What if the key to a stronger marriage isn’t another technique—but a deeper understanding of your story?

Dan and Becky Allender of the Allender Center join Lead Pastor Kris McDaniel and Care Pastor Jason Faulkner to discuss how understanding our personal and shared stories can transform the way we love, repair, and grow together in marriage. Drawing from decades of clinical wisdom, spiritual insight, and lived experience, Dan and Becky share the courage it takes to face conflict, the power of kindness in moments of rupture, and the art of repair that leads to deeper intimacy.

This episode also offers a glimpse into the heart of the upcoming Allender Center Marriage Conference, where couples will be invited to move beyond techniques and “how-to’s” and instead journey into the stories that shape their relationship. If you long for a marriage marked by care, honesty, and hope—even in the midst of complexity—this conversation will invite you to imagine what’s possible.

This year, Advent begins on Sunday, November 30. Advent is a season of waiting and preparation that marks the beginning of the Church’s liturgical year. For four weeks, Christians around the world set aside time to slow down, reflect, and prepare their hearts for the coming of Christ. In a culture that rushes toward Christmas, Advent calls us to a different posture—one of quiet expectation and holy anticipation. As you light Advent candles, participate in events like Advent Morning Prayer, and engage in our Advent Guides; we hope we will all make room for Christ—in our homes, in our hearts, and in our world.
