Tune in Tomorrow: Grace, Intimacy, and Marriage Testimony

Why "Naked and Unashamed" Matters - with Dr. Jerry and Claudia Root

Coffee, Tea & Testimonies Podcast will air a special episode tomorrow at 9:00 AM PST: “Why Naked and Unashamed” with Dr. Jerry Root and Claudia Root.

In our recent conversation with Jerry and Claudia, they told us about their book for couples, Naked and Unashamed, and emphasized the importance of building emotional, spiritual, and relational intimacy before physical intimacy. In this episode we discuss the story behind the book and the burden that motivated them to write it. Pour a cup, join the conversation, and be encouraged by how God’s grace shows up in marriage. This episode will be available on our usual channels.
