December 18, 2025 What does the Marriage Vow For Richer, For Poorer mean?
Christian Marriage coaches Kevin & Amanda Wood tackle the subject of money and financial stress, drawing from their own experience of redundancy, financial stress and God’s provision. They discuss: what for richer, for poorer means; how struggles cause tension and how to look at the situation when one of you is more of a spender and your spouse is more of a saver; joint bank accounts; how to partition your money so that is organised into easier to manage pots; unexpected expense; making decisions together; briefly touching on tithing/giving; maintain intimacy when finance is tight, and seeking help rather than getting stuck in debt.
Listeners might also be interested in their book ‘Marriage Made in Heaven (when we say I will)’, which goes deeper into the traditional marriage vows and how they affect the marriage long after the wedding day.
