How do you protect your marriage? Resolving to protect your marriage together requires committing to steer clear of “minor” threats and be accountable to one another. Drawing clear boundaries is necessary because you are human. But creating a hedge of protection around your marriage also has many rewards.

When my husband deployed, my world fell apart. But God pieced me — and us — back together, stronger than ever.

When your spouse is diagnosed with a chronic illness, you begin to realize that your life, your spouse’s life and your marriage will never again be the same.

‘God calls you to give yourself, to deny yourself, to be other-person oriented, and you can find life in it.’

All relationships take work, but your first responder marriage may make the Jones’ look like a coffee-fetching “internship.”

When we marry, few of us picture spending extended amounts of time away from our mate. Then reality sets in.
