5 Ways to Grow in Faith With Your Partner This YearSample

Day 4: Start a Couple’s Devotional Playlist

Music is powerful. A single song can lift your mood, spark old memories, or even bring you closer to God. Pairing that with your faith and your relationship makes for a beautiful way to grow spiritually as a couple. That’s where creating a couple’s devotional playlist comes in! It’s a fun, intentional way to integrate worship into your daily lives while staying connected to each other and to Him.

Start by sitting down together and brainstorming songs, hymns, or podcasts that resonate with both of you. What worship songs have spoken to your heart recently? Are there any hymns that remind you of God’s faithfulness in your relationship? Maybe there’s a podcast series that dives into themes like Christian relationships, spiritual growth, or trusting God. You don’t have to stick to just one category — this playlist should reflect both of you and where you are on your faith journeys.

Once your playlist is ready, make it a part of your routine to turn everyday moments into opportunities for worship and connection. Listen to it while driving to meet each other, letting the lyrics inspire your thoughts and spark meaningful conversations. Or play it during your evening wind-down, creating a calm and reflective atmosphere. Even when you're cooking dinner together, let worship music or a thought-provoking podcast in the background add depth to your time together.

The beauty of this practice is that it meets you where you are. It’s not about finding extra time in your already-packed schedules; it’s about bringing God and each other into the moments you already share. Worship becomes part of your rhythm as a couple, and the playlist acts as both a tool for reflection and a source of encouragement.

You may find that certain songs or episodes lead to deeper conversations. Why does this song resonate with you? How does this message relate to where God is leading you as a couple? These discussions can open the door to a new level of understanding and spiritual intimacy, reminding you that you’re not just growing in faith individually — you’re doing so together.

Whether it’s a quick car ride or a quiet hour at home, your playlist can help you usher in God’s presence throughout the day. It reminds you to pause, reflect, and praise Him for all He’s done and all He will continue to do in your relationship.

Today, take the first step … start building your playlist! Choose songs and messages that will inspire and uplift you both. Then, hit play and pay attention to how God uses this simple act of worship to deepen your faith and bring you closer together.
