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.

In this hard-hitting Covenant Army Marriage episode, we confront a painful but common reality-many people let themselves go in their marriage, and don’t start taking care of themselves, physically, emotionally, mentally, or spiritually, until after their marriage has already fallen apart. We unpack why this happens, how complacency slowly kills connection, and why pain becomes a wake-up call for so many who ignored the call to grow inside their covenant.
