Family – Discipline – Marriage Disciplines

Ephesians 5:25-28 says, “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.”

We need to learn ways to strengthen our marriages by learning disciplines that our parents have (hopefully) modeled for us. If they did not, Scripture, classes, and books can also help us learn ways to build a strong marriage. The marriage can also be encouraged through the knowledge we can gain through from mentors who have successfully been married a long time. The marriage process begins with choosing a mate and identifying compatibility through premarital counseling. Struggles in marriage occur when the nest is empty, when parents lose a child and when hardships occur.

Divine Principles for Living includes sections and teaching on Choosing a Spouse, Co-dependency, Infidelity, Stronger Marriages, and more.
