Episode #61 - Spiritual Warfare in Marriage: When the Battle Isn't Between You

In this powerful episode of The Mustard Seed Marriage Podcast, Brittanie explores spiritual warfare in Christian marriage and the subtle ways the enemy works to create division between husbands and wives. Grounded in Bible passages like 1 Peter 5:8 and Ephesians 6:12, this conversation reminds couples of one essential truth: your spouse is not your enemy — but there is an enemy. You’ll learn how spiritual warfare often shows up as disconnection, irritability, miscommunication, pride, comparison, exhaustion, and lingering bitterness — and how to discern the difference between spiritual resistance and personal responsibility. Brittanie also offers practical, faith-based tools to help couples shift from “me vs. you” to “us vs. the problem,” pray together out loud, put on the Armor of God, and close vulnerable access points in their relationship. If you’ve been feeling distant, discouraged, or simply weary in your marriage, this episode will equip and encourage you to fight the right battle — together.
