At one point in my marriage, I had tried everything—manipulation, fixing, controlling—only to be frustrated because nothing worked. Most of my efforts were more about fixing my husband than myself, until I realized I was doing it all wrong.

In this episode, I'm sharing about my own journey of learning to stop pushing and start trusting God’s wisdom, presence, and power.

Through small acts of surrender, prayer, and learning God’s design for marriage, I discovered how the Holy Spirit quietly transforms our hearts—mine and my husband’s—and how releasing control became the doorway to a 42-year love story rebuilt by grace.

Join me today as I show you why and how to trust God for the transformation you want to see in yourself and your marriage.

Let's get started.
