Is the subject of your Christian faith causing conflict in your relationship? Have your attempts to introduce your spouse to Jesus ended in resentment or hostility? When you can't share your faith with your marriage partner--how do you grow in your faith? Similarly, if your faith is causing friction in your marriage--how can you have a happy marriage? Trying to living a Christian life while married to someone who isn't saved can be frustrating and daunting. Author and former social worker Miranda J. Chivers experienced plenty of ups and downs in two marriages spanning 40 years--including dramatic faith differences.
