Marriage Advice We'd Give Our 20-Year-Old Selves

Marriage After God

About this episode

Marriage advice for your 20s from Aaron and Jennifer Smith. In this behind-the-scenes episode they reflect on a season of podcast interviews for The Marriage Gift, including The Dad Tired Podcast with Jerred Lopes, His & Her Money, Truth for Your Twenties, and The Christian Parenting Podcast. Those conversations sent them back to their origin story and the first roughly four years of marriage, when intimacy was nearly nonexistent and God used that suffering to refine idols, pride and selfishness out of them. They share advice for their 20-year-old selves, from Aaron addressing pornography sooner to being the spouse you're praying for instead of searching for "the one," plus building on the Rock, working and doing ministry together, and how prayer carried them when faith was fragile.
