Abstract We study the effect of the non-minimal coupling between matter and geometry on the gravitational constant in the context of $f(R)$ theories of gravity on cosmic scales. For a class of $f(R)$ models, the result shows that the value of the gravitational constant not only changes over time but also has the dampened oscillation behavior. Compared with the result of the standard ${\it \Lambda}$CDM model, the consequence suggests that the coupling between matter and geometry should be weak.
