The Story Behind Give Me the Shivers!

The idea for Give Me the Shivers has been rattling around in our brains since 2013 when we were forced to face lust and pornography issues in our marriage. However, the timing never seemed right. In 2015, we moved our family halfway across the country to find healing and recovery. We have been actively involved in Celebrate Recovery since our move. Through that journey, we discovered more hurts, habits, and hang-ups that we did not even realize we were struggling with.

Since 2015, we have dug deep into our hurts, habits, and hang-ups through multiple Step Studies (it’s a CR thing, find out more here) and worked our own individual recoveries. During this time, we have had forever family members that have poured into our lives that God has used to change our hearts and minds. This has led us to pour into others as well. Over the last few years, God has put couples and individuals in our path struggling with marriage. We now feel led to share the wisdom and insight we learned on our recovery journey. God’s timing is perfect!

Meet Your Hosts

Hi, we are Jerrad and Brianne Shivers. We were married in 2009 and thought we were going to live happily ever after. Boy, we were in denial! Just a few short weeks after our wedding, we were faced with struggles and hardships in our marriage that we never saw coming. We have had to face things like dysfunction, lust, and codependency to name a few. Here we will share what we have learned on our journey to help other couples that are struggling in their own marriage. Join us!
