The Enemy Isn’t Your Spouse: A Marriage Built on That One Truth

Join Shannon Bream as she welcomes Grammy-winning artist and bestselling author Steven Curtis Chapman and his wife Mary Beth Chapman to discuss their new book, Still Here: Life Together on the Long Way Home. With the kind of honesty that can only come from 42 years in the trenches together, this beloved couple pulls back the curtain on what marriage really looks like, from crying on the way home from the Cincinnati Zoo on their honeymoon to navigating devastating grief, deep valleys, and the daily choice to bear with one another in love. They tackle the “holy headlock” of two sinners building a life together, explain why your spouse changing over time is a feature – not a flaw – and share why prayer doesn’t have to be elaborate or religious-sounding to be powerful. The Chapmans are quick to say this isn’t a book by people who have it all figured out, it’s a book by two people who nearly didn’t make it, kept choosing each other anyway, and can now say with hard-won certainty: it is worth it.
