🔥 Two believers. One marriage. One direction. 🔥
You don’t drift into spiritual unity—you build it. And when a husband and wife stop seeking God together, everything else eventually falls out of alignment.
In this bold, no-fluff episode, Brent and Lucy challenge Covenant Warriors to face a hard truth: going to church, loving Jesus individually, and doing life together is not the same as following God together.
You’ll uncover:
Why spiritual drift happens in Christian marriages
The difference between unity and control
How real biblical agreement works (Amos 3:3)
Why the enemy fears unified covenant marriages
One simple spiritual rhythm that can reset your marriage
This episode isn’t about perfection—it’s about direction.
Not pressure—but alignment.
Not feelings—but a decision.
⚔️ As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
Start 2026 on the right footing. Choose one small act of obedience this week—and watch God build momentum in your marriage.

In this episode of the Covenant Army Marriage Podcast, Brent and Lucy Howell deliver a clear, convicting call to action for husbands and wives. This is not about entertainment. These are marching orders for covenant couples who are serious about honoring God and protecting their marriage.
The heart of the episode centers on a growing concern with dishonor in the way spouses speak to and about one another. What culture laughs off as sarcasm, jokes, or harmless fun, God calls poison. Words are never neutral. According to Scripture, they reveal the condition of the heart and either build a home or slowly tear it down.

We unpack why this happens, how complacency slowly kills connection, and why pain becomes a wake-up call for so many who ignored the call to grow inside their covenant.

In this episode of the Covenant Army Marriage Podcast, we confront one of the most painful dynamics in marriage—when a wife courageously shares her hurt, but instead of being heard, she’s met with anger, blame, or defensiveness. What begins as an attempt to bring healing often turns into another wound, leaving her voice buried under silence and frustration.
We expose the enemy’s lie that a woman’s feelings are “too much” or “inconvenient” and remind husbands of their high calling to love like Christ—listening with humility and guarding their wife’s heart with honor. We remind wives that their voice matters and their words are not an attack but a gift of hope for closeness and restoration.
Through Scripture, truth, and practical steps, we equip couples to break the cycle of defensiveness, lean into listening, and embrace communication as a path to intimacy rather than division. This episode is a call to both husbands and wives: stop burying pain under anger or silence, and start building covenant unity by listening, honoring, and responding in love.
