5 ways to have the HOLIEST MARRIAGE
01/07/2024

Bobby and Katie sit down and unpack this famous quote by St. John Chrysostom:

"Love your wife more than you love your own life.  Never be at odds, but be true.  Prefer her company  at home above being out.  Esteem and admire her publicly, and advise her patiently.  Pray together, go to church and discuss the readings and prayers.  If your marriage is like this, you perfection will rival the holiest of monks."
