Summary

Listen as we uncover God’s mission for marriage — to raise children who walk in the Lord and to reflect His love through our covenant relationships. Husbands are called to love their wives, and wives to submit to their husbands, walking in unity to bear lasting fruit. Though the enemy seeks to destroy the sanctity of marriage, godly couples stand as living proof of God’s perfect design — to be fruitful, multiply, and subdue the earth for His glory.Master marital communication: https://speak.fiercemarriage.comTake the 31-Day Pursuit Challenge: https://31daypursuit.comPray for your spouse with intention: https://40prayers.comTo learn more about becoming a Christian, visit: https://thenewsisgood.comThis ministry is entirely listener-supported.
