We've all heard it before, "communication is key." But in practice, true communication in relationships and marriage can be difficult. What happens when two different people who grew up in two different households with two different communication models get married? On today's episode of the Abundant Life Family Podcast, our hosts Bill and Jen Hildebrand talk with Jonathan and Angela Buttram about intentional, biblical, communication in marriage. The Buttrams share about their journey and learning how to navigate differing communication styles. Ultimately, they learned it wasn't about communicating to be heard, but communicating to understand. The Buttrams have been married 12 years and Jonathan leads the Re:generation ministry at Abundant Life and Angela serves on the Worship team.
