from Godly Conversations Podcast · host Uwem Akpan

Marriage is often sold as the reward — but what if it’s actually the refining fire?In this episode of Godly Conversations Podcast, I sit down with my pastor — not to speak as a pastor first, but as a man who has been married for 17 years. What followed was one of the most honest, grounding conversations about marriage, expectations, heartbreak, change, cheating, and growth. At one point, he said something that stopped me in my tracks: “If your marriage has not changed you, you are not doing it right.”This conversation is for:Singles thinking about marriagePeople currently datingEngaged couplesMarried couples feeling confused, stuck, or disillusionedMarriage is not a prison — but it will reveal you.🎧 Listen with an open heart.💬 JOIN THE CONVERSATIONWhat's one expectation about marriage you had that turned out differently?
