When did the internet become safer than honest conversation with your spouse?

In this eye-opening episode of Marriage Mondays with The Kings, we unpack a growing trend that is quietly reshaping marriages. A 2025 survey reveals that 64% of married Americans search online for marriage help before speaking to their spouse, often out of fear of conflict, misunderstanding, or making things worse.

Couples are turning to AI, Google, forums, and social media for answers — while real conversations at home go untouched.

In this episode, we discuss:
• Why couples trust AI more than their partner
• The emotional fears behind silent searching
• The Top 10 most-searched marriage questions people ask online
• How avoiding hard conversations damages trust and intimacy
• What Scripture teaches us about communication
• Practical, faith-based tools to help couples reconnect and heal

Focal Scripture: James 1:19

If you feel disconnected, unheard, or unsure how to start the hard conversations in your marriage, this episode will challenge you, encourage you, and give you tools to begin doing the root work that leads to real healing.

This is a conversation every couple needs to hear.

In Part III of this powerful series, we move from awareness to action. After uncovering the wounds (Part I) and identifying the patterns they create in marriage (Part II), this episode focuses on the practical tools individuals can begin using to heal the childhood pain that continues to shape their reactions, emotions, and communication today.

Many husbands and wives know something from their past is affecting their relationship, but they don’t always know what to do next. This episode is designed to guide you into the next step of your healing journey. We walk you through biblically grounded, emotionally safe, and practical strategies that help you begin repairing the inner child that still influences how you show up in your marriage.

You’ll learn:
• How to recognize your default emotional responses
• How to create safety within yourself and your relationship
• How to express what you feel without blaming your spouse
• How to interrupt destructive patterns
• How to rebuild trust with your own emotions
• How to begin reparenting the wounded parts of you
• How to communicate needs and fears with honesty and grace

Healing inner childhood wounds isn’t easy, but it is possible. This episode gives you the tools to begin doing the work—step by step, layer by layer—so you can show up in your marriage as a healthier, more grounded, more emotionally aware version of yourself.

If you’re ready to break cycles, change patterns, and create a new emotional foundation for your marriage, this episode will meet you right where you are.

Don’t just talk about healing—start doing the work.

In this powerful continuation of last week’s conversation, we go deeper into the truth many couples avoid: unhealed childhood wounds don’t stay in childhood— they grow up with us, and they show up in our marriages as patterns, reactions, and emotional habits that quietly damage connection.

In Part II, we walk listeners through the real-life behaviors that come from unresolved pain: overreacting, shutting down, controlling tendencies, people-pleasing, hyper-independence, defensiveness, and emotional avoidance. These patterns aren’t random. They are learned survival responses from childhood that become destructive communication styles in adulthood.

Through vulnerable insight, biblical grounding, and practical tools, we explore how to recognize these patterns, interrupt them, and begin creating a safe emotional environment in your marriage. Healing doesn’t happen by accident— it happens by intentional reflection, accountability, and allowing God to deal with the roots, not just the symptoms.

If you’re ready to stop repeating cycles, stop reacting from old wounds, and build a marriage that reflects healing instead of survival mode, this episode is for you.
Your marriage can’t transform until you do.

Tune in, grow, and begin the work that leads to real restoration.
