dc.description.abstractThis study sought to establish the prevalence of marriage conflicts and marital instabilityamong middle-agedcouples in Suneka, KisiiCounty. The target population of the research was 1000participants, with a focus on the middle-agedcouplesin Suneka, Kisii. The study was quantitative and employed a descriptive design. The study randomly drew a sample of 314from the target population using Yaro Yamane formulae. The data was collected using a structured questionnaire of32 items. The researcher distributed the questionnaire to the 314 respondents and after two months she went back and collected the filled questionnaires. The data analysis was done using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 23andpresented using tables. The findings of the study revealed a positive and significant relationship between couples’ prevalence and their marital stability. The study recommendsthat married couples need help in learning how to deal with conflicts. Teaching biblical principles of marriage canreduce if not end the trend of marital instability. This would be in line with Christian beliefthat God createdman and woman and blessed their union to be a lifetime. However, as other factors may center on highly functioning marriages, quality sex life among couples is the main tributary of it (communication) to enhance the joyful and thankful relationshipen_US
