The final sign of an adequately prepared man/woman for marriage is that there is peace in the relationship/courtship and by peace, I dont just mean that there wouldn't be misunderstandings and disagreements, there would but it won't come in between the way they feel about themselves.

Today is part 4 of our marriage series and we're wrapping things up with an incredible couple: Justin & Trisha Davis. Their story? It's real. It's raw. In 2002 after planting their first church, Justin had an affair with a staff member (who was also Trisha's best friend). They walked through four years of deep pain, grief, counseling and by God's grace… restoration. Here's the thing… not every hard season happens because of choices we make. A medical diagnosis. A failed business. A struggling child. Family drama. A pandemic. These moments can easily pull us apart or force us to stand together even closer. Justin & Trisha remind us that marriage works best when you choose to face challenges as a team instead of as enemies. We talk about the importance of honesty, vulnerability and turning towards your spouse when things get tough. This episode is full of practical wisdom and a whole lot of grace. I hope you are encouraged.

Today is part 3 of our marriage series and I had the privilege of sitting down with Nicky and Sila Lee, a well-known couple from England who developed The Marriage Course - a program that's impacted couples around the world. They've been married 49 years (yes, 49 years!) and they share the small but powerful habits that have kept their love strong: praying together, saying thank you (especially for the little things) and making time for regular date nights - even after almost 5 decades of marriage! My favorite part? Watching how they laugh together. They balance each other so well, you can just tell how much they truly enjoy one another. Their wisdom is simple, practical and so encouraging. No matter what season of marriage you are in.

They've been married 41 years (yes, you read that right!) and they share about the ups and downs they faced early on as parents, and the habits that have helped them keep growing together. My favorite part of the conversation? When they talk about how they keep the fun - and yes, even the sex - alive in their marriage!

In a very comfort-obsessed culture, the idea of sticking with it through difficult circumstances is the last thing we want to do. If we seek advice on the internet for how to deal with challenges in a marriage, far too often the advice is simply, “end it!” But if we are truly called to demonstrate covenant faithfulness to our broken world, this cannot be our default response to hardships. Scripture consistently invites us to endure the challenges we face because they give God a chance to work, and they give us a chance to grow. The same thing is true when we face difficulty in our marriages. We must remember that we are not just honoring our spouse in marriage; through our dedication to covenant faithfulness we are also honoring God. By keeping our eyes focused on the Lord, we stand a far greater chance of avoiding the “poisonous root of bitterness” (Hebrews 12:15) which can take root if we lose focus and turn our attention back to our own selfish desires. It is time for us to do the hard work which will bear the long-term fruit in our marriages of joy, peace, and love. Keep your eyes on the prize!
The pastors of Grace have witnessed many, many marriages in our spiritual family facing trials, challenges, and even collapse. From our vantage point, we have seen one common denominator appear too many times to count: selfishness. Whether it's a mentality that says, “what I want/need is most important,” or an addiction to control, or an aversion to doing the difficult work of conflict resolution because it's just too uncomfortable, a focus on self damages marriages faster than almost anything else. In Romans 12, however, Paul calls Christ-followers to take a different approach: one of self-giving love. In v.10 he says, literally, “outdo one another in showing honor.” The mental image of running a race with your spouse to outdo them in love and honor as they do the same (rather than looking for what love and honor they'll give you), is a powerful one. If we adopt this posture, we can reverse the corrosive influence of selfishness in our marriages and replace it with Christlike love which can bring healing and long-term fulfillment. Marriage is a race to the bottom.
Here comes Part 3—the final installment in the Unlock the Keys to a Better Marriage series.This episode is different from anything we've shared before.

When it comes to marriage, many Christ-followers have lost the plot. With a multi-billion-dollar wedding industry commodifying romance, a flood of TikTok influencers offering quick fixes for relationships, and dating apps promising to help people find “the one,” we have too often bought the lie that marriage should be passionate, fulfilling, fun, easy, and adventurous at all times. If they fail to live up to those standards, we begin to consider other options.
In part two of the Unlock the Keys to a Better Marriage series, I'm guiding you through my 7 Steps to Freedom—a powerful process that's helped me and countless women release resentment and reclaim peace. Not just in marriage, but in life.This journey isn't about fixing your partner. It's about healing what's happening inside of you—so you can create peace, freedom, and authenticity in every relationship you're in.If resentment has become a constant swirl in your gut… this episode will meet you right where you are.What You'll Learn:The 7 Steps to Freedom that change everythingHow releasing resentment creates space for peace and powerWhy this isn't just marriage work—it's life work–Connect with Deanna:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deannaherrin/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deanna-herrin/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedeannaherrinWebsite: http://www.deannaherrin.net
In this first episode of Unlocking the Keys to a Better Marriage, I'm giving you access to my recent workshop in a 3 part series. Because trust me, I've been where you might be now. I know what it feels like to wake up next to someone you love… and still feel disconnected, exhausted, and alone. But that wasn't the end of my story. And it doesn't have to be the end of yours, either. I'm opening up about the shifts that helped me move from feeling like roommates to rebuilding the emotional safety, connection, and yes—passion—I thought we'd lost. And why so many of us stay stuck, even when we're trying everything we know to fix it.If you've ever felt unseen, unheard, or like you're carrying the weight of your marriage on your own… Press play.
