In this raw and relatable debut episode, Ricardo and Christian share what nearly 20 years of marriage has taught them—especially when you're building a life across cultures. From a Haitian upbringing to a Chicago childhood, the Volcys unpack how their backgrounds shape how they love, lead, and live.
They're not coming as experts—but as a couple committed to showing up, learning together, and letting ministry and family life flow as one.
Key Takeaways:
- Cross-cultural foundations deeply shape marriage dynamics
- Marriage is a lifelong, grace-filled process
- Ministry and family should flow together
- Regular date nights matter
- You don’t need to have it all figured out to show up with love
