Description
Keeping healthy priorities are a constant battle for modern marriages. By default we tend to our priorities in life and marriage as linear, or as a list:
God
Family
Others
While this list isn't necessarily bad, we believe there's a better way.
In today's episode of the Fierce Marriage Podcast, we discuss a new way of looking at priorities that has revolutionized our marriage and transformed how we live our lives. We start the conversation by looking at two themes in Scripture:
Our finitude as humans
Our call as believers.
Join in as we chip away at this massive truth to be had about priorities in light of the gospel.
