In this sobering and hope filled episode of the Covenant Army Marriage Podcast, Brent and Lucy confront a hard but necessary question: what needs to die in your marriage so covenant can live?

Rooted in 1 John 3, this conversation exposes how unrepented sin is never private and never harmless. It always invades intimacy, erodes trust, weakens spiritual authority, and creates distance between husband and wife. This episode draws a clear line between abiding in Christ and quietly making peace with sin, reminding couples that drifting rarely starts loud but always ends costly.

If your marriage feels disconnected, stagnant, or under attack, this episode will help you see the spiritual root and guide you back to unity, intimacy, and power through abiding fully in Christ. Covenant warriors, this is your call to fight together and choose holiness over hiding.

We are living in evil days and your marriage is not exempt from the pressure. In this episode of the Covenant Army Marriage Podcast, Brent and Lucy issue a clear, biblical call for husbands and wives to stop walking carelessly and start building wisely.

Rooted in Ephesians 5:15–17, this conversation exposes how distraction, busyness, emotional reactions, and passive faith quietly erode covenant marriages. You will hear why wisdom in marriage is not about feelings or convenience, but about obedience, intentionality, and daily surrender to God. This episode challenges couples to redeem their time, guard their unity, pray before crisis hits, and align their marriage with the will of the Lord in a spiritually hostile culture.

This is not about chasing happiness. It is about kingdom impact. A Christ-centered marriage is not an easy target, and unity shuts doors the enemy is desperate to open. If you want a marriage that stands firm, walks wisely, and honors God in dark days, this episode will both confront you and encourage you to fight for your covenant with purpose.

This episode of the Covenant Army Marriage Podcast tackles a word most people avoid, but Scripture does not. Fornication. Not as a shock tactic, but as a serious, loving call to guard what God calls holy.

Brent and Lucy pull back the curtain on how sexual sin is one of the enemy’s most strategic weapons against marriage. Not just physical affairs, but pornography, lustful thoughts, emotional attachments, comparison, media consumption, and private messages that quietly erode covenant intimacy. Using Scripture, real talk, and practical wisdom, they expose how fornication goes far beyond behavior and strikes at the heart of trust, unity, spiritual authority, and oneness.

In this powerful episode of the Covenant Army Marriage Podcast, Brent and Lucy confront a question shaping today’s culture and quietly impacting Christian marriages. Why are people so fascinated with the supernatural?

This fascination is not random and it is not harmless. God placed eternity in the human heart, and when people reject Him, that hunger does not disappear. It gets redirected. What begins as curiosity or entertainment can become a spiritual foothold, opening doors God warned us about long ago.

Words don’t just express conflict. They shape it.

In this powerful episode of the Covenant Army Marriage Podcast, Brent and Lucy confront a hard truth many couples avoid: when harsh language, cussing, sarcasm, and verbal aggression enter marriage conflict, the covenant itself becomes the battlefield.

This conversation is not about shame or finger pointing. It is about freedom, healing, and bringing Christ back to the center of how couples fight.

The episode exposes how profanity and verbal attacks are never neutral. According to Scripture, words carry either life or death. When emotions run high and words turn toxic, something deeper is happening beneath the surface.

🔥 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.
