Ep 224 - When I Asked for a Divorce: A Wife's Story of Redemption
In this powerful episode of the Fight for Your Marriage Podcast, we sit down with Laura to hear her side of a marriage restoration story that has already touched many lives. You may remember David, who previously shared his journey of standing for his marriage, surrendering his life to the Lord, and allowing God to radically transform his heart. In this episode, his wife, Laura, courageously opens up about what she was experiencing during that season—the pain, confusion, and circumstances that led her to ask David for a divorce. Laura shares her struggles, the walls she had built, and how God began to work in her heart when she least expected it. Through her testimony, we see how the Lord pursued both spouses individually, bringing healing, conviction, and restoration in His perfect timing. Today, their marriage has been restored, and Laura's story offers incredible hope for anyone wondering if God is still working behind the scenes—even when restoration feels impossible. This episode is a reminder that God sees both sides of the story, hears every prayer, and is faithful to redeem what feels broken beyond repair. If you are standing for your marriage or praying for a prodigal to come home, this testimony will encourage you to keep trusting God's plan.

In this powerful episode of the Fight for Your Marriage Podcast, you'll hear James share his remarkable journey of God's redemption. James was once the prodigal spouse, running from God, running from his marriage, and unaware of the prayers being lifted for him day after day by his wife. But then the roles unexpectedly reversed. His wife reached a breaking point and said she had finally had enough. She left. And suddenly, James found himself in a position he never imagined: he became the standing spouse, fighting and praying for his marriage. James openly shares the heartbreak, the humbling, and the holiness of this season. He talks about what God has been teaching him and how He is using others to speak encouragement when he is weary. Whether you are a prodigal, a stander, or someone who loves a prodigal, James' testimony will encourage you to keep praying, keep believing, and keep trusting the God who restores.
