In this week’s episode of the Marriage After God Podcast, we talk about something every married couple desires but doesn’t always pursue correctly—wisdom.
If we want healthy marriages, strong families, and deeper intimacy, it begins here.
When we open Scripture and talk about marriage, we want to start where God starts.
This week, we went straight to Ephesians 5:22–33 — one of the most well-known (and sometimes challenging) passages about biblical roles in marriage.
In this Marriage After God podcast episode, I sat down with J. Parker — blogger at Hot, Holy & Humorous and author of The Higher Desire Wife. Our discussion centered on sex and intimacy in Christian marriage, God’s design for physical connection, and what happens when one spouse desires sex more than the other.
We are halfway through our marriage devotional series- and this week we are talking about two powerful emotions that every couple faces: anger and fear.
Forgiveness is essential in marriage — and in life. After all, our salvation is built on forgiveness. If Christ had not forgiven us, we would have no relationship with God. In the same way, without forgiveness, there can be no true reconciliation in marriage.
Pride is one of the most destructive forces in marriage. It doesn’t always show up loudly. Sometimes it whispers through defensiveness, control, silent treatment, or the need to always be right. But whether loud or quiet, unchecked pride can slowly erode intimacy, unity, and trust.
