Summary

A marriage on mission fulfills the Great Commission in ways specific to how God designed the relationship to flourish and function. A couple "on mission" does this with unity, joy, and gospel-fueled excitement. In today's episode, we discussed how to live as a "marriage on mission" by looking at the underlying biblical mandates for us as Christians first, then as a married couple. Thanks for listening!
