    When Life Tests Your Marriage: Choosing Faith Over Fear Together | Dr. David Martin

    What happens to a marriage when life delivers the kind of news that changes everything? In this powerful episode of The Stronger Deeper Marriage Show, Lucille Reddic and co-host Pata Hall sit down with professional speaker, author, and Doctor of Theology Dr. David Martin for an honest conversation about marriage, faith, growth, and standing together when life gets hard. David shares lessons from nine years of marriage to his wife, Precious—including how two people who are complete opposites learned to stop trying to change one another and instead recognize how their differences could make them stronger. But their faith and commitment were tested in an unimaginable way when Precious was diagnosed with leukemia. David opens up about the fear and uncertainty he experienced, the strength he witnessed in his wife, and what it meant to step up for his family while remaining by Precious's side. He also shares how their faith, church community, family, and godly counsel helped carry them through one of the most difficult seasons of their lives. In this conversation, you'll hear why: Personal growth is essential to a healthy marriageYour spouse doesn't have to do things your way for the marriage to workCouples must intentionally protect time for one anotherFaith doesn't mean you'll never experience fearThe right support system can make a tremendous difference during difficult seasonsRemembering what you've already survived together can give you faith for what comes nextDavid's message is simple but powerful: Hard seasons will come, but you don't have to let them destroy your marriage. Sometimes the very season that tests your marriage can reveal just how strong your partnership has become.

    When the Marriage Ends but the Family Doesn’t | Earnest James

In this honest and deeply hopeful episode of The Stronger Deeper Marriage Show, Lucille Reddic and co-host Pata Hall welcome TEDx speaker, author, podcaster, and mentor Earnest James for a powerful conversation about healing after divorce and preserving the relationships that still matter.
