Three Children.To God Be the Glory.
Thank you so much 🤎
Thanks for sharing y’all! I know exactly how you feel Lexi!
It definitely is a process forgiving your mate!
Yes it is!
I enjoy you two as a couple. It's so important, especially in marriage, to work through the hard times while continuing to have respect for each other and also taking accountability for your actions. I don't know you but I am proud of you and how you represent marriage as part of the body of Christ.
Thank you for this real life segment.
Our marriage is almost at the 30 year anniversary mark.
Your honesty reminds us that we need to always pray and not become self sufficient.
This is ministry.
Thank you very much, to both of you.
Thanks for your vulnerability. Sharing the difficult things puts viewers into perspective that things may not always be peachy, but always returning to the heart of God will always get us through difficult processes. Remain rooted in Christ, praying for you.
