Looking Up: How God Rebuilt the Foundation of Our Marriage
Episode description
In today’s heartfelt conversation, Kendra and Dr. Ryan Hewitt share a story they’ve never fully told before; their unexpected journey back to church, back to God, and deeper into their marriage. Sparked by an emotional Easter weekend and a powerful message about "looking up," they reflect on how reconnecting with faith shifted the foundation of their relationship. From the profound experience of being baptized together to learning how to stop forcing outcomes and start trusting God’s timing, Kendra and Dr. Ryan open up vulnerably about anger, healing, personal growth, and the power of spiritual intimacy. Whether you’re married, dating, or simply seeking a deeper connection with God, this episode offers encouragement for building a marriage that looks up before it looks around.
