Joel and Mary Beeke have spent decades studying, teaching, and living what the Bible says about marriage.

In this conversation we explore the biblical foundation of a strong marriage, why many couples slowly drift apart, and how Scripture provides a model for love, respect, friendship, and lifelong commitment.

Joel Beeke is a pastor, theologian, and author of more than 100 books. Mary Beeke is a teacher, writer, and longtime pastor’s wife who has helped generations of women and families cultivate strong Christian homes.

Together they wrote How to Build a Godly Marriage: 12 Principles for Flourishing and Lasting.

We discuss the biblical pattern of marriage found in Ephesians 5, the Puritan vision of joyful family life, and why holiness — not emotional intensity — is the true foundation of lasting happiness.

If you want to build a strong Christian marriage, lead your household well, and recover the deeper wisdom of the Christian tradition, this conversation offers practical guidance and time-tested insight.
