Our Story: how we knew we were the “one” for each other with Grant Troutt

This week, our host Madi is joined by a very special guest, her husband Grant Troutt.

They will share all of the behind-the-scene moments of newlywed life learning all of the big C’s: Conflict, Communication, and Community.

Love the story telling ♥️ Here's the time stamps for you guys: 3:30 what's your fav thing about me? 6:36 How did we meet 16:20 First date 24:33 Second date 31:16 What's your perspective of me and when did you know I was the one 43:56 Marriage advice

[@kristen899]

I can't wait to sit with my husband on the couch like that and tell our story of how God brought us together ❤🙏

[@cameronp5817]

this video has been so sweet and special to me, going through a breakup but I have really been touched by the Lord. I truly think this season is for him to work in my heart and prepare me to be the woman of God he's called me to be. Hearing about the difficulties you experienced in the talking stage, dating, and now marriage is so encouraging and beautiful. It reminds us that with God a relationship can flourish and be worked on.

[@chocha3699]

I am going through a season of singleness right now and had to let go of a guy I thought I was going to end up with. It is encouraging for me to hear you and Grants testimony and how God has remained the center in both of your lives. It’s makes me realize to not settle and to make God the center of my life and my love. Thank you for this encouraging message

[@LexiM7]

Amen! I experienced a similar situation as well earlier this year, God’s best is always worth the wait. ❤️

[@LaurenTuong]

I love this episode. Please do more episodes with him and maybe answers some q&a/ sharing your struggles and how you guys go through it together ( since nowadays on social media we often portrait relationships as a happiness life only- it's vulnerable to share hard times online). And maybe could you invite Jeanine in one of the next episodes? I'm currious to hear you guys' friendship story since you guys are super supportive of each other, and some funny interesting events when you guys were roommates 🤍♥️✨🥰

[@taylorohlmann4984]

This was such an encouragement to me! Thank you for sharing the highs and lows of your story. God is using you both. Stand firm, because the enemy will want to attack something this good!

[@AshleyBrin-ct4eu]

Such a great podcast!! It’s so evident how God speaks through you two and how blessed are we to learn from you both!?! Can’t wait to see how God continues to move in your lives and how you will continue to pour into us!🤍🤍🤍

[@RebeccaL646]

thank you for the candor! Wishing you guys the best! and looking forward to future episodes.

[@RootedAndRadiant_WithAshleyR]

This was such a sweet episode! All of it was worth it❤❤❤

[@jmk077]

53:15 when you said “he was asleep” sounded exactly like Rachel when Ross fell asleep reading the letter 😂

[@kourtneyweiss]

Love this so much! As a newlywed it's so great hearing about your first 6 months because ditto lol

[@bellabek359]

definitly a favorite episode, great job always an inspiration

[@memememe4581]

After watching this episode, I decided in the heart of my heart that if I ever get a second chance to remarry again, I would never make the same mistake I made in my first marriage. I was married to the wrong person for almost 19 years of my life and in the course of being married, I lost my identity. Madi & Grant; your marriage is forever blessed. I keep getting inspired by you two every single day of listening to your podcast. I’m a huge fan ❤❤❤

[@Solodolo18]

Thank you God for bringing me and Madi together soon amen amen amen 🙏

[@gloyogi]

This episode was beautiful. Thank you for sharing ❤

[@Islandmamamel]

I had randomly clicked on this video expecting to leave after 2 minutes, this has to be my favorite podcast episode I have EVER listened to. You gave me so much to take in and reflect on, you both are so inspiring TOGETHER, your words and conversations drew me to learn more about the Lord and His word. After listening to this I am walking away with so much valuable wisdom. Please do more episodes like this, my heart is so full! Thank you Maddie and Grant!

[@Elephant2024-wi2li]

Your wedding video was beautiful. The two of you are such a lovely couple. So love your podcast and books, Madison. You are a great role model for people of all ages. 🙏

[@KaraWilliams-z9p]

I love you, Madi! You’re so anointed and so relatable. I love how honest you are. If you ever get the chance can you speak on purity in and out of marriage?

[@JeanineAmapola]

Love yall❤❤

[@liznyokabi4639]

Madi you always make my mondays

“We pulled over and prayed for drake” I love you guys so much

[@wordsfromthekingdom_]

This was a phenomental episode! 🔥 Very encouraging 💪🏽

[@consueladcosta29]

Awesome episode! 😍 Would really love an episode on procrastination!

[@catherineanne5379]

I totally agree with moving away from family the first couple years of marriage. It was the best thing for us and we grew as a couple.

[@kaypullen6269]

keeping Christ at the very core of any relationship is EVERYTHING and the best advice i took from this pod, i wanna thank you both so much your story is so inspiring and relatable. my past relationships have been FULL of sin - now having found Jesus and fallen in love with God and His character, your videos give me hope that my life can change and evolve into something that truly honors the most high. even though it didn’t before. i pray to find peace and encouragement like this in any of my future relationships and especially friendships, bless yous and i pray for your continued strength as well ✝️💜✝️💜

[@LawissaJoyce]

Listening to you both has made me feel so hopeful 🤍😭 such a beautiful godly couple!

[@shahar26]

Godly couples don't do blinde dates sis. 😅

[@JoAnnEckfield-qi6ko]

You two are amazing! Madi you would be great as a host on a Christian talk show! You are so natural at it!

[@KintaDienguele]

Thank you sooo much for sharing your story! This has encouraged me to wait on God for the right relationships; I see how His ways are always best 🙏You both are beautiful children of God- on the outside and on the inside. ❤

[@angeladogagis]

I love that Ecclesiastes bible verse and word that came along with it! Thank you so much for sharing your story. You both are so cute and can tell that you both have a heart after God. ❤

[@CarolineWarde]

Awesome episode! Love how real and honest ya’ll are. Keep up the podcasts!!! You are so in your element Madi 🤗

[@laripopa9941]

guys!! thank you sooo much for this video! it was SO good and SO helpful. God bless you guys 🙏🤍

[@hayymommasunshine]

I love listening to y’all! Maddie and girls gone Bible (Ang&Ari) are my favorite voices to listen to. I binge listen at work on night shifts at the factory I work. Love them

[@LillianTrump]

You both are so wonderful!! It's so inspiring to see you all love each other so much through Jesus! I recently got engaged and I am SO watching this again later with my fiancé. Your all's personalities line up almost perfectly with mine and my fiancé's, lol! Keep being you and keep doing what you're doing because you both are so incredible and are doing great things!💗

[@JRich24]

This was one of my favorite podcast episodes ever

[@maliewatanabe2037]

The story at the end where Grant was sleeping just reminded me of when Jesus left his disciples to go pray and he came back to find them sleeping 😂

[@SC-ih6df]

😭😭

[@Calibeachgtl1024]

I love how you guys keep it real. The good and the challenging..you guys are funny too..😅

[@bernadettemenga1664]

Yeyyyy. Hey Grant. Hey Madi. I loved listening. Also, the story at the end😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.

[@bernadettemenga1664]

Also could you and Grant do a Q&A. I would love to watch you guys answer some questions.

[@KarenH8]

🙏🏻🤍 praying for a man like Grant.

[@shahar26]

Do you pray for a man that accepted going on a blinde date? 😅😅

[@KarenH8]

@@shahar26 I would totally accept going on a blind date that came from a mutual friend.🫶🏻

[@rds9872]

How ya doing? 😅

[@crystaldon4995]

Pray for your perfect partner. Not someone necessarily like Grant.

[@KarenH8]

@@shahar26 I would do it.

[@kressten]

Literally crying on how beautiful your story is. It has given me hope that God knows what we need and He will provide it for us when the time comes, I´m still waiting for five years now on my special person, so thank you

[@shahar26]

You can't confirm that God provided that man for her. She just went on a blinde date.

[@jasminew9324]

Can you talk more about submission and what that looks like? 💗 thank you for this podcast!

[@mikaylablackwood5286]

Oh wow, that is why we never reach self actualization huh, that verse is today's favorite for sure.

[@gerxiong18]

Omg Madi pls I need a list of the questions you asked during the first date!

[@pearlali136]

Beautiful couple, very godly , have to say I’m surprised that she went on “That show” she’s so much better than that. Congratulations Grant and Madi

[@taylorohlmann4984]

I was also surprised, but her recent podcast episode explained a lot. I encourage you to listen bc it made this episode that much more powerful. God is so evident in their story.

stop you guys are so cute!

[@sarahsmith4992]

This episode gives me so much hope! God is so good. I can't wait for a relationship similar to this. Definitely praying for this!!!

[@shahar26]

That's so stupid to pray for something similar to what they have. They went on a blinde date. That's it. You need to pray for your own relationship praying according to the bible. Not everything you see on social media comes from God.

[@sarahsmith4992]

I think you missed the entire point of my comment! Anyways, wishing you the best lol.

[@MikeCheatham-y8l]

I think it’s probably best to stay forever. Even though I don’t want that. Dating is nearly impossible now days 🙄

[@Greggyc43]

They’re married ?!? How is that even possible ?!

[@tishwish15]

34:56 lol 😂 so stupid Glad y’all can laugh it off now. Anxiety is horrible especially with social media.

Very powerful God love story 🥹❤️ super encouraging!! Thank you! Madi can you do an episode about body image, modest, and how to find good health balance in that area? How to be Kingdom quality women in this world? I feel like a lot of women struggle with that. Hello from Poland 👋🇵🇱

[@shahar26]

Going on a blande date is not a God love story 😅.
