Fight For Your Marriage Podcast

Ep 221 - When the Prodigal Becomes the Stander: James' Story


Listen Later

In this powerful episode of the Fight for Your Marriage Podcast, you'll hear James share his remarkable journey of God's redemption. James was once the prodigal spouse, running from God, running from his marriage, and unaware of the prayers being lifted for him day after day by his wife.

But then the roles unexpectedly reversed. His wife reached a breaking point and said she had finally had enough. She left. And suddenly, James found himself in a position he never imagined: he became the standing spouse, fighting and praying for his marriage.

James openly shares the heartbreak, the humbling, and the holiness of this season. He talks about what God has been teaching him and how He is using others to speak encouragement when he is weary.

Whether you are a prodigal, a stander, or someone who loves a prodigal, James' testimony will encourage you to keep praying, keep believing, and keep trusting the God who restores.
