What if my marriage is a little untraditional? Second marriages, unequally yoked, and a blended family.Marriage is already a journey, but what happens when you're navigating a second marriage, a blended family, or differences in faith? These challenges can feel overwhelming, but they don’t have to divide you. In this bonus episode, I sit down with Britton George for an honest conversation about what it’s like to rebuild after brokenness and follow God through an unequally yoked marriage. We talk about getting married young, healing after divorce, navigating trauma in your relationship, and learning how to show up in a marriage where you’re not equally yoked spiritually. Britton shares what it’s been like blending a family, surrendering the image of a “perfect Christian marriage,” and trusting God’s timing—even when it’s not what you expected. If you’ve ever felt like your story doesn’t fit the mold, this one’s for you.
Here's what you'll learn:
✅ What it means to be unequally yoked—and how to handle it
✅ Why your spouse might shut down—and what it really means
✅ How past wounds and experiences shape the way you show up in marriage
✅ The key to navigating emotional withdrawal and differences in communication
✅ How to trust God with the marriage you have, not just the one you imagined
