Weekly devotions and guided questions for a stronger marriage
Let’s get this straight from the beginning: This devotional is not about helping you create a “Godly marriage.” That might sound surprising, even wrong, but stick with me. The phrase “Godly marriage” gets tossed around a lot in Christian circles. But I believe it’s actually a bit of an oxymoron. It implies that marriage is a secular idea that becomes spiritual only if we invite God into it. But here’s the truth: Marriage has never been secular. It was — and still is — a holy covenant created by God from the very beginning. Marriage isn’t something we make Godly. It’s something God designed to be holy. Before there were church buildings or Sunday services, there was marriage— a relationship meant to reflect God’s nature, His creativity, His love, and His covenant faithfulness. So this devotional isn’t about adding God to your marriage. It’s about rediscovering that He was always at the center of it.
From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture shows us that marriage and family have always been a part of God’s design. His heart is that marriage would be a place of companionship, love, and purpose— a partnership built not just to survive the storms of life but to accomplish the calling He’s placed on your lives.
Each week, before you jump into the practical reflection questions that will set your marriage up for success, you’ll spend a few minutes together in God’s Word. We’ll explore one passage or verse from each book of the Bible— not as a checklist, but as a way to hear God’s voice over your relationship and grow stronger together. So wherever you are in your marriage— newlyweds, parenting partners, empty nesters, or rebuilding something that’s felt broken— if you will make this your prayer: “Lord, help our marriage.” I believe He will.
