Friendship in Marriage

What is the benefit of being friends in marriage? Does that make it easy?

Fair Fighting- Conflict Without Destruction

Conflict is inevitable, but how we handle it makes all the difference. In this episode of The Covenant Table, we break down what it means to fight fairly-without tearing each other down. Through practical tools and faith-centered wisdom, we talk about healthy communication, setting boundaries during conflict, and resolving disagreements in a way that strengthens, not damages, marriage. This episode reframes conflict as a skill to be learned, not something to fear.

Parental Boundaries

In this episode of The Covenant Table, we address one of the most common and most sensitive challenges in marriage, navigating boundaries with parents. Through scripture and orthodox teaching, we explore what it truly means to “leave and cleave,” honoring our parents without allowing outside influence to harm marital unity. We discuss how priorities shift in marriage, why Godly boundaries are not walls but protective guardrails, and how spouses can remain united when in-law tensions arise. With compassion for parents, who are adjusting to a new season and practical guidance for couples learning to put each other first, this conversation reframes boundaries as an act of love, obedience to God’s design, and a pathway to peace for the entire family.

Submit?

In this episode of The Covenant Table, we unpack one of the most misunderstood teachings in Christian marriage: submission and headship. Through Scripture, Coptic Orthodox tradition, and the voices of the Fathers, we explore what St. Paul really meant in Ephesians 5 and how true headship is modeled not by control, but by Christlike, sacrificial love. We confront modern feminist concerns, clarify equality and distinct roles, and redeem words like “authority” and “obedience” through the lens of mutual submission, dignity, and divine order. This conversation reframes marriage as a covenant of unity, holiness, and love far deeper and more liberating than the world’s narratives of power or competition.
