The Family Business with The Alessis: A Christian Parenting and Marriage Podcast

About this episode

Should men and women try to break free from traditional roles in their marriage? And  who decides what's right for each gender? 

The conversation around traditional and non-traditional gender roles burst into a firestorm in 2024, sparked by a commencement speech by a football player,  Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker. 

Chris and Richelle Alessi analyze this debate by sharing their personal journey of blending family, faith, and work. They dive deep into the importance of aligning priorities, maintaining unity in marriage, and respecting each partner's strengths and contributions. Discussing everything from Harrison Butker's  comments on gender roles to their own non-traditional approach, they emphasize the importance of choice and shared decision-making within the family unit.


They discuss the power of intentionality, the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and the centrality of Christ in navigating the challenges of family life. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that encourages mutual respect, shared responsibilities, and an appreciation for each other's unique contributions in the sacred journey of marriage and family.

Don't miss their insights on fostering unity, effective communication, and supporting each other's true desires.
