Continuing our Single, Dating, Engaged, Married collection, Ben Stuart teaches on marriage, and reminds us that marriage was designed by God to display something about God!
Key Takeaway
Marriage operating as God designed it reveals more about Him and glorifies Him. His word calls wives and husbands to different roles in the relationship, but above all to keep Him at the center of the relationship and to never lose sight of the cross. Marriages who place Jesus at the center of everything live to glorify Him.
