Marlin and Becky Bontrager, as husband and wife, are now blessed with 10 amazing children. While Marlin spends part of his days managing his farm, he also spends much of the year traveling throughout North America with his family blessing churches and groups of people with the wonderful music of their Bontrager Family Singers. Wife Becky is a full time mother who loves investing daily in the lives of their family. Becky thrives on having everyone around the table, gardening and cooking, and going on coffee dates with her children or young mothers who need encouragement. She also loves babysitting her many grandkids. And when the family is on the road, Becky’s beautiful voice lends sweetness to the family band.  She also enjoys helping to arrange new songs for them to sing.

In this podcast, Marlin and Becky talk with Randy and Marcia Hekman about the joys of trusting God to be the Lord of their family sizes. The Hekmans’ broadcast years ago on Focus on the Family concerning their large family had a profound impact on the Bontragers openness to having additional children. Our world has been greatly blessed by their courageous obedience to God’s call.
