Many couples experience separation for days, weeks, or even months because of work-related travel. If you or your husband/wife travel for a corporate job or military deployment, you will face unique challenges when it comes to staying connected emotionally (and physically), as well as maintaining spouse-honoring (and God-honoring) integrity while apart.
In today’s podcast, we cover five ways to fight for personal integrity while one of you is away for work.
Focus Verse:
A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.
Proverbs 25:28
