What happens when you drive home determined to leave your marriage and God intervenes with a blank billboard and an unmistakable voice? Mary Dunn's powerful testimony anchors this intimate conversation about marriage, divine intervention, and the courage to stay when everything in you wants to leave.

Mary takes us back to her corporate career days when, feeling isolated and emotionally distant from her husband, she made a bargain with God to let her out of her marriage. The response she received on that highway flyover would transform not just her relationship perspective but her entire life journey. "I was there when he made the promise," God told her, "so getting out isn't an option. However, I can make you the wife that Paul needs."

Now approaching their 44th anniversary, Mary shares the hard-earned wisdom that came from choosing to trust God's voice over her own desires. With refreshing honesty, she and host Denise Jackson explore the communication breakdowns that plague most marriages and the transformative power of simply asking, "What do you need from me?" Their conversation reveals why unspoken expectations become breeding grounds for resentment and how those "little irritants" that seem so important in the moment fade to insignificance with time and perspective.

What makes this conversation truly remarkable is the practical spiritual insight both women offer. They discuss the difference between immediate "Red Sea miracles" and the slow-unfolding transformations that sometimes take years. They share tangible practices like writing down both frustrations and appreciations, helping listeners shift their focus from problems to blessings. Most importantly, they remind us that each marriage is uniquely designed, with both partners bringing different fingerprints to the relationship.

Whether you're struggling in your relationship, supporting someone who is, or simply wanting to strengthen your marriage foundation, this conversation offers both comfort and challenge. Listen now and discover how to hear God's voice speaking into your specific situation, transforming not just your relationship but your own heart in the process.
