Nic and Lex Renick's story is hard to believe, but they have the scars and stories to prove it. They were previously married as two men; Lex identified as a man for 14 years (named Austin). But God changed everything in their lives--their bodies, their hearts, and their minds-- after two years of marriage. Now, as husband and wife, they are on a mission to share the Good News of Jesus. This is an episode you won't want to miss.
