Ep. 84 - The DNA of a Man and Why Christians Look to "Secular" Sources for Help

In this episode, Matt takes you behind the curtain of the DNA of a man. He shows men the importance of their discovering their God-given identity, and how crucial it is in rebuilding a marraige. He also guides the discussion toward available marriage help, and the reasons why "secular" sources of wisdom often have more Kingdom-like teachings than even the church does when it comes to marriage.

If you want a fiery marriage, you'll want to listen in.
