Connected Christian Wife | Intimacy, Date Nights, Quality Time, My Happy Marriage, Effective Communication
Do you want to connect deeper with your husband? Is he too laid-back or passive, and you feel like you NEED to do EVERYTHING? Is this affecting intimacy in your marriage? How can you connect when you feel like you’re always carrying the weight of the whole family on your shoulders?
Girl, you are in the right place! Welcome to the Connected Christian Wife podcast where I give you the strategies you need to lay down the mental load and be physically and emotionally connected with your husband, so you can have intimacy in your marriage - EVEN with kids!
Hey, I’m Jennifer. A wife, mom of two littles, and a daughter of the King. For the first three years of our marriage, my husband and I struggled to connect.
You see, my man is one of the most laid-back people I know, and I felt like if I didn’t take control in our home, things would fall apart., We don’t live in the same country as our families, so we do not have the luxury of dropping the kids at grandma’s house so we can go on dates, or even have a break.
This left me stressed, burnt out, angry and resentful. Which only made us pull further away from each other.
I finally decided to surrender and seek God’s guidance. Through the help of the Holy Spirit, I realised I was carrying too much. The pressure and weight on my shoulders was causing a strain in my marriage.
And what happened next FLOORED me! I felt emotionally safe to voice my needs. My husband stepped up, and he started to take the initiative in our family and our marriage.
This has helped make space for us to spend more quality time together - without kids, TV, or scrolling on our phones. We are back to being best friends with ALL the benefits! No more being roommates, baby!!
Friend, I want the same for you too. If you desire to have quality time with your husband, without the kids shouting “Mom. Mom. Mom.” for the hundredth time today, and you want to turn off, and not feel like you are carrying the weight of the whole family on your shoulders, this podcast is for you!
Grab your favourite drink and let’s hang out!

Do you long for your husband’s heart to be turned toward Christ? Do you want to build a Christ-centred, godly marriage that honours God even if your husband is an unbeliever or a new believer? Are you struggling to trust his leadership, because he is not yet a believer? Maybe you’re walking through the struggles of feeling misaligned in your values, or you’re unsure of how to trust your husband’s leadership because he doesn’t share your faith.
Hey sis, I’m Jennifer Fanning. A daughter of the King, a prayerful wife and mum. I’ve been where you are—praying for my husband’s faith, feeling frustrated, and wondering if things would ever change. Having the desire to build a godly marriage but not knowing how.
It wasn't until the Holy Spirit intervened and began working on my heart, that I realised God can use me (and you) to build a marriage that honours Him even if your husband is an unbeliever or a new believer.
God can transform your marriage, and He can use you to draw your husband closer to Him, because it is God’s will for every marriage to bring glory and honour to Him.In this podcast, I’ll be sharing practical, Christ-centred solutions to help you navigate the challenges of being married to an unbeliever or a new believer. You’ll learn how to build a Biblical marriage that honours God, how to pray for your husband using Scripture and how to communicate and resolve conflict in your marriage with patience, love, and wisdom, all while growing stronger in your walk with God.
If you're ready to embrace your calling as a prayerful wife, grow stronger in your faith, communicate with love and see God move in your marriage, this podcast is for you.
Grab your Bible, notebook, and pen—and let’s dive in. I’m so glad you’re here.
