Episode 160: Is mission going to ruin my marriage?
Welcome to the Go + Tell Gals Podcast! This season on the podcast, we want to answer the questions you’re already asking. This episode, we are unpacking what holding relationship and mission together looks like: Is mission going to ruin my marriage? Jess and her husband, Nick Connolly, pastor of Bright City Church, sit down and give us a behind-the-scenes look at different seasons of their marriage and how it affected their mission along the way.
Maybe you’re asking, what do we do if my spouse and I feel called to different God-given missions? Or what if my spouse doesn’t agree with or understand what I’m called to? There’s a lot to unpack in this episode and Jess and Nick use their wisdom and experience to help answer these questions.
All in all, Jess and Nick believe being in a mission-minded marriage makes life better, but often what is better begins as something difficult and takes pruning. Anytime you’re leaning into the mission of God, there will be resistance. Marriage is beautiful. Your God-given mission is beautiful. God didn’t give you both to be in competition with each other, so may we find our base in our relationships and build from there together. Amen?
We pray that you feel encouraged and blessed as you listen to this week’s episode.
He is mighty in you.
