How To Transform Your Marriage Together this year

Show notes

About This Episode All of us, on some level, desire transformation in our marriage. Whether it is a small change or a complete overhaul, we want more joy, peace, love, and purpose. The truth is we are always being transformed into something; the question is whether it is what God desires. The first step is believing that we can change, because of what God says. In this episode, Aaron and Jennifer walk through seven ways to establish the transformation you want to see in your marriage, and remind couples that powerful change takes time, effort, and a selfless, sacrificial heart.

About Aaron & Jennifer Smith Aaron and Jennifer Smith are the founders of Marriage After God and authors of Husband After God, Wife After God, and Marriage After God. Married since 2007 and raising six children in Bend, Oregon, they started Husband Revolution and Unveiled Wife to share what God was teaching them, not from a place of having it figured out, but as fellow travelers pointing couples back to Jesus.
