  • Very relatable

    The Mary and Jerry podcast is something I look forward to every week. I laugh so much and I feel they have much to share that is honest and helpful. I’m inspired by their strong faith and how they have overcome so many struggles in their marriage. We lost a child and we can relate to the loss their sweet Cortney that passed away . Thank you , Mary and Jerry, for making me laugh and inspiring me. They are awesome!
