    Courtney Ellis tells the story of how she suffered from a severe panic attack at work and had no idea why. The anxiety kept persisting, and she felt consistently overwhelmed by seemingly nothing. She discovered that her husband was also struggling with anxiety, so they worked together to find the root of the problem. They discovered how many things they had stuffed into their home and schedule. They began to purge their house, schedule and media subscriptions and discovered how much deeper their relationships with God, each other, and their families became. In this interview, Courtney will talk about how you can pare down what you own and free up your schedule. She’ll also discuss how parents can help their kids clear out the clutter.

Saving Your Marriage From Divorce

I’ve been married for 39 years. It has been a journey through highs and lows. The lows should have destroyed our marriage, “but God!” Now this message comes along and provided the clarity that make sense of why things happened and why we were capable of hurting each other in the ways we did. Even though we survived the lows with the help of God, there was the crippling unresolved hurt and pain. This message has brought the long needed healing. It was like a light bulb shown in a dark room that guided us onto a path out. This is the hope that was needed the heal our marriage. Thank you!
