Send us a text

This is one of the most powerful stories of covenant love you’ll ever hear. When her husband suffered a massive stroke and doctors said he would never walk again — and might not survive — this wife refused to accept the diagnosis. She saw the reality, but she refused to surrender to it.

In this episode, you'll hear the story of a woman who fought for her husband’s life with prayer, persistence, and sacrificial love. 

You’ll discover why modern culture misunderstands this kind of devotion — and why true, covenant marriage still carries incredible power when life hits hard.

If you’re a Christian wife fighting for connection, believing for breakthrough, or carrying more than you expected in your marriage… this episode will encourage your heart and remind you that God still moves in impossible situations.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• How one wife lived out “in sickness and in health” with courageous faith
• Why covenant love stands firm when comfort disappears
• The difference between passive faith and active, persistent faith
• How speaking life can shift the atmosphere of a home
• Why self-care is not selfish — it’s spiritual stewardship
• Practical encouragement for wives who feel like they’re carrying more than they can handle
