Love and Cherish, In Sickness & Health. Conversation on Marriage with Dr. Paul and Johanna Moses

For better or worse, richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish. Marriage is one of God's greatest gifts—but it's also one of our greatest opportunities for growth.In this special episode of Medicine Motherhood Missions, Johanna is joined by her husband, Dr. Paul Moses, for an honest conversation about marriage, biblical roles, leadership, partnership, and what it means to build a life centered on Christ.Together, they reflect on their own journey—from balancing careers in medicine, academia, and nonprofit work to raising a daughter, navigating unexpected challenges, and learning that a healthy marriage isn't built on perfection, but on humility, grace, and serving one another.Whether you're single, dating, engaged, newly married, or have celebrated decades together, this episode offers encouragement for anyone desiring stronger relationships rooted in faith and purpose.In this episode, we discuss:• How our understanding of marriage has changed over the years• What biblical leadership and submission really mean—and what they don't?• Why healthy marriages are built on mutual respect and sacrificial love• Supporting each other's individual callings without competing• Balancing career, ministry, parenthood, and marriage• Communication habits that strengthen relationships• Navigating conflict with grace instead of pride• The importance of forgiveness and choosing each other every day• What we hope our daughter learns by watching our marriage• Practical advice for couples in every season of lifeMarriage isn't about keeping score.It's about choosing love when it's difficult, extending grace when it's undeserved, and remembering that your spouse isn't your opponent—they're your teammate.Our prayer is that this conversation encourages you to pursue a marriage marked by faith, humility, and purpose, while reminding you that God continues to shape us through every season of life together.Resources Mentioned• Learn more about The Ephraim Foundation International (EFI) and our mission to empower children and families in Sri Lanka.• Follow Medicine Motherhood Missions for more conversations at the intersection of faith, medicine, family, and purpose.Connect with Johanna MosesIf today's episode encouraged you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a friend or spouse.
