What if the breakthrough you’ve been praying for in your marriage doesn’t begin with your husband changing… but with surrender?

In this episode of From Brokenness to Freedom, we’re having an honest conversation about something we’ve both wrestled with: wanting our husbands to grow spiritually, lead differently, pray differently, or pursue Jesus the way we thought they should.

And somewhere along the way, a good desire became control.

We found ourselves watching their walk instead of tending to our own. Pushing instead of praying. Trying to produce in them what only the Holy Spirit can produce.

But things began to shift when we got out of the way.

When Jesus became not only our Savior, but our Lord, the question changed from:

“God, when are You going to change him?”

to:

“Jesus, what are You asking of me?”

We talk about spiritual leadership, being in different places spiritually than your spouse, control, pride, forgiveness, submission, trusting God with your husband’s walk, and what it actually means to live under the Lordship of Jesus.

This isn’t about pretending marriage isn’t hard or ignoring real hurt. It’s about learning that our peace, obedience, and relationship with Jesus cannot depend on where our spouse is spiritually.

Your husband belongs to Jesus more than he belongs to you.

And maybe freedom begins when we finally trust Jesus enough to let Him be Lord over our marriage, too. 🤍
