About Christian Couple Games
Christian couple games have to work in two settings: a couple at home and a small group at church. These 15 do both — questions about faith, marriage and how the two intersect, all of them clean enough for a church hall and substantial enough to be worth the evening.
Sample questions to get you started
- 1How did faith shape what you expected from marriage?
- 2What do you find hardest about practising your faith together?
- 3What does forgiveness look like between us in practice?
- 4Where do we differ in what we believe, and does it matter?

Why couples love this game
Couples who share a faith often talk about it in general terms and rarely about how it plays out between the two of them specifically. A set of questions moves that conversation from the abstract to the practical, which is where it is useful.
Tips to make it more fun
- In a group setting, let couples answer privately first.
- Nobody is obliged to share anything with the room.
- The questions about practice matter more than the ones about belief.
- Works well as a marriage retreat session.
Frequently asked questions
What are good Christian games for couples?
Question-based ones about how faith plays out between the two of you specifically rather than in the abstract. Those work at home and in a small group setting equally well.
Can this be used in a small group?
Yes. Let each couple answer privately first and share only what they choose to with the room — that is what makes it work in a group.
