How to Stay Married, featuring Gary Thomas

All marriages go through hard seasons. Whether it’s running after little kids, struggling to make ends meet financially, or dealing with something as serious as infidelity—marriage is hard work. But that doesn’t mean we should give up on our marriages even when things get difficult.
