Marriage Mondays with The Kings is a marriage and relationship podcast hosted by Kenya and ShanTrail King, a husband-and-wife team married for more than 27 years and hosts on KRGN 98.5 FM “The Rock” in Central Texas. We have honest conversations about the real challenges people face in marriage, dating, relationships, and family life. From communication, trust, forgiveness, intimacy, conflict, emotional healing, rebuilding after heartbreak, and strengthening connection to personal growth and purpose, we talk about the issues that can either strengthen a relationship—or slowly tear it apart. Our marriage has been a living testimony of growth, commitment, perseverance, and love in action. Through our lived experience, professional insight, humor, and encouragement rooted in God’s Word, our mission is to help people build healthier relationships and make intentional choices that lead to lasting change. This podcast is not only for married couples. It is also for singles preparing for marriage, engaged couples, individuals rebuilding after heartbreak or divorce, and anyone who wants to better understand themselves and how they show up in relationships. Marriage may not always be picture-perfect, but it can still be powerful. Sometimes the strongest relationships are built through honest conversations, accountability, healing, forgiveness, and the willingness to grow. Our motto says it best: Helping to build stronger marriages that lead to stronger families and stronger communities. So grab your spouse—or your notebook—and join the conversation. We are challenging unhealthy patterns, strengthening relationships, and helping people build the kind of love, connection, and community that can stand through real life. Tune in, share the show, and be encouraged.

    When AI (Artificial Intelligence) Becomes Your Marriage Counselor

    Send us Fan Mail When did AI become easier to talk to than your own spouse? More couples are turning to artificial intelligence, Google, social media, forums, and other online spaces for answers to some of the most personal questions in their marriages—sometimes before having the conversation with the person sleeping right beside them. In this episode of Marriage Mondays with The Kings, Kenya and ShanTrail explore what happens when AI starts becoming the place we take our marriage questions, frustrations, fears, and private thoughts. Technology can be a helpful tool—but what happens when asking AI feels safer than communicating honestly with your spouse? And when does seeking guidance online cross the line into avoiding the conversations your marriage actually needs? In this episode, we discuss:  Why someone may feel safer talking to AI than their spouse  The fears that can make difficult conversations feel impossible  Some of the most common marriage questions people search for online  How relying on outside answers can affect trust, communication, and intimacy  The difference between using AI as a tool and treating it like a marriage counselor What Scripture teaches about listening, communication, and understanding  Practical ways couples can begin having the conversations they have been avoiding Focal Scripture: James 1:19 AI can give you information. It can help you organize your thoughts. It may even help you see a situation from another perspective. But it cannot do the work of your marriage for you. At some point, the question you typed into the search bar may need to become the conversation you have with your spouse. If you've ever found yourself asking AI something about your marriage that you haven't been able—or willing—to ask your spouse, this episode may hit a little differently. Listen, reflect, and then have the conversation. Support the show

    IT’S TIME TO ELEVATE: Your Marriage

    Send us Fan Mail Is your marriage truly growing — or just repeating the same cycles with different arguments? In this eye-opening episode of Marriage Mondays with The Kings, IT’S TIME TO ELEVATE: Your Marriage, we get honest about the real reason many relationships stay stuck. Spoiler alert: it’s not always your spouse. Many of the struggles couples face today are rooted in unhealed childhood wounds, emotional baggage, and toxic patterns that quietly follow us into adulthood. Using the powerful illustration of a hot air balloon, we break down how issues like control, fear of abandonment, unresolved anger, addiction, and people-pleasing act like sandbags — keeping marriages grounded when they were designed by God to soar. Rooted in Isaiah 40:31, this conversation explores how spiritual faith must be matched with emotional healing and personal responsibility. You’ll hear modern-day examples of how couples unknowingly replay their past in present conflicts, why prayer without action keeps us stagnant, and how true freedom comes when we release what’s toxic within. “When you release what is toxic to you, you feel free — and that freedom causes you to elevate higher.” We close with practical, faith-based tools individuals can start using immediately to bring healing, accountability, and elevation into their marriage. If you’re ready to stop surviving and start rising together, this episode is for you. Support the show

    Send us Fan Mail In today’s world, couples are facing more pressure than ever—financial hardships, job loss, political tension, and racial division threaten to pull families apart.

    Marriage & Vision

    Send us Fan Mail Have you ever stopped to ask yourself, “What do I want my marriage to look like?” Whether you are single, dating, engaged, or already married, having a vision for marriage matters. For the singles, are you preparing for the type of marriage you are praying for? Have you thought about the kind of husband, wife, communication, commitment, family, faith, and love you desire to build one day? For the married couples, does your marriage feel stagnant, disconnected, stuck, or like you are just going through the motions? Sometimes the issue is not that the love is gone—it may be that the vision has been lost. In this episode of Marriage Mondays with The Kings, we are talking about marriage vision, relationship goals, preparing for marriage, healthy marriage, communication in marriage, faith-based marriage, and building a stronger future together. A marriage without vision can easily become a marriage without direction. But when a husband and wife are intentional, prayerful, and willing to grow together, they can begin building a marriage that reflects purpose, unity, love, and commitment. So the big question is: Do you have a vision for your marriage? And if not, what is keeping you from creating one? 🎧 Tune in to Marriage & Vision with The Kings. Be blessed, listen in, and share this episode with someone who is preparing for marriage or trying to strengthen the marriage they already have. Support the show

    Open Marriage

    Send us Fan Mail Open marriage is a topic that many people are talking about, but not everyone is willing to have the honest conversation. Is an open marriage a good idea? Can open marriage rules and boundaries protect a relationship? What does an open marriage really do to trust, intimacy, commitment, and emotional safety between a husband and wife? And for those who follow God, we have to ask the deeper question: Does God support open marriage? Should Christian couples even entertain the idea of an open marriage, or does it move the marriage away from God’s design for covenant, faithfulness, and commitment? In this powerful series of Marriage Mondays with The Kings, we are taking our time and diving into the real questions surrounding open marriage, Christian marriage, biblical marriage, boundaries in marriage, trust in marriage, infidelity, emotional connection, sexual intimacy, and what it means to honor your spouse and your covenant. Many people are afraid to talk about this topic, but we are not. We are going to have the conversation with truth, wisdom, faith, and love. 🎧 Listen in, join the conversation, and share your thoughts. This is one episode you do not want to miss. Support the show
