About this episode

The episode discusses how the hosts realized their marriage had become an idol, prioritizing it above God and truth.

In this episode, we speak honestly about something God began revealing to us long before our separation — our marriage had become an idol. We loved each other deeply, but without realizing it, we had placed our relationship above obedience, above truth, and ultimately above God. What we once called love, God lovingly exposed as misplaced devotion. This episode walks through the conviction, the tension, and the internal wrestling that came with realizing that even good things can become idols when they take God’s rightful place. We share how God began stripping away false definitions of love and teaching us what surrender really looks like. This conversation sets the foundation for what comes next — because once God exposed the idol, everything had to change. 🎧 Nevertheless Podcast New episodes weekly Testimony • Faith • Transformation Follow Nina: https://www.instagram.com/drslay_pressplay/ Follow Kandy: https://www.instagram.com/_indebeauty/ Follow Nevertheless: https://www.instagram.com/nevertheless_podcast/ Shop Onomaly: Onomalystore.com To support the work of Nevertheless, donate via PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=KE27QH8FDL8RS
