Awesome Marriage Podcast

Do you give as a couple? Have you ever argued in marriage about how much to give or whether or not to give to something? As Christ Followers and church goers a lot of us have questions about giving. Giving and the concept of giving money to the church can put strain on a marriage if you aren't on the same page. In this episode Dr. Kim and Christina talk about giving as a couple. What it can look like. Why we should do it. And what to do if you're not on the same page. SPONSORS Thank you to PrepDish for sponsoring this podcast episode!
