Blended family

I have a question concerning my second marriage with my husband. We have been together now for 8.5 years. I have a special needs daughter that is 29 with guardianship. It’s been a struggle with my husband and my marriage. He thinks because the Bible talks about our children should be separate. Please I disagree and I don’t know how to handle this, I have been praying about it and God put it on my spirit to ask marriage today and thanking God for your ministry it saved our marriage literally. We have been to a Philadelphia xo marriage also. Thank you so much ! Robin

Reconciled

My wife and I were newly married and things got real after our son was born…
We fought and argued and eventually divorced and I finally came to my end and gave everything to God …
I started reading the Bible to find out what God had to say about marriage and I found this podcast and your seminars on YouTube ….
We remarried and are living for God and this is the teaching I needed to hear ….
