    Is The Perfect Marriage Pure Fiction?
    Jul 15 2024

    Welcome to the Marriage Talk Podcast - Ep 183 - Is The Perfect Marriage Pure Fiction?

    Is there such a thing as the perfect marriage?

    The spouse God gave us is all we will ever need in our marriage. Satan will try to get you to believe that

    there is someone “better” out there, but don’t be fooled, we’re all fallen creatures that have scars and pasts and baggage. When you grasp the idea that your spouse, given to you by God, is all you ever need, you start looking at that person in an entirely different light.

    Looking for the good and not the bad; the helpful not the hurtful, and your marriage grows strong.
