"When it comes to supporting families affected by disability, how often do we start by investing in marriages?" Well, today, we are going to talk to authors, Todd and Kristin Evans, from disabilityparenting.com about why investing in the marriages of couples who are parenting children with disabilities matters for everyone. Find out what churches should know, how couples can build a marriage that thrives, even when life feels hard, and why knowing how many positive or negative interactions you have with your spouse might be more important than you realize. This is good stuff for everyone, so listen and share!

A quick note on disability terms:
Before you listen I wanted to talk to you about something important about our podcast, and that is how we will be referring to disability during our discussions. We want you to know that at Wonderful Works Ministry, we know that words matter. We will strive to use preferred language regarding disability. But we also understand that preferred terms change over time and also can be subjective and vary from person to person, even among those with a shared diagnosis. With this in mind, we ask that you understand that we, here at Wonderful Works, and our guests may use a variety of terms on this show and in our resources. Please know that we will always approach language with inclusion, dignity and respect, and we hope you will too. Thank for listening!
One more quick note:
