The Marriage Game Plan

From Pride To Partnership

Journey for Life Season 1 Episode 5

We want to hear your feedback. Text here.

We sit down with Clayton and Ashley Hurst, marriage pastors at Lakewood Church (Houston, Texas), to trace their path from pride and pain to a practical, hope-filled marriage built on humility, daily devotions, and community. Their story offers clear plays you can run today to rebuild trust, safety, and unity.

• Skipping premarital counseling and the slow slide into hopelessness
• The question that sparked humility and a new start
• Daily non-negotiables of honor, respect, and security
• Vulnerability, open devices, and safe conversations
• Reading the Bible together and renewing the mind
• Planning before conflict and fighting as a team
• Processing grief, seeking counseling, and showing grace
• Finding mentors, joining groups, and avoiding isolation
