Can Faith Help with Marital Conflict?

Conflict is a huge part of marriage; anyone who’s been in one for more than five minutes will tell you that. In fact, some people even argue that without a little tension here and there, you're probably not even being real with each other.

But still, it’s wild how even the most loving couples find themselves looking at each other and thinking, “How did we even get here?”

Especially when you rewind to the early days, when everything felt light, sweet and exciting. Back when even their annoying habits seemed kind of cute. Fast forward a few years, a couple of arguments, a whole lot of responsibilities... and suddenly, love starts to feel like real work.

We’ve all heard the usual marriage advice: communicate better, make time for each other, go on date nights, listen more, argue less. And sure, those things help. But there’s one angle people don’t talk about enough—faith.

Not just faith in your partner, but faith that there’s something bigger holding you two together when everything else feels like it’s falling apart.
