Aquila and Priscilla

In this episode of What Faith Looks Like, Paul turns to the remarkable partnership of Priscilla and Aquila—a married couple whose faith wasn’t passive or private, but active. Priscilla and Aquila give us examples of being committed to the work of the Lord. Their story shows us what it looks like when marriage becomes not just a personal relationship, but a shared mission rooted in devotion to Christ and willingness to serve wherever God calls.

Paul traces their journey from tentmakers in Corinth, to missionary partners traveling with The Apostle Paul, to anchors of the early Christian community in Ephesus and Rome. They lengthened believers, and helped shape one of the great preachers of the early church, Apollos, by gently filling in his understanding of the gospel. Throughout moves, challenges, and constant change, Priscilla and Aquila remain steady, faithful, and united in purpose. Their example invites us to consider what faith in marriage can look like: mutual support, shared conviction, resilience through difficulty, and a partnership that places serving Christ at the center of life together.
