Brotherhood Forged: A Christian Men’s Podcast on Faith, Fatherhood & Leadership

Episode 61| Pride in Marriage: Choosing Intimacy Over Ego


Listen Later

Pride is sneaky. It shows up in small arguments—like how the dishwasher is loaded—and in bigger moments of control and stubbornness. But here’s the truth: when pride wins, no one really wins.

 

This week, we’re unpacking how pride affects life, faith, and especially marriage—and why choosing intimacy over ego leads to connection, peace, and growth.

 

📖 Ephesians 5:21 reminds us: “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.” Marriage works best when it’s “we,” not “me.”

 

👉 This week’s challenge: Let your spouse have the last word. Not because you’re defeated, but because connection is greater than correction.
