What Four Husbands Learned About Marriage (the Hard Way)
About this episode
What happens when four husbands get real about the mess, the missteps, and the moments that changed their marriages?
In this all-guys edition of the Grace Marriage Podcast, Brad Rhoads is joined by longtime friends Rob Pierce, Caleb Potter, and Trey Pippen. Together, they unpack what they’ve learned (often the hard way) about communication breakdowns, mismatched parenting styles, emotional connection, and even whether watching Netflix without the other counts as cheating.
Expect laughs, honest confessions, and wisdom forged in the fire of everyday married life.
