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.

Love Is Patient, Love Is Kind: Living 1 Corinthians 13 in Real Marriage
In this heartfelt episode of Marriage Made in Heaven, we're unpacking one of the most quoted yet misunderstood scriptures about love, 1 Corinthians 13. It’s the verse that shows up at every wedding, but how often do we actually live it in our day-to-day marriage?
From forgiveness and patience to emotional maturity and servanthood, this conversation dives deep into what real, biblical love looks like behind closed doors; when life is busy, tempers flare, and grace feels like work.
We're sharing stories from our own journey, lessons from counseling couples, and powerful truths about the kind of love that endures, heals, and transforms.
You’ll hear them discuss:
• What it really means that “love is patient, love is kind”
• How to love when your feelings don’t match your faith
• The difference between emotional reactions and spiritual maturity
• What forgiveness looks like after betrayal or broken trust
• Why humility and servanthood are the foundation of lasting love
• How to guard your marriage against division, temptation, and pride
We don’t sugarcoat it, we talk about our mistakes, our growth, and how God’s Word continues to anchor our marriage through every season.
Key Quote:
“Love isn’t a feeling; it’s a decision to show the heart of God when everything in you wants to do the opposite.”
