From Survival to Wholeness: A Christian Marriage Testimony

Every marriage has a story—but not every marriage heals without intentional work and God’s intervention.

In this deeply personal episode of the Family Room Mission Podcast, Ashley Tilford shares her marriage testimony and the journey from brokenness to wholeness. After unexpected loss, grief, emotional exhaustion, and years of survival-mode living, Ashley and her husband found themselves disconnected, overwhelmed, and unsure how to rebuild intimacy and trust.

This episode explores how grief and unhealed wounds shape marriages, why serving everyone else can cost couples their connection, and how taking responsibility for your own healing is often the turning point toward restoration. Ashley shares the moment that changed everything, how inviting Jesus into the center of their marriage transformed their relationship, and why wholeness must begin within before it can be experienced together.

If you feel stuck in survival mode, emotionally distant from your spouse, or unsure how to move forward after seasons of pain, this testimony will remind you that healing is possible—and that God is faithful to restore what feels broken.

🎧 Listen now and be encouraged that no marriage is beyond God’s ability to heal and restore.
