I honestly think people underestimate how hard distance can be, because the only other relationship I've ever been in was a distance relationship and it ended up almost breaking me. And in distance you learn very quickly whether or not it's like a god thing, at least for us, because you have to be super intentional with communication, pursuing each other like the timing of everything.
Jake was in the middle of praying for his future spouse when Emma entered his life at an FCA camp, sparking a relationship that would thrive despite the miles between them. In this episode of 'Your Life, Your Story', host Lindsey Waggoner sits down with Jake and Emma to uncover the secrets of maintaining a long-distance relationship while keeping Christ at the center. How do you nurture a relationship when you're miles apart?
How do you keep faith strong amidst the challenges of distance? Jake and Emma dive into these questions, sharing their own experiences and strategies. They emphasize the importance of intentional communication—reading the Bible together, praying, and discussing daily highs and lows. Emma opens up about her journey towards vulnerability and how it strengthened their bond. Jake reflects on how distance can be a true test of a relationship's foundation, revealing whether it's built on solid ground.
The couple also tackles the 'comparison game', offering advice on how to focus on your own relationship without getting distracted by others. Their story is a heartfelt testament to the power of faith, communication, and commitment in overcoming the hurdles of long-distance love. Whether you're navigating a long-distance relationship yourself or seeking to keep Christ at the heart of your partnership, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement.
Tune in to hear Jake and Emma's inspiring journey and discover how they kept their love and faith strong across the miles.
