Ep.21_The Beautiful Inconvenience of Marriage (Becky Hennesy)


Listen Later

Imagine you meet the man or woman of your dreams.  You date for several months then decide to get married. Yet on your honeymoon you quickly realize something is terribly wrong...and the thought crosses your mind: "Did I make a huge mistake!"

Host Erika Seamayer-Williamson invites Pastor Becky Hennesy into the studio to discuss the topic of marriage. Why do so many marriages struggle to get off the launch pad? Why do so many marriages (even within the Church) end in divorce?

Although she's been married for nearly 42 years now, Becky and her husband Jim have had more than their share of trials...and pain so bad that Becky admits she actually hated Jim during the first few years of their marriage. Yet, they had to keep a front to the rest of the world because they served in pastoral ministry. The double life nearly destroyed their marriage yet the power of the Holy Spirit, divine intervention, and personal soul-searching led them to rebuild their marriage on a solid and loving foundation. 

Today Jim and Becky are co-lead pastors at Trinity Church in Cedar Hill, Texas. Their marriage is now strong, healthy and happy...and both agreed years ago to let their marital struggles be an open book and serve as a cautionary tale for others.
