How do we protect and strengthen our marriage when life takes an unexpected turn? How do we stay rooted in the truth that God is in control—even in seasons of suffering? On this episode of HomeWord, Jim Burns is joined by Ryan and Laura Dobson for a candid and powerful conversation. Laura opens up about her journey through cancer—how it affected her personally, impacted her marriage and parenting, and ultimately deepened her faith. Together, Ryan and Laura reflect on the power of community, the importance of offering grace, and the intentional work it takes to invest in your marriage—especially when crisis hits.
