A good marriage takes work, that we know. But when mental health struggles come up for one or both spouses, it can try the most important relationship of our lives in very unique ways.
Matt and Celeste Davis believe that facing these struggles together can instead make a marriage even better. Both have taken turns struggling with depression (see their past solo episodes with me here and here!), so they know first-hand how to guide a spouse through a very difficult time.
The Davis family thrives off of openness, communication, vulnerability, and strength–both independently AND together.
Listen in to hear their tips for helping a spouse through a dark time, how you need to be a care-giver, not a savior, and that talking, talking, talking is the best thing you can do for your marriage.

Monica, I am probably asking this question in the wrong place but I am desperate to find your post that you referred to in Jan. 2017, Why I Continue in My Faith. There was a link but it’s not working and I have searched archives. Thank you! I would love to read more!
I apologize for that! I just barely redid my website so all the links are different. I’ll try to find it for you! Did you search for “Faith” in the search bar?
Here it is: https://aboutprogress.com/2016/03/10/i-thought-i-had-to-leave-my-faith/
