The Heart's Desire

Our heart's desire is more than just finding someone to love. Rather it is a yearning for a connection that is out of this world! Many marriages today are struggling to thrive, let alone survive, because many couples today are given little to no direction when it comes to building and maintaining a successful marriage. This program addresses the many stresses and pitfalls that wear at the fabric of relationships today, while at the same time providing listeners with ways to identify root issues, support your marriage through skill building ideas and through faith-infused learning.
