The Sacred Union of Marriage

The sacred union of marriage & family were established by God in the beginning and were meant to be a blessing to us forever. The family is the foundation of society and it mirrors our relationship with God. Therefore, it is very important to Him that we honor marriage and our promises.

First we look through the Old Testament law and consequences for breaking it. They had some very strange and interesting customs, so hopefully you enjoy taking a quick look at them. God had a protection for rape in His laws and also a way to discover hidden sin.

We spend some time encouraging those who have experienced adultery in their own marriages, along with those who are divorced. God redeems and restores, so this is not a condemning message, but rather a better understanding of the purpose of marriage and why God puts so much emphasis on it.

At the end, we spend a lot of time on preventing unfaithfulness before it has a chance to divide you and your spouse.

There is encouragement for the unmarried, those who are virgins and those who are not. Obviously, there is encouragement to join to your spouse and be one as God intended, but also what to do if you have experienced adultery, divorce, or remarriage. So this is an episode for everyone, no matter what you present circumstance.
