A marriage gets stronger when you invite God into it
"After more than thirty years together, we are still learning about marriage, about each other, and about God's desires for us as a couple. We've been through a lot together--big victories, devastating losses, and everything in between. But through it all we've experienced God's faithfulness. We've witnessed firsthand that His plan for marriage is good, and we're eager to share a few of the things He's taught us along the way."--Tony & Lauren Dungy
