How to Encourage Your Spouse In Times Of Doubt & Fear
Marriage After GodAbout this episode
How do you encourage your spouse in times of doubt and fear? Aaron and Jennifer Smith open with two terrifying stories of their own, rolling their vehicle and a white-knuckle 16-hour bus ride in Africa, then teach how couples can help each other when fear takes hold, anchored on the truth that what you fear has the most power in your life. They talk through common triggers like stepping into ministry, feeling not good enough the way Moses did, and a lack of control. Then they share practical tools: knowing and speaking Scripture over your spouse, washing them with the water of the Word, stopping to pray with thanksgiving, and bearing one another's burdens with sensitivity instead of telling them to just get over it.
