Building a Spiritual Legacy in Marriage (Part One) - feat. The Whites

Matthew 19:6 (NKJV) says: So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate. Deuteronomy 6:5-7 (NKJV) says: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. Marriage is a blessed union and covenant designed by God. Keeping God first will cause the marriage to move into the right direction and blessings will flow on every side. However, marriage does not come without challenges, even with God at the center. It is the couple's responsibility to fight for the marriage by daily surrendering it to God and yielding to His will no matter how uncomfortable or difficult it may be. This marriage series was created to help couples overcome and BREAKTHROUGH in different areas of hardship within their marriage, and for them to be reminded that we are a community within the Body of Christ, who need each other's encouragement, wisdom, and support. In Part 1 of this episode, I speak with Michael & Algenia White on Building a Spiritual Legacy in Marriage. You will also hear about: how and when they met, how long they dated prior to marriage, when Mike knew it was time to get married, challenges they faced prior to their wedding day, what inspired their decision to have a debt free wedding, why Algenia decided to have her Father walk her down the aisle despite their lack of relationship with each other, what their wedding day was like, challenges they faced shortly after marriage involving careers, living together, miscarriage, etc., the reason behind their decision to move from MD to TX shortly after their 2nd child was born, how they began to see that leaving a spiritual legacy for their children was most important, and more!
