Staying Married Through the Storms of Life - Jeff & Sarah Walton
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 เม.ย. 2022
- Jeff and Sarah Walton have faced a series of crises that have severely impacted their marriage and family. Their firstborn son developed a mysterious neurological disorder that has resulted in dangerous personality shifts. Sarah has struggled with a degenerative injury to her ankle, leaving her immobile at times. Sarah and the kids had a myriad of aches and pains that were eventually diagnosed as Lyme disease. And Jeff’s demanding 24/7 job was creating too much stress and feelings of abandonment for Sarah. When Jeff quit the job for his family’s sake, they lost half of their income. Since then he’s struggled with on/off unemployment, which has added to their financial stress. The Waltons compare their journey to the Old Testament book of Job, outlining key passages about staying faithful to God despite unexplained suffering. They also encourage couples to turn their woes over to God, rather than blame each other. To find hope even in grieving, knowing that God always cares. And the importance of waiting upon the Lord.

"Building a wall is emotional, building bridges is spiritual."
So powerful 🙏🏽💕
Wonderful message! Thank you for sharing your testimony of relying on and turning to Christ through the storms of marriage. Takeaways, stop relying on our spouse for comfort and Christ walks with us in our individual suffering and trials so He is the one that can relate to and heal us. Loved watching this and wish you two and your family the best moving forward in Christ. 💕
Thank you so much for listening and for your encouragement!

Life can be so hard, but letting the Lord intervene is the best decision; thanks so much for sharing
Wow I'd love this book for my adult children wonderful couple ..
What a great message from both Sarah and Jeff. I've bought the book and let me tell you, it's so encouraging and transparent. I'm learning so much. Love from the UK
Thank you for being so open and honest in sharing your story. It was refreshing.
Storms of life are just there, we live in a fallen world. Building that house on the rock is imperative. Understanding comes by living out those Words. "Faith Days", patience- long suffering, self control- perseverance" all of these fruits are developed in these testing storms of life. Prayer, Pressing on to know the God of the Word by seeking Him in His Word. Learning the ins and outs of our partners nature and how to best pull together. That's what Love is all about.
Thanks for sharing real life marriages. 👍🤔😐
Wow, their story really encouraged me.. I am very grateful for this
Great segment! You have a powerful story. I had no clue. Wishing you many blessings in the days & years ahead!
Helpful in understanding my own marriage...we don't communicate well....especially since our daughter died 18yrs ago...we are so different in our belief in tbe Lord.....pray daily. Thank you 😊
Thank you focus on the family for this ❤
I love listening too everything about marriage and love this channel
I love to listen to both of you,only through Christ in us and working trough us it is possible to have victory through our difficult times
This is a great couple sticking together through thick and thin…. That’s how couples should be
Thank You Jim for sharing the tough balance of work and family
Could see and hear and feel Jeff sadness of his past decisions
She and I are both self-employed
Five hours apart
At this point, for last several years ... the road does not go both ways, the phone calls don't go both ways, the texting does not go both ways
She says I need to fix my "dysfunctions " or we need to divorce
At this point, honestly ... I have done most of the traveling since we met 9 years ago
Not sure how it will end
Told her I didn't want a divorce
When she came up to my place to meet with the pastor and his wife along with me
She never even came to my place
She went to stay with an old girlfriend and co worker from a previous job she held in my area😢😢😢
Love this so much! Just bought your book! Can't wait to be encouraged for the tough times that we all know come through the years. 😊
Just bought the book, this couple really resonated with me as a man with a stressful job
Very valuable!!! God’s help
Definately relate on their story😔 Thank you for sharing and definately will get the book❤️😘🙏

Please Lord aid my marriage. Continue to help us communicate but help my husband feel right again in his mind.
This young couple seems so sad and so serious. I hope they are getting help from older members of their family. I appreciate that FOF has a lot of couples on talking about their relationships but none of them talk about how their 'family' goes beyond the nuclear family. I've never heard them talk about help from parents, adult siblings, cousins, grandparents, etc. It's as if y'all think that 'family' only means wife-husband-children. It's not the two of you against the world - you have many other people in your family.
Even so much harder when your husband doesn't know Jesus.
Jeff kinda looks like Kirk Cousins (Viking’s QB)
Duck duck go...sea salt vitamin c remedy.... also use iodine daily.
I communicate what I expect but he would always do otherwise
Could I get a copy of this book?
JESUS HEALS ANKLES TOO
