Marriage

Marriage is a joy and a blessing, but it won't always be easy. When tensions and anger take hold, when trust is broken, when it feels like God is silent - cling to these verses. 

You want to yoke yourself with someone who also wants to change. Someone who puts you first in the relationship rather than themselves will be more likely to do so as you progress in your marriage. A marriage that's others-centered is ultimately one of the most successful relationships you can have.

People forget that love is not a feeling; it's a choice. Feelings come and go, but choosing to love someone unconditionally for the rest of your life is a choice. Are you trying to decide if you and your significant other are ready for marriage? Here are some ways that you know that both of you are ready.

Many Christians worry they’re “settling” if marriage doesn’t feel like a fairy tale. Scripture tells a different story about what truly matters when choosing a spouse.

Usually when couples feel disconnected from one another, the root of the problem is intimacy. Spiritual, emotional, and physical intimacy is the thread that ties couples together. Even if it fades, God has given us ways to rekindle it again.

For couples experiencing infertility, many phrases or questions can be triggering. Family, friends, and even strangers often have well-meaning intentions. Still, to a woman struggling to conceive or a husband wondering if they’ll ever have a baby of their own, some phrases come across as insensitive at best and downright mean at worst. These couples are already experiencing an emotional rollercoaster.

Loneliness is rising, and many are quietly turning to AI for comfort and connection. Could this new digital attachment be crossing a line that Scripture clearly draws around marriage?

Being a “wife of noble character” is a rarity because she is not everywoman. Rather, she is an idealized model we should aspire to, understanding that perhaps no one can reach this pinnacle of behavior.

What’s the real difference between forgiving someone, forgetting what they did, and fully reconciling the relationship? This powerful article breaks down what the Bible actually says—and doesn’t say—about forgiveness, grace, and boundaries. If you’ve ever struggled to know what’s required of you when someone hurts you, this will bring clarity, comfort, and freedom.

The more time you and your spouse spend intentionally focusing on God—the source of all love—the more God’s love will flow between you. Love is much more than a feeling; it’s an action that you need to intentionally choose on a regular basis. When you choose to act in love toward each other, loving feelings will follow.

God has much to say in the Bible about how he wants us to make marriage last forever and the marriage relationship.

God is not afraid of your emotions; He understands your pain and wants you to bring your burdens to Him.

Our unity was tested and we learned, through God’s refining fire of suffering, ways in which to love and honor each other regardless of our circumstances.

A person can get divorced if their spouse is unfaithful to them or abuses them in any way. The Bible also tells us that our identity is in Christ; therefore, if we leave our marriage, it does change our worth in God’s eyes.

It took years to start receiving love and words of affirmation about my body from my husband. To receive love, we must replace rejection with God's revelation.

Praising God and praying His will for your spouse is guaranteed to be your most rewarding work as his wife. With these five powerful prayers, you will be arming your marriage with God’s Word and investing in his role as your spiritual leader.

Men, you need to come up with your own ideas for how to date your wife. You know your wife better than anyone else.

Our marriages will inevitably fail—or at the least, be completely miserable—when we withhold forgiveness. 

Apathy leads to more apathy, which is the killer of passion and feelings of love. Intentional words, actions, time spent, and boundaries fuel our love over the long haul. Sometimes, we find we've drifted from that place of love we once knew and see bitterness holding us back. That does not mean we are without hope; this is something most of us long-time married people have encountered over the years. We just have to come back to Jesus.
