12 Marriage Devotional: The Armor of God Jan 07, 2026

Show notes

In this episode, we talk about the importance of putting on the armor of God and how it impacts our daily lives and marriages. Scripture reminds us that our battle is not against each other, but against spiritual forces of darkness, which means we need God’s strength, His truth, and His righteousness to stand firm.

We walk through several pieces of the armor—like the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, and the shoes of the gospel of peace—and discuss what they practically look like in a Christian marriage. When we anchor ourselves in truth, guard our hearts with righteousness, and cling to the peace that comes from the gospel, we are better equipped to resist temptation, overcome fear, and cultivate unity in our relationship.

Our hope is to remind couples that God has already given us everything we need to stand strong—we simply need to put it on daily.

In this episode-

The armor of God is essential for spiritual protection in marriage.
Each piece has a purpose—and understanding that purpose helps us stand firm.
We must rely on God’s strength, not our own.
Truth fosters unity, vulnerability, and trust in marriage.
Putting on God’s armor daily helps us build a Christ-centered marriage.

The Love That Matters Most in Marriage w/ Dr. Gary Chapman Dec 18, 2025

Show notes

In this episode Aaron sits down with marriage expert Dr. Gary Chapman, author of The Five Love Languages, to talk about the heart behind lasting marriages—and why love must be expressed with humility, grace, and the attitude of Christ.

Drawing from over 60 years of marriage, decades of pastoral counseling, and the lessons that shaped his life’s work, Dr. Chapman shares how early conflict in his own marriage led him to a transformative encounter with God that forever changed the way he loved his wife. Together, Aaron and Gary explore how love languages can heal—or harm—when used incorrectly, and why serving your spouse must always come before trying to change them.

This episode also introduces Dr. Chapman’s newest book, The Love Language That Matters Most, which goes deeper into the dialects of love languages, personality differences, and the dangers of using love as manipulation instead of sacrifice.

In this episode we discuss–

Long-term marriage faithfulness
Biblical foundations for loving your spouse
Servant leadership in marriage
Avoiding manipulation through love languages
Why humility changes everything in relationships

11 Marriage Devotional: The Joy of God's Economy Dec 17, 2025

Show notes

Today on the Marriage After God podcast, we talk about what it means to live according to God’s economy in our marriage. Money is one of the most common areas of tension for couples, yet Scripture calls us to approach our finances with trust, generosity, and open hands.

We share personal experiences of walking through financial uncertainty and how God used those seasons to shift our perspective. Instead of holding tightly to what we had, we learned to trust God as our provider and see generosity as an act of faith. God’s economy doesn’t always align with the world’s expectations, but it consistently leads to freedom and joy.

When couples commit to a shared, biblical view of money, finances become less about control and more about stewardship. Trusting God together with our resources strengthens unity in marriage and reminds us that everything we have ultimately belongs to Him.

In this episode-

God’s economy calls us to trust Him rather than rely on money.
Finances can create tension in marriage without a shared biblical perspective.
Holding money with open hands reflects faith and surrender to God.
Generosity brings joy and deepens trust in God’s provision.
Stewardship begins with recognizing that all we have belongs to God.

08 Marriage Devotional: How Confidence Contributes To A Stronger Marriage Nov 26, 2025

Show notes

Today on the Marriage After God podcast, we explore the truth that Christ alone deserves the throne in our lives. The conversation challenges all of us to lay down anything we’ve elevated above Him and to find our worth, value, and identity solely in who He is. When we honor Christ as our ultimate authority, we experience the fullness, purpose, and freedom found only in Him.

In this episode–

Christ does not want to share any throne in your life.
We are called to seek our worthiness and value in Christ alone.
All honor and glory belong to Christ and Christ only.
Placing anything above Jesus diminishes His rightful authority.
True value is found in a relationship with Him.
Christ deserves our full devotion and undivided heart.
Searching for worth outside of Him always leads to emptiness.
