Making Marriage a Safe Place — with Brent Aucoin (Re-airing)

Marriage is one of God’s most intimate gifts — a covenant where two imperfect people are invited to reflect the love of Christ. Yet, because we’re all sinners, marriage often becomes the place where our weaknesses and failures are seen most clearly.  In this episode, Brent and Janet have an honest and hope-filled conversation about what it looks like to build a Christ-centered marriage — one that’s not a place for sin to hide, but a safe space where grace, compassion, and truth can grow. Together, they explore how couples can walk side by side, helping each other fight sin and reflect the beautiful love of Jesus along the way.  Joyful Journey is taking a hiatus on recording new episodes for the next several months. This is a season of regrouping and refocusing for us and we appreciate your patience as we do this. That means we will not be airing our quarterly recaps on each of the gospels as we anticipated, but don’t let that stop you from digging into the gospels! We’re taking this opportunity to share some previously released episodes with you. If you are a newer listener, we’re excited for you to hear some of these earlier episodes and for our long-term listeners, we are hoping that these episodes will be an encouragement to you once again! We look forward to returning in the future so stay tuned! ⁠Episode Transcript⁠ResourcesBooks⁠Gospel Treason - Brad Bigney⁠⁠The Gospel Primer - Milton Vincent ⁠⁠Gentle and Lowly - Dane Ortlund⁠⁠When Sinners Say I Do - Dave Harvey⁠⁠The Meaning of Marriage - Tim Keller⁠⁠What Did You Expect - Paul Tripp⁠⁠Redeeming Sex in Marriage - Scott Mehl⁠Videos/Sermons⁠Idols of the Heart Series - Brent Aucoin⁠⁠The Meaning of Marriage Series - Tim Keller⁠⁠What Did You Expect - Paul Tripp⁠Websites⁠Faith Bible Seminary⁠Visit the ⁠Joyful Journey website⁠ to sign up for our newsletter, view a transcript, and search previous episodes.Emails us with questions or comments [email protected]⁠Facebook⁠,⁠Instagram ⁠⁠Donate to Joyful Journey Podcast⁠Joyful Journey Podcast is a ministry of Faith Bible Seminary.
