An affair doesn’t begin in a single moment of passion—it starts with quiet compromises and subtle shifts of the heart. In this second part of their powerful testimony series, Rusty and Heather Bryant revisit the season before the confession that forever changed their marriage. With raw vulnerability, Heather shares how seemingly harmless “what if” thoughts and a craving for affirmation outside of her marriage slowly eroded her foundation and opened the door to betrayal. Rusty offers perspective from the betrayed spouse, reminding listeners that protecting a marriage begins with guarding your own heart. Together, they reveal how pride, discontentment, and the belief that you “deserve better” can become footholds for the enemy. This episode is essential for anyone seeking to understand the anatomy of infidelity—not to assign blame, but to build stronger boundaries, restore hope, and pursue a deeper walk with God.
