    Husband and Wife Partnership: Working Together to Fulfill Heaven's Reward

    Working together as a couple and being a supportive spouse is all about having a sacrificial and supportive heart; it’s not about assigning roles or taking notes on who is doing what.

In the episode, they share their husband and wife partnership journey in ministry and business, ups and downs, strategies that have enabled them to create more wins on their path, and a unique ministry experience. They also share the importance of intentional communication, sacrificial support, agreement when making decisions, and how you can operate with confidence as a couple, even in the midst of adversity.

    If you are a couple getting ready for a transition and want to take a bold leap of faith in business or ministry, this episode is for you!

This was such an amazing episode. It really spoke to me. Just this weekend I was telling my sister that I felt like I was in the matrix with corporate job. However, I felt guilty about leaving because I felt like God blessed me with that job. My sister said exactly what was said on this episode about being at a place “ for a season.” I feel like this was definitely confirmation for me. Thank you so much for allowing God to use you and for your obedience. God bless you!
