About this episode

Pastors Ron and Hope Carpenter discuss the challenges of maintaining a lasting marriage amidst difficulties.

Why do so many couples invest everything into their wedding day—but almost nothing into staying married? What does it really take to go the distance when life gets hard, forgiveness feels impossible, and trust has been broken? Pastors Ron and Hope tackle these real, raw questions as they unpack covenant love, boundaries, forgiveness, and what healthy marriage actually looks like in this installment of Ron + Hope: Unfiltered. If you want a marriage that lasts—not just survives—you don’t want to miss this episode. Thank you to our Partner...
