M.H. Ep. 1 - Beginnings ft. Rod VanSolkema, Libby VanSolkema, Mark TeSlaa, and Stephanie TeSlaa

Where did Crossroad’s Marriage Ministry begin—and how did God use some of the hardest seasons in marriage to build it? In this first episode of ‘The Marriage Huddle’, Stephanie and Mark sit down with Rod and Libby to share the story behind Crossroads’ marriage ministry. Together, they talk about how God redeemed each of their marriages, how their struggle shaped His call on their lives, and what it looks like to live on mission together as teammates.

Questions for Reflection: Intended for couples or small groups to dive deeper into today’s episode.

1. In what ways has a personal struggle made you more qualified to God’s call on your life?
2. What expectations about marriage might God be calling you to surrender?
3. How do you see your marriage currently living 'on mission'? Where do you sense God inviting you to be 'on mission' together?
4. When are you most tempted to view your spouse as your enemy as opposed to your teammate? Are there specific circumstances, environments, or topics?
5. In times of emotional conflict, what do you tend to turn to instead of the Lord? How does that impact your marriage?
6. How do you and your spouse keep fun and enjoyment a regular part of your relationship?
