Marriage matters... That's what our guest today will talk about. While HeatherMcAnear's parents' divorce when she was in high school was devastating to her, it sent her on a path for passion for marriages. Even at a young age, before she met her husband, she knew marriage was precious. Heather and her husband, Garrick, have 3 children and live in Oklahoma City. They have a ministry for married couples, called Marriage Matters, at Council Road Baptist Church.

Heather gives us so much wisdom today. She shares Six Pillars of Marriage that she and Garrick teach in depth with the couples they mentor. The Six Pillars are Communication, Sexual Intimacy, Conflict Resolution, Financial Planning, Relationships with In-laws, and Roles in Marriage. She talks about date night questions for couples to ask each other, such as...How can I serve you in this season of life? How has the Lord grown you through our marriage? What is your favorite memory from our early years? How do you feel most loved by me? You are going to love her story of how she met her husband and the importance of keeping marriages strong!
