Healthy Self / Healthy Marriage: Why Does Physical Health Matter for Marriage? | Ep. 520

Today Dr. Kim and I are talking about how physical health impacts a marriage. It turns out we’re both passionate about pursuing good stewardship with physical health! Dr. Kim shares some of the struggles he and Nancy have had to deal with and how they worked through them, and I share how going from a mentality of body shame to one of gratitude shifted how I approach physical health. 

Episode highlights include: 

• Why we need a proper theology about our bodies 
• How physical health impacts our marriage
• How to start overcoming body shame 
• Plus This week’s anonymous listener question is about getting on the same page with your spouse about parenting 

 

We pray this episode is helpful to you and your marriage.
