We’re back in counseling, and it feels like a new chapter. There’s a lingering issue we’ve been navigating, one that has kept us from seeing eye to eye. What we cherish most about this season of therapy is the growth we’ve experienced as individuals. We’ve learned to disagree with love, to listen deeply to one another’s feelings, and to unite in pursuit of our shared goals. It’s a journey of understanding, and we’re committed to walking it together.

In today's heartfelt installment, I sit down with my husband of 14 years to reflect on his vibrant childhood and the choices he made in his younger years that led him away from his relationship with God.

Over the next few years, he wrestles with issues of identity, belonging, and the challenges of receiving love and dealing with...

When it comes to inquiring about the state of a married couple's relationship, it's wise to tread lightly, for they often tend to emphasize the challenges. Marriage, without a doubt, is a profound blessing and a precious gift, albeit one that demands effort.
