In this episode you'll get to hear Cody and Katy Jo Carson share their story of how they chose to trust God's leading in their life (even though it didn't make sense at the time) and how it turned out to be the best thing they could have ever done. 

You'll also get to hear their very entertaining story of how God used their friends to bring them together and how they navigated the crazy beginning years of their marriage despite all the curve balls thrown their way due to the pandemic.

You definitely won't want to miss the last half of the episode where we break-out into a deep discussion about the driving force behind what really makes strong families thrive!
