One Degree Marriage

A thriving marriage doesn’t happen by accident... it’s built one intentional choice at a time.

How do we stay connected when life feels busy and disconnected? What rhythms help us handle conflict with grace instead of frustration? How do we grow spiritually together? What does it look like to bring fun, intimacy, and purpose back into our marriage?

On the One Degree Marriage Podcast, Nathaniel and Xan get real about the everyday struggles and joys of marriage. With biblical wisdom and practical tools, we’ll help you take small, one-degree shifts that lead to lasting transformation in your relationship.

Grab a seat on our cozy virtual couch and join the conversation. Then take one step today toward the Christ-centered, flourishing marriage you’ve been longing for.
