We recently held an interview for our 95Network members with Mark and Jill Savage on the topic of marriage in ministry. We don’t usually make our membership resources available to everyone, but this topic is too important not to share.
Mark and Jill have an incredible story of redemption after their marriage started to fall apart (affair included), and they took some time to share with us some of what they learned through the rebuilding process.
