Welcome back to another thought-provoking episode of The Prodigal Witness! In Episode 12, we dive deep into the biblical principles and spiritual foundations of a Godly marriage. Marriage is one of the most sacred covenants between two individuals, and understanding how to nurture a relationship that honors God is crucial for believers seeking to build strong, Christ-centered unions.
In this episode, your hosts Bryan, Chris, and [Your Name] explore key elements that define a Godly marriage, drawing from Scripture, personal experiences, and practical insights. Whether you're single, engaged, or married, this discussion will offer valuable wisdom on cultivating a relationship that not only thrives in love but also glorifies God in all aspects.

What does it mean for a husband to love his wife as Christ loved the church? How can a wife embody respect and partnership in a way that reflects God’s design for marriage? These are just a few of the questions we unpack in this episode.
