Why The American Marriage Process WRECKS Marriages (And How to Fix It) | Live Free with Josh Howerton

⚠️ Mature content warning: Topics include divorce, spiritual warfare, and tragic current events—best for adult listeners.    In this week’s episode of LIVE FREE, Pastor Josh and Jana Howerton dive into what it means for marriage to be a covenant, not a contract. They unpack how God’s covenant with His people shapes the way husbands and wives commit to each other, covering forgiveness, bitterness, conflict, and cultural myths about divorce.    Later, Carlos Erazo joins to bring a biblical perspective on the Minnesota school shooting, addressing spiritual warfare, demonic oppression, and the hope we have in Jesus even in dark times. With honest stories, practical advice, and clear biblical insight, this episode will help you strengthen your relationships and live with faith and hope in every season.   👍 Like, Comment, & Subscribe for more life-changing podcasts! 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss an update!     📝 SHOW NOTES Subscribe now to receive the show notes directly in your inbox with each new episode.
