    Strengthening Your Marriage While Caring for a Child with Special Needs

    Date: Aug 18, 2026

    Guests: Todd and Kristin Evans

    Parenting special needs children (while bringing many blessings) can also feel like entering the ultimate survival challenge with your spouse. Stress is heightened, and grief is often difficult to bear. Todd and Kristin speak about this struggle and how they pulled through some of the most difficult relational challenges and emotional barriers in their marriage. They bring a message of hope for marriages weighed down by the emotional burdens of life and parenting.
