Description
Is the distance between you and your spouse growing wider every day?
You're not alone. Between demanding jobs, endless responsibilities, and the weight of daily life, many Christian couples find themselves living like roommates instead of soulmates-sharing a home but missing the deep connection they once had.
This Lent, everything can change.
40 Days Lent Devotional for Couples 2026 isn't another marriage book filled with unrealistic expectations or surface-level advice. It's an honest, transformative journey through the wilderness of Lent that meets you exactly where you are-tired, frustrated, perhaps even questioning whether your marriage can be renewed.
What makes this devotional different:
Brutally honest about real marriage struggles - addresses communication breakdowns, accumulated resentments, fading intimacy, and the silent distance that creeps in over time
Biblically grounded and practical - each day includes Scripture, reflection, prayer, and actionable steps that take less than 20 minutes together
Follows the sacred rhythm of Lent - from Ash Wednesday's acknowledgment of brokenness through Holy Week's confrontation with suffering to Easter's celebration of resurrection
Written for Catholic Christian couples - incorporates traditional Lenten practices, sacramental understanding, and authentic faith perspectives
Addresses what others avoid - forgiveness when trust is broken, sacrificial love when you're exhausted, intimacy when connection feels impossible, and perseverance when hope feels lost
Inside you'll discover:
How to build your marriage on the unshakeable foundation of Christ instead of shifting circumstances
The specific enemy tactics working against your union-and how to resist them together
Why small daily acts of service transform marriages more than grand romantic gestures
How to speak truth in love without causing defensiveness or shutting down
The sacred art of patient expectation when God seems silent and change feels impossible
Practical prayer guides and daily Scripture readings specifically chosen for couples
This isn't about becoming the perfect couple. It's about two broken people choosing faithfulness over feelings, covenant over convenience, and resurrection over death-one day at a time for 40 transformative days.
The same power that raised Jesus from the dead can resurrect what feels dead in your marriage. But resurrection requires walking through the wilderness first.
Your marriage is worth fighting for. This Lent, stop fighting each other and start fighting together.
Includes: Complete 40-day journey - Daily prayers for couples - Scripture reading plan - Marriage check-in guides - Appendices for ongoing spiritual growth.
