What happens when the man who gave us one of the greatest modern-day love songs finally finds the love he’s been singing about?

In this heartfelt episode of the Dear Future Wifey Podcast, Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter MAJOR., the voice behind the timeless anthem “Why I Love You,” opens up about the journey that led him from singleness to marriage. MAJOR. gets candid about choosing to remain a virgin until marriage, navigating dating while staying committed to his faith and convictions, and the lessons he learned about love, patience, purpose, and becoming the man capable of sustaining the relationship he prayed for. He also shares the beautiful journey to his wife and how their love story gave new meaning to so many of the lyrics he’s spent his career singing.

Now, MAJOR. is entering a new chapter—both personally and musically—with his new song, “May This Moment Never End.” It’s a sentiment every person who has finally found something worth holding onto can understand: after all the waiting, growing, praying, and becoming… sometimes you just want to stay in the moment. This conversation is about more than finding love. It’s about honoring your convictions while you wait for it, recognizing it when it arrives, and having the courage to fully embrace it when it does. Because sometimes the love worth waiting for becomes the moment you never want to end.

15 Years To This Moment (Guest: MAJOR.)

Courtney and Joshua Washington had preferences. Strong ones. And according to those preferences, they should have never ended up together. Courtney had made up her mind that she didn’t want Black children, so dating Black men wasn’t part of her plan. Joshua was equally certain about his own non-negotiable: he didn’t want to date a woman with children. Courtney had four. On paper, they were everything the other person said they didn’t want.

But sometimes God has to deliver you from your preferences before He can introduce you to His provision. In this powerful episode of "Dear Future Wifey", Courtney and Joshua unpack how God challenged their biases, dismantled their checklists, and revealed how preferences can sometimes become barriers to the very love we’ve been praying for. Their story asks a provocative question: "What if the person God has for you doesn’t look anything like the person you’ve been looking for?"

Lisa Nichols has inspired millions to believe they are worthy of more, but when love finally showed up for her, receiving it became the real work.

In this powerful episode of Dear Future Wifey, Lisa and Marcellus Hall unpack the eight-year journey that eventually led them to love. Lisa reveals how past heartbreak caused her to prejudge Marcellus for things he had never done, creating scenarios in her mind and nearly self-sabotaging the relationship before giving him the opportunity to show her who he truly was.

Marcellus shares what it took to patiently love a woman who was still learning how to receive the very love she deserved.

This conversation explores healing, vulnerability, self-sabotage, and the difficult truth that sometimes the greatest obstacle to healthy love isn’t finding the right person. It’s believing you’re safe enough to receive them.
