    How Secrets, Separation, and Surrender Restored Our Marriage. -Interview with Joe & Chana Navarro

    16/06/2026 | 52 mins.
    “Our separation wasn't the end of our marriage. It became the wake-up call that saved it…”
    What happens when a couple who looks successful on the outside is quietly falling apart behind closed doors? 
    In this powerful conversation, Joe and Chana Navarro share how infidelity, pornography, financial loss, isolation, separation, and broken trust nearly ended their marriage, and how God restored what seemed impossible to repair. 
    Their story is a reminder that no marriage is beyond redemption when two people are willing to heal, grow, and allow Jesus to have the final say.
