Summary

It's easy to grow hardened toward each other in marriage. It's also far too easy to be distracted or shallow when it comes to growing in the ways that matter most. Jesus calls our hearts soil, so how can we mindfully cultivate the soil of our hearts in a way that allows the Gospel to bear maximum fruit in our lives? In today's episode, we discussed the Parable of the Sower and how, as married people, we can fight together to build fruit-bearing marriages. Thanks for listening!
