Chris & Marj's Story

In this heartfelt testimony, Chris and Marge share their transformative journey of faith and love. Raised in religious households, both attended church regularly in their youth, but their personal relationship with Jesus deepened later in life. Chris reflects on a long period of anger due to his spina bifida and a superficial understanding of love that focused on the physical aspects of relationships. After their divorce, he moved away and experienced a profound spiritual awakening that led him to Christ. Marge, who was initially disillusioned by the breakdown of their marriage, found peace and forgiveness through her faith, which was rekindled by a friend's persistent encouragement to return to church.

The couple describes how embracing Jesus reshaped their understanding of love, emphasizing forgiveness and sacrifice over mere physical attraction or presence. Chris credits this new perspective with helping him become a better partner in his second marriage, which strengthened his faith through daily devotions and a deeper connection to God. Marge and Chris highlight the importance of genuine repentance and owning past mistakes, which opened them up to receive God's love and forgiveness truly. This powerful narrative of reconciliation and growth in Christ underscores the profound impact of divine love in healing and transforming personal relationships.
