Summary

PII: All of us face severe challenges in this life. And we all will (if we haven’t already) experience grief. God does give the grace to receive comfort through our marriages in the times we need it most. But it isn’t automatic and it needs to be fostered intentionally. This is the second half of my interview with Penny and she shares very practical step by step instructions on how to grow in your emotional intimacy together. She also shares what sexual intimacy is like during grief and how to help yourself and your spouse in the midst of that.

later getting remarried to the same man. And then how disaster struck and how they've come through it. So this is her talking about the insights

1:14.9

she's learned and what she did practically to keep her in a place of desiring her husband,
