Summary
In this episode of the Marriage After God podcast, Aaron sits down with Casey and Meygan Caston, the husband-and-wife team of Marriage365, who are passionate about helping couples build Christ-centered marriages that overflow into strong families and healthy communities. Through their own journey of learning to love with greater patience, intentionality, and emotional awareness, they have developed a heart for encouraging couples to prioritize their relationship at home. In this episode, they talk about the biblical foundation of love and how it begins in the most important place — our homes.
Together, we explore Jesus’ teaching on the two greatest commandments: to love God and to love others. But what does that look like practically? The conversation unpacks how loving your spouse well is the first and most important opportunity to live out that command.
In this episode we discuss how-
- Loving your spouse is your first and daily opportunity to love others well.
- Patience and kindness inside the home shape the emotional health of your family.
- Children learn what love looks like by watching their parents’ relationship.
- Genuine love requires intentionality, humility, and reliance on God.
Scripture Mentioned
- Matthew 22:37–39 — The two greatest commandments
- 1 Corinthians 13:4–7 — Love is patient, love is kind
- John 13:35 — “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”
