In a world that says, “Have it your way and have it right now,” patience is not something that is cultivated or portrayed much in our society.

So then, what does having patience in marriage really look like? As a Christian wife, what are ways that you can portray patience, and how is it that those who do portray this also seem to have a sense of peace about them? Where does that come from?

Join me for a candid look at family tension, discovering how trusting God’s timing changes responses, and learn concrete ways to listen, empathize, and answer with love instead of impulse. With simple communication steps and a prayerful heart, this episode shows how patience becomes a gift you give your marriage — and yourself.

Let's get started.

In this episode, I'm talking about the tactics that the enemy has used in my own marriage —first of my husband’s sudden change of heart and later with my own discouraging thoughts. Listen and learn what spiritual warfare looks in everyday marriage and how faith, prayer, and God’s armor turned a crisis into a testimony.

You will hear concrete examples of the enemy’s tactics—doubt, condemnation, isolation, distraction—and learn the simple steps to take your thoughts captive, rebuild trust, and protect your family. This is an invitation to see the battle clearly, stand together, and let God’s truth restore hope and unity in your home.

Let's get started.
