Conflict Resolution in Marriage

In Genesis 2:24, the bible explains that, as one flesh, married couples should leave their family of origin and cleave to each other. But, practically speaking, what does that mean? Join Greg & Erin as they sit down with Scott Kedersha & Gabrielle McCullough of the More than Roommates podcast to talk about how to leave and cleave. Later, we sit down with a newly engaged couple to discuss how they can prepare for marriage. Then, we answer a question from a listener who wants to know how she can improve a damaged relationship with her mother-in-law.
