The enemy’s attack on marriage comes from every angle we can imagine—if you and your spouse are not firmly planted in God’s word, His roles, and His wisdom you’re putting your family in a vulnerable state. In this episode, Dale and Veronica answer three questions regarding the cancer of pornography, issues in parenting, and the sin of friendships turning into flirtationships.
In addition to our teaching time, we usually answer one-two critical questions from our listening audience. If we had a Q&A in this episode you can view those questions at the bottom of this page and hear our responses at the closing of this episode.
