    🔥 EPISODE DESCRIPTION

    Do you feel a deep burden for struggling marriages—but aren’t sure if it’s actually a calling from God?

    You’re not alone.

    Many couples feel stirred to help others… but don’t know how to discern whether it’s truly a God-given assignment or just a passing desire.

    In this episode of The Praying Couple® Podcast, we’re diving into how to recognize the signs you’re called to marriage ministry, how to discern your calling with clarity, and what God may be doing beneath the surface of your story.

    If you’ve ever thought:

    • “Why do I feel so strongly about helping marriages?”
    • “Is God calling us into ministry?”
    • “What do we do if He is?”

    This episode will help you understand what you’re feeling—and what to do next.

    ✨ WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE

    • The difference between a personal interest vs. a divine calling
    • How to recognize the burden that signals God’s assignment
    • Why you can’t ignore what God is stirring in your heart
    • Biblical insight into how God calls and prepares His people
    • The first step to take if you think God is calling you into marriage ministry

    📖 KEY SCRIPTURES

    • Philippians 2:13 – God works in you to will and act according to His purpose
    • Jeremiah 20:9 – A calling feels like fire shut up in your bones
    • Nehemiah 1 – God gives a burden before an assignment
    • John 10:27 – My sheep hear My voice

    💡 FEELING CALLED? HERE’S YOUR NEXT STEP:

    If this episode resonated with you, don’t ignore it.

    Before you try to build anything, you need clarity.
