When your relationship with your spouse is strong, you move out into the world in strength no matter how tumultuous it is, explains theologian Tim Keller. But when that relationship is weak, you move out into the world in weakness, even if everything seems to be going perfectly.

As residents of a tumultuous world, we dedicate this work to our spouses, Kristina and Brandi, who—like so many spouses of entrepreneurs—sacrificed eternally by making ends meet, putting the kids to bed alone, and shouldering way more than half of the work at home.

And despite the burdens they bore, they often looked us right in the eyes during entrepreneurship’s darkest moments and said, “I believe in you.” And that belief alone equipped us to move out into the world with great strength.
