This study investigated the relationship between spousal support and marital satisfaction in Christian married couples in two selected churches in Nairobi County. Methodology: The study adopted a quantitative research method and used a descriptive study research design. Findings: The findings revealed a statistically significant strong positive correlation between marital satisfaction and spousal support. Recommendations: The study concluded that spousal support was important to the quality of a marriage. This implies that the greater the qualities of spousal support in a marriage, the greater the quality of marital satisfaction. The study recommended that the church should create pre-marital counseling; and the content and duration of such pre-marital sessions be designed to allow adequate coverage of all critical topics necessary to ensure quality spousal support. Couples in distress marriages should be encouraged to seek therapy from marriage and family therapists who can facilitate them in handling issues that bring conflicts in their marriages at a more personalized individual level. 2024-05-06T09:59:05Z 2024-05-06T09:59:05Z 2023 Article Aseka E.
