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.

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

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.
