In 1 Corinthians, Paul says, “Act like men, be strong.” But what does manhood look like?In this episode, Preston explores some of his earliest views of masculinity as a kid and what it meant to “be a man.” The development of our identity is shaped by both parents in unique ways, so the Perrys talk about the dynamics of being nurtured – or not – by a mother and a father. They also discuss the modeling of emotional maturity, the idea of attachment theory, healthy relationships with other men, and opportunities for discipleship.

Let’s Talk Fasting and Prayer
It’s been a minute since the Perrys dedicated an episode to the topic of prayer, and they realize they pray differently today than they did back then. Just as sanctification changes who you are, it also changes your prayer life, so what do their prayers look like now?Jackie and Preston also take a look at several examples of prayer in the Bible. Scripture shows us how we can approach God when we think He is disciplining us or when we doubt He is for us. Prayer grounds us as Christians, reminding us that we can’t lean on our own understanding. Through both prayer and fasting, God wants us to quiet our souls so we become more dependent on Him. You can also go back and watch the Perrys’ conversation on prayer from 2022: Prayer: The Discipline We All Suck AtScripture references:John 15:2Romans 8:312 Corinthians 1:92 Kings 19:141 Samuel 2Acts 4:23-29Daniel 3:17-18Luke 22:42-43Isaiah 58:5-8 This Episode of With The Perrys is Sponsored By:https://weekendtoremember.com — Get $100 off when you use code PERRY at checkout!https://www.covenanteyes.com — Get Victory by Covenant Eyes FREE for 30 days with promo code PERRYS

Best of WTP: How To Fight For Your Marriage
While the podcast is on a break until summer, we're revisiting some of the Perrys’ most popular episodes. If marriage feels difficult, it’s not because you and your spouse are incompatible. It’s because you’re married. On today’s episode, Jackie and Preston are joined by mentors and friends CD and Melody Fabien for a conversation about fighting for intimacy. They talk about recognizing dysfunctional rhythms, finding opportunities to connect, not building cases against your spouse, healthy confrontation, and utilizing the greatest tool God has given us to find oneness in marriage: communication.
