In Episode 25, Victoria Parker joins the podcast from Texas to share the beautiful, quiet strength behind a 41-year marriage and decades in ministry. Listen in as Victoria shares the simple but profound secret to her long-lasting relationship: always being considerate and thinking of your spouse before yourself.
She opens up about her unique path to becoming a stay-at-home mom; a role she completely embraced and found immense joy in, thanks to the careful training of her own working mother. Victoria also discusses rededicating her life to Christ in her late twenties when her husband announced his calling, finding comfort in being a support system, and the eventual nudge she felt to successfully pursue her college degree while raising a busy family
