Marriage Advance

After serving in the War on Terror in Afghanistan, Special Operations Force Recon Marin, Chad Robichaux returned home and was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Through the accolades of military service and the notoriety that comes with being a top ranked Professional MMA Fighter, few saw beneath the surface where the reality was brokenness and despair. Subsequently, he and his wife, Kathy, spent the next 3 years in a downward spiral nearly ending in divorce. When all seemed lost, one wife's prayers and willingness to fight, to not throw in the towel, would lift her Warrior back to his feet and help him engage in the fight for the most important things in their life... their faith, marriage, family, and legacy. Join Chad and Kathy Robichaux as they lead you through 26 weeks of compelling personal testimony with practical, thought-provoking questions and Biblical Truths, helping you build a stronger marriage that will always be "advancing" toward the ultimate success God had in mind when YOU said, "I DO!"
