ReStory Podcast

When ministry becomes part of nearly every conversation, even the most important relationship can start to feel like another place to work. Chris and Beth share honestly about learning to keep ministry from spilling into their marriage, friendships, family life, and even those quiet moments when they simply want to be Chris and Beth together. They talk about “pillow talk,” the blurred lines that can leave couples exhausted and disconnected, and the importance of creating language and boundaries that protect space for life beyond ministry. After years of navigating these challenges themselves, they offer a simple but meaningful invitation: find your own version of “I’m still in mountain mode” and learn to recognize when protecting your marriage means pressing pause.
