38. Longevity in Marriage

There's something so amazing about marriages that last a lifetime! But what makes them last? To answer this question, we have to start with why God created marriage. In Genesis 2, we see that God creates marriage for the purpose of friendship, working together, sexuality, and family. When sin enters the world, the marriage relationship becomes even harder, yet we see God using this relationship to transform his people into his image. How we practically do this will look different for all of us. But for all of us, we're invited to cling to God's beautiful design for his people.
