Summary
Are you in a spiritually mismatched marriage? Lee Strobel describes the struggles he and his wife, Leslie, experienced when he was an atheist and she was a new Christian. In part two, Leslie joins Lee on stage to offer hope and practical suggestions for living out your faith while staying committed to an unbelieving spouse. The Strobels encourage listeners to reach out for H.E.L.P.: 1) Harness the support of others; 2) Exercise restraint; 3) Live out your faith; and 4) Pray. (Part 2 of 2)
