🔎 What Does Research Say About Marital Satisfaction Among Christians? | Marriage Helper + Barna Study
In this powerful episode, Dr. Joe Beam and Kimberly Beam Holmes dive deep into the fascinating findings from a 2021 survey conducted by Barna Research Group in partnership with Marriage Helper.
➡️ What percentage of Christian couples are truly satisfied in their marriages?
➡️ How does practicing faith impact marital happiness?
➡️ Why do men often report higher satisfaction — and what could they be missing?
➡️ Why does "somewhat satisfied" actually ring alarm bells for marriage health?
You'll hear behind-the-scenes insights into how the survey was designed, why self-reporting can be tricky (especially around sensitive topics like infidelity and satisfaction), and the real implications for couples — and churches — today.
Key Topics Covered: ✔️ Marital satisfaction breakdown across generations: Millennials, Gen X, and Boomers
✔️ Why “somewhat satisfied” may signal hidden danger
✔️ The critical difference between practicing and non-practicing Christians
✔️ How long couples typically wait before seeking help (hint: it’s way too long!)
✔️ Why churches struggle to support marriages—and how Marriage Helper is stepping in to help
✔️ Resources available RIGHT NOW for individuals and churches
