Hosted by Fr. Britto M. Berchmans and Sandy Labouvie, this 30-minute show will attempt to help listeners fashion their marriages and romantic relationships using the best insights of marriage experts while it will lead them to build them solidly on the Rock that is Christ. The show uses wisdom from psychology, the well-tested insights of experts, real life experiences of couples and the well-considered observations of priests. There is healthy doses of humor and at all times all our discussions are firmly rooted in our faith.

Don't Take Yourself Too Seriously! On this show, we had the pleasure of interviewing Paul and Chris Minaszian who shared with us how they are able to consistently infuse humor into their marriage relationship and their parenting. They try not to take themselves too seriously, and in the process, they are able to put problems in the perspective. We also said a sad goodbye to our cohost Sandy Labouvie, who will be taking a brief hiatus from our program. We wish her a speedy return to Built on the Rock!

Reflecting on Marriage as Partnership In this show, we discuss at length some of the great insights that were offered by our guests Deacon Bob and Kathy Bulger. Our focus was on marriage as partnership, and what an amazing example these two are! Among the great insights they shared with us, one that stood out was how they incorporated the Paschal Mystery into the ups and downs of married life. Just as Christ had to die and then rise again, marriage too sometimes goes through those death moments which always end in resurrection when they stand the test of time.

Throughout their years of marriage, they have learned that by tapping into each others' strengths, and supporting each other in their experiences, they have been able to keep a healthy partnership alive in their marriage. We will unpack their insights in our April show. Thursday, March 07, 2013 | Stream | Download

Affirmation and Appreciation in Marriage Unpacking our prior show's conversation with John and Shannon O'Brien, we delve deeper into the role that affirmation and appreciation play in healthy marriages and relationships. Learning what your spouse needs is the first step in affirming them. It is critical that spouses learn each other's "Love Languages." Thursday, February 14, 2013 | Stream | Download
