#TheLoveHour

[@beingperfected1]

TOPIC IDEA: I'd love to hear how you all connect and grow spiritually. Do you study and/or pray together? Keep it completely separate and trust/hope? Etc.

[@everythingalyb]

Ooooo this is such a good idea!!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@DeliseDanielle]

This podcast intimidated me at first, being as though I am single. Watching it weekly for the past 3 months has been quite beneficial. I feel like I am better equipped to communicate my thoughts and feelings so THANK YOU!

[@bedwards02]

I LOVE YOUR PODCAST SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!! Melissa, you are gifted and this is your purpose. DO NOT BE AFRAID TO WALK IN IT!! There are too many of us that need what God has placed in you! #78 #Ineedanewbra

[@shunterriamcgill4479]

This is the best podcast ever. 78

[@rickireign]

Truth!!!

[@ReneeBoss08]

Please do a podcast on the things I learned in church that ended up being untrue!

[@SlimmStudd]

RENEE ROSS and I ooop

[@dtayism]

Mellissa you are so classy in her responses. Well thought out and true to herself and Kev

[@amandawilson108]

I love this podcast. Having both male and female perspectives is extremely hopeful!! And the transparency makes this so relatable.

[@msmisunderstood4348]

78 and I'm not married but these topics still resonate with me and please don't ever stop

[@Drm386]

Rotflmao Kevin loves making Melissa uncomfortable 🤣🤣🤣

[@AMJL082]

I'm one of the high-desire wives out there. I totally feel Kev on his accelerators. Ain't no non-sexual accelerators in here!!!! Not even the kids. We got a lock on the bedroom door!. He wanna go at 2pm on a Sunday afternoon, LET'S GO!!!!!

[@midnite4ever]

Ok, I’m ashamed it took listening to this on KevOnStage’s page to find out THIS page existed! I’m up on game now! Oh, and 78!

[@tierab2597]

I totally empathize with the church girl mentality. Now I didn’t wait until marriage but I do think the brainwashing has hindered me when I got to marriage and at 30 I still struggle with it smh. We love y’all btw, saw yall in Charlotte a few years back ❤️ 78

[@justmy2cents208]

Kevvvvvvviiin lol "turn lil kev into BIG KEV" hilarious

[@emiliealcindor5383]

So funny @kevonstage said "lovehour" for ThirdLove the way they said "r&r" on righteous and ratchet for the sponsors! It works lol

[@SlimmStudd]

MakeUp Together I came back to find out when he started that! “I laahk it”

[@BlackADHDcoach]

ReWatching THIS WAS GOOODDDDD

[@eshortsax]

We (wife and I) were so confused that I didn’t see this on kevonstage or kevonstagestudios...didn’t think to look here for the lovehour episode :) 78

[@UniqueAdri]

The intro to the Love hour videos always changes my mood! I am so stressed from college but when i hear it I just feel so peaceful and happy! I love you guys! 💕78💕

[@JazzyJsworld]

You guys should do a love hour cruise!!!

[@simandzamela1346]

This is where I'm listening to the #LoveHourPodcast from now on. Melissa you need to shout out your channel more Sis💕 so imma be supporting from here now

[@sarahweatherill9061]

Thank you both so much for sharing your thoughts on the topics you discuss every week! My boyfriend got me hooked on the Love Hour, we send it to each other to watch every week! 78 ☺️

[@TheMassagequeen001]

I look forward to this podcast every week! Thank you 78 million times!

[@JoshuaGipson]

I see what you did there... I like it

[@J3LAIZE]

78. These episodes are always equal parts educational and entertaining. Incredible balance! 🙌🏾 Keep it up !! I really love what you guys are offering to us as viewers/listeners!

[@nadegemanigat5211]

78! I have been watching this podcast for the past couple of months and I am inspired! I am a single lady and use the podcast for inspiration and tips for when I do get married. Thank you for always being honest , creative, and entertaining.

[@ramonajones3963]

I feel like Mrskevonstage is me in this podcast and I thank you for speaking because now I have courage and an outline to use for my opportunity to speak up. Thank you and thank God!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾💪🏾🧡🧡

[@tashmoore3825]

I'm grateful for this & I'm processing being overwhelmed with anger at so many influences that negatively impacted my mind & heart towards my partner & sex. I'm focusing on the fact that this purity complex has kept me from a lot of pain, but being aware of the source of these brakes as well as other details that I can only share in private, is low-key infuriating. I'm actively forgiving the people who harmed me & I'm reminded that righteous anger can go hand in hand with healing & motivation to keep striding towards overcoming the guilt & shame & manipulation & deception. Every time I learn something helpful, I remember so many women I trusted telling me I couldn't trust myself or my partner due to their own experiences. That has haunted what was supposed to be a beautiful event. Then, I remember that their entry into sexuality was grounded in trauma. So, they repeated what they were taught. I keep finding new anger. I have to take a breather.

[@tashmoore3825]

Oh my gosh! It was overwhelming to reach satisfaction with him. He got me there but (& I've already shared this with him) it was so intense I didn't know how to continue. I know that aggravated him & I wish we'd had the understanding of each other that we have now because we could've talked about it & we could've reassured each other. I shared my misconceptions & irrational fears with him much later & he definitely became kinder & I imagine he felt like he'd done something wrong for a long time because that was the response available to me at the time. We don't have to keep apologizing for everything. We can literally do it better.

[@tashmoore3825]

To be fair, there are things we both mishandled but the part where walls went back up everywhere contributed to anger, sadness, & mistreating one another in ways we have begun to overcome. I'm feeling better after I've processed some more but I'm receiving grace to be honest with myself that my understanding is still very much a work in progress & so is his.

[@tashmoore3825]

Helping me feel safe & cared for in general helps me feel safer about sex. Humor helps me to relax as long as it's not directed at insulting me & I have worked on the same & will probably need it pointed out when I do make mean comments as they are a fear response. Lack of safety & affection are hard brakes. From what I've observed over the years, we both have attention deficits & sometimes spread ourselves too thin to the point where there's hardly any attention or consideration left for one another & that's something I don't want to repeat with our family. Example: I could become so involved with the baby that I ignore him. And then justify it instead of correcting course. That's an easy way to lose focus. Work, friends, etc. Carving out (schedule) time helps me stay excited. Physical answer is easy, he's already a 10 body wise for me. Body hair, whoo hoo.

[@jasminecarr2982]

My husband and I listen to your podcast!! It’s been so helpful💜 thank you! 78!!!!!

[@ericalindsey5561]

I was waiting for your show on Thursday on your husband's page and was so disappointed until I saw it was posted on Friday on his page and now I'm watching it on your page b/c you mentioned it on his page and now I see it was posted on Thursday on your page! Now I know! Keep these coming! I look forward to these videos every week! You guys be dropping knowledge like none other! Thank you for stepping out and being obedient! This is changing lives and current/future marriages with the wisdom you are dropping! #78

[@lh671]

I can understand what y’all were saying about the church teaching about sex being wrong/bad. There’s so much neg talk from the Saints about anything related it makes you suppress your desires to the point where even flirting feels wrong. As a single I worry about this issue when I get married. Thanks for being transparent!!

[@ChelsaSMoore]

Same here sis! That's why I love this podcast! This conversation is important for singles as well. For those of us who are saving ourselves for marriage, we don't need to go off exploring or anything but we do need to prepare your hearts and minds. Amen saints! LOL! jk But seriously, I think we should explore what intimacy looks like beyond the physical and unpack our beliefs about sex. Because many of us were taught that it's sin before marriage and that's it! As Melissa stated, sex is not just intercourse, it's our psychological beliefs and social constructs that drives us to desire sex! This makes so much sense! #Unlearn

[@lh671]

Yeah exactly, if we aren’t allowed to acknowledge these things until we’re married it’s too late. There’s no magic switch that undoes everything we’ve been taught to feel about our sexuality.

[@KissItOH]

78!! Melissa's makeup looks amazing (as always)!!

[@ItsJustDiggs]

!!!78!!! I have been on the fence and to the website 100 times since the first time they sponsored you guys! I just hate shopping online for fear that I'd have to return or exchange ANYTHING!

[@Gina8Alvarado]

Naynay and Nono omg I spit my drink out at work!! Y'all are gonna get me fired! 😂

[@izmane]

Great topic. I really enjoyed listening to it. Also the focus is more on women getting pregnant and being pure.

[@nicolemarsula3456]

This was spot on with how men and women differ! Loved it! 78!

[@ciarab.3409]

78!!!! I love you guys, keep continuing to put the Lord 1st in your relationship and keep shining a light on healthy African American marriage!!!

[@mamamie87]

78!!!! I love your podcast, you guys have taught me so much about marriage and bring laughter and light into my life!

[@tawannas3802]

The fact that I've had bras chilling in my cart on Third Love waiting and you talked about them now is a sign I need to go ahead and get them. 78💜

[@Akosiadu]

78 !! This is my first the love hour and yall are an amazing couple...the communication is impeccable

[@drawmuhfree]

78!! And now I am creeping through the previous videos on this channel because I SOMEHOW didn’t realize this channel existed

[@raneekafoster2720]

78! Love your podcast, by the way! I have gotten my boyfriend into listening as well, and we are having such great conversations that will aid when we decide to get married. Thank both of your for all you do, and your voice! It's truly necessary to hear, especially from Christians. Be Blessed!

[@GlowWithMo]

78!! I just love y'all!! It's so helpful to me in this season!

[@anaisdunlap9981]

78 I totally feel the same way as Melissa Saw y’all in San Diego... loved the whole show... thank you for being honest and taking your time to speak on things every day friends won’t even speak on...

[@KarlyneRobinson]

I love y’all! Melissa, I love your open mindedness and venture for knowledge and truth! So refreshing. And listening to righteous & ratchet, I can see the effects of that on your hubby! 78

[@MrsD1128]

Listen! These podcasts be so on point and HILARIOUS! & I wish my husband I could go to the conference ='( We already booked Jamaica for those dates, but we gone catch y'all at the 2nd annual in the name of Jesus! okayyyy 78

[@anapaixao4044]

This conversation was great, it's great that you guys can talk like this, this is so essential in a relationship!!!

[@rikitawimberly775]

All 3 of Kev's top accelerators are the exact same thing 🤣🤣🤣

[@Bookboss]

Rewatching this and even better

[@kiwright]

78!!! Love ya'll so much. Appreciate the transparency behind your marriage.

[@FayvaD]

78!! I love this podcast and the way you love each other!!

[@vivianwells8215]

Yeah I can make a comment! You guys are cute together. Melissa, your laugh and smile is awesome such a pretty lady. Love the podcast. Keep em coming🙂 our marriages need all the encouragement we can get!

[@MamaShawnyD]

So 10 years into my marriage I discovered "Intimate Issues: Twenty-One Questions Christian Women Ask About Sex" by Linda Dillow and it opened my eyes about the effects of the way the church addressed the subject of sex and helped me break out of the "sex is bad" mindset. It's been 17 years since I read it, so I don't remember all of the content to say how good a reference it is, however, at the time, I tried to get a group of women from church to use the book as a married women's bible study, and once they got the book and reviewed it, nobody wanted to openly discuss it.

[@cymonet2821]

78 Love this topic! My husband and I love the fact that you guys talk about real life things. We have only been married for a year and a half (and just had a baby) and it’s nice to know that there are other Christians out there who do not sugar coat life and marriage.

[@nyrew06]

@melissa I have an idea about the concerns you have with 2 part episodes: prerecord them... Do an extended episode and then release like a to be continued like on TV.

[@Drm386]

Sleepy Kevin has no filter!!! OMG!!! 😂😂😂😂

[@shayshaybsn2444]

78! These past couple episodes have been so informative! Thanks for the bomb book selections, Melissa. ❤️

[@tierramonique]

78.. My insides are so sore from laughing so hard. And my brain is on fire from the amount of information I just received on this topic. 😄 You both are the BEST Marriage Champions on social media. I haven't met my guy YET (I believe it will happen) to have the second chance at marriage, but I get so much information to store up to take into my future marriage. I've learned so much on what I should have done in my previous marriage. Thank you guys for being so transparent and helping people start having much needed conversations to keep love, respect and communication at the forefront of marriage. Can't wait for the Love Hour tour to come to VA this Summer. 💚💚💚🔥🔥🔥😄

[@MrsToyiaboo]

Lisssss!!!!! We love yall!

[@SideNote7]

78! You all are the best!

[@JNikki2001]
