How often do you stop to evaluate your relationship? In this episode of Beyond The Aisle Podcast, we explore the power of evaluation—a tool often used in the workplace, but rarely applied in our personal lives.
Just like employee reviews create opportunities for feedback and growth, intentional evaluation in relationships—whether you’re dating, engaged, or married—can help couples celebrate strengths, identify areas of improvement, and grow closer through open communication.
Why evaluation is just as important in relationships as it is in business
How to create safe, honest conversations about strengths and struggles
Practical ways to use evaluation to build trust, intimacy, and unity
The role of faith and self-reflection in fostering long-term growth
If you want your relationship to thrive—not just survive—this episode will give you simple, practical steps for inviting evaluation into your journey, helping you and your partner build a stronger, healthier bond.

During the height of the pandemic, conversations about marriage shifted dramatically. Many couples were struggling, and society at large began questioning whether marriage was even worth it. In this Marriage Week 2021 episode of Beyond The Aisle Podcast, we sit down with Pastor Victor and Dr. Amblessed (Amby) Ehiemere of The Well Church in Rockville, MD, to ask a bold question: Is marriage on trial?
Together, we explore why fewer people are choosing to marry, how cultural narratives and therapy-driven ideologies have reshaped marriage expectations, and why joy (rooted in covenant) is far deeper than fleeting happiness.
Why marriage has faced growing skepticism in recent years
The impact of COVID-19 on marriages and societal views of commitment
The difference between happiness and joy in a covenant relationship

If you’ve ever wondered why marriage feels less valued in today’s culture—or questioned its place in your own life—this conversation offers both honest cultural reflection and faith-based encouragement. It reminds us that while society may put marriage “on trial,” God’s design remains unshakable.
