Marriage Made in Heaven
Where matrimony meets hilarious reality.
Hosted by Joshua & Ali Spitsbergen, Marriage Made in Heaven isn’t your typical marriage podcast. After 16 years of doing life, love, and ministry together, they're pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like when two become one—biblically, practically, and yes… sometimes embarrassingly.
Each week, they dive into the good, the hard, and the just plain funny of married life—sharing biblical truths, real-life stories, and lessons they’ve learned (sometimes the hard way). From pillow talk confessions to kingdom-minded conversations, this podcast is here to help you build a marriage grounded in grace, rooted in God’s Word, and full of joy—even when it gets messy.
Whether you’re dating, newlywed, or 20 years deep, you’ll laugh, learn, and leave each episode feeling seen, equipped, and a little less alone.
Because this? This is about having a Marriage Made in Heaven—with a whole lot of grace and “Did you seriously just say that?” moments.
