New Year’s Resolutions for Couples

Covenant Marriage Series

Most people usually think of New Year’s resolutions in a very personal and individual sense. Resolutions to exercise more, to lose weight, or to spend more time reading are all examples of common aspirations for a new year. Even resolutions with a spiritual focus are often personal in nature, such as the desire to spend more time in prayer or to read through the Bible in a year. While these intended goals are certainly important and valuable, perhaps the end of a year is also a good time to consider what resolutions you and your spouse can make together.

When was the last time that you had a list of New Year’s resolutions specifically devoted to improving your marriage? Consider taking time this week with your spouse to discuss a few important resolutions that you could agree upon together as needing improvement in the new year ahead.

Message of the Month

Finish

Johnny Pope

As we look forward to what the Lord has for each of us in 2026, we invite you to join us for this Message of the Month by Pastor Johnny Pope. Dr. Pope is a long-time favorite speaker among our Family Conference families. In his message “Finish,” he exhorts us to finish well. Pastor Pope preaches from the passage found in II Timothy 4:7, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.”

Many people begin the new year with fresh goals and big plans. However, all too quickly they lose momentum, and goals and plans fall by the wayside. In his message, Pastor Pope encourages us to patiently run our race well and to be “eternity conscious” in everything we do.

New Podcast Season

Christ’s Commands in Action

This new series will highlight the lives of men and women who sought to live out the commands of Christ. Hear the stories of everyday individuals who impacted the world as they endeavored to follow the teachings of Jesus.

More than just historical recollection, this series is a call to follow Christ just as others who have gone before us—not by exalting people, but by glorifying God’s mighty working through flawed, but faithful vessels. Their testimonies will build our faith, exalt the risen Christ, and offer practical encouragement for how we too can walk as His disciples today. As we consider a different person each week, we will be reminded that the same Christ Who empowered them then is alive in us now—and that His commands are not only to be studied, but also lived.
