A Biblical Playbook for Marriage: Simple Strategies That Change Everything

What if marriage wasn’t about winning arguments, but about learning how to play on the same team?

In today’s episode, we sit down with Al & Autumn from MarriageTeam to talk about what it really means to have a biblical playbook for marriage. With decades of marriage and ministry experience, they share how God used their own story, messy beginnings, hard lessons, and real growth to shape their passion for helping couples build strong, lasting marriages.

In This Episode, We Cover:
• Al & Autumn’s marriage story and the early lessons God used to shape their ministry
• What a “marriage playbook” really means and why couples need one
• How seeing your spouse as a teammate changes everything
• The vision behind the Rick & Jane Learn to Be Married book series
• Why communication is the first step toward intimacy
• Marriage coaching vs. counseling—and why coaching can be so effective
