On the show today, our guests are Mathew Staver and Kurt Bubna. Mathew Staver, founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel talks about how redefining marriage in efforts to include gay marriage would be the beginning of the end of western civilization. Later in the show, pastor and author, Kurt Bubna joins us to talk about his book, Mr. and Mrs.: How to Thrive in a Perfectly Imperfect Marriage.

Long-married spouses discover how to not just live with each other, but to love each other in a way that can only be described as godly. They’ve come to understand that the joys of marriage often arrive because of its many challenges, not despite them.
Marriage is a perfectly imperfect relationship that’s hard, but worth it.
After nearly forty years of marriage, Pastor Kurt Bubna knows that to be true. In three decades of leading churches, he’s also witnessed the hopes, hurts, confusion, and frustration of hundreds of married couples trying to love each other well in a world that urges selfishness over sacrifice. Combining his church members’ stories and his own “recovering idiot” experiences with insightful biblical knowledge, Pastor Kurt shares vital principles and practical advice that can help any marriage, in any stage, thrive for years on end.
