The Gospel Is For Christians Too

Show notes

About This Episode The gospel is the good news of salvation to the world. Where we could only fail, Jesus could only succeed. It brings us near to God while we were far off and makes us whole where we were in pieces. But does the gospel only matter before we believe, or after too? In this episode, Aaron and Jennifer talk about why believers need to cling to the gospel in every area of life, including marriage. They share how preaching the gospel to each other has carried them through real struggles, and how putting Jesus in the middle of a conflict takes the focus off of me and puts it on Him.

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.
