Love God and we love

Speaker 1 (00:20):

Marriage, and we love to be honest about it all.

Speaker 2 (00:22):

Marriage is not always a walk in the park, but we do believe it has a powerful purpose.

Speaker 1 (00:26):

So our goal here is to open up the conversation to talk about our faith and our marriage,

Speaker 2 (00:30):

Especially in light of the gospel.

Speaker 1 (00:32):

We certainly don't have all the answers, but if you stick around, we may just make you laugh.

Speaker 2 (00:36):

But our hope is to encourage you to chase boldly after God's purpose for your life together.
