Solid Steps Radio

Week 2!!! “Our first year of marriage was good for Brad , but not for Marilyn.“ -Brad Rhoads, co-founder of Grace Marriage. If you ignore your houseplant what will happen? If you don’t feed and care for the family pet, what will happen? What about your marriage? Your spouse? On this weeks show, Kurt and Chad welcome Pastor Brad Rhoads and licensed counselor Nathan Thompson to discuss Brad’s ministry to churches (Grace Marriage https://gracemarriage.com ) to talk about grace in marriage on week 2 of a 2 show series on marriage. The majority of energy and focus on marriage ministries is either on pre-marital (before you get married) or crisis marriage (when things are headed in the wrong direction). There is a massive gap in the church these days as it relates to ministering to marriages to keep them healthy. Brad shares his testimony of how the first year of marriage set the tone for the birth of the ministry. He and his wife Marilyn realized they were in a performance based marriage instead of a grace based marriage. The Bible says we are saved by grace through faith but what about your marriage? Do you give your wife the same grace that you’ve received?
