For Better or For Worse- Navigating Rocky Seasons in Marriage (w/ Stacey Rutledge & Jenni Brooker)

2022-10-19

If you’re married, you made a promise to your spouse that you would love and care for them, “…for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and health, to love and to cherish, until death do us part.” And if you’re both normal human beings, it probably didn’t take long for the “worse” part to show up. Real talk: every marriage goes through difficult, challenging, painful, and frustrating seasons. Even godly, Jesus loving, husbands and wives sometimes fight.

If you’re married, you made a promise to your spouse that you would love and care for them,

“…for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and health, to love and to cherish, until death do us part.”

And if you’re both normal human beings, it probably didn’t take long for the “worse” part to show up. Real talk: every marriage goes through difficult, challenging, painful, and frustrating seasons. Even godly, Jesus loving, husbands and wives sometimes fight.

Even the healthiest marriages go through seasons of conflict, disappointment, and disunity. Sometimes those seasons are marked by angry, explosive fighting, and sometimes those seasons are marked by quiet, lonely indifference.

So when you find yourself in a rocky season of your marriage, what do you do? How can you get help? How do you reach a resolution?
