Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? —2 Corinthians 6:14
Black Christians can have stronger marriages if we:
- Correct the dysfunction we’ve inherited from our parents and grandparents
- Rely on biblical principles, not just feelings and culture
- Keep checking our blind spots after we get married
These conversation cards were designed by veteran Christian husbands and wives to help couples start strong and stay strong. We investigate before taking a new job, buying a house, or making any other major life decision. We have to be just as thoughtful about marriage.

“The problem is not that Christians get divorced. The problem is that we aren’t prepared for marriage in the first place. We could avoid the disappointment if we had better conversations early on.”
— Aneesa Sergeant, Meachum Village Marriage Coach
