No matter how hard we try to predict the future, we can\u2019t \u2014 nor can we adjust our circumstances to avoid pain. As we ponder what\u2019s ahead, it\u2019s one thing to be aware of what\u2019s happening in the world, but it&#8217;s very draining to always worry about it. But is staying worry-free even possible? Our guests discuss ways they\u2019ve struggled with worry, plus how they\u2019re learning to trust God now while still acknowledging and being concerned by what\u2019s going on around them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Culture: When Your Relationship Faces a Storm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As an expert on marriage, Gary Thomas loves to see couples fall in love. However, with 38 years of marriage experience, he\u2019s very aware of the types of challenges couples inevitably walk through. Is there a way to prepare mentally, spiritually and emotionally for the tough times? When you\u2019re dating someone, can you know if he or she will stay committed through thick and thin? Gary offers several examples and lots of biblical truth and encouragement to prepare you for marriage\u2019s bumpy road.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/donate.focusonthefamily.com\/don-boundless-2022-10-06?refcd=1498102\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Making Your Marriage a Fortress: Strengthening Your Marriage to Withstand Life\u2019s Storms<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Inbox: A Christian Marrying a Non-Christian\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Her Christian friend is engaged to a non-Christian, and she\u2019s been invited to their wedding.
