I'm Matt Tully, and today we have something special lined up for you,

0:10.0

a compilation episode featuring some of the best moments from past interviews on the topic of marriage.

0:16.0

Over the years, we've had the privilege of speaking with many insightful authors

0:20.0

who have shared

0:21.1

their wisdom on building strong, Christ-centered marriages that honor the Lord and reflect

0:26.3
