In this episode, we delve into the core elements that make a marriage not just survive, but thrive. We go beyond the usual suspects of communication, healthy sex life, mutual respect, and financial stability. Instead, we focus on the foundational aspects that precede and outlast these factors. We believe that building a lasting marriage requires action, intention, and a willingness to do the work. So, let's dive in!

Topic: The Three Pillars of a Lasting Marriage

1. Acknowledge and Accept that Marriage is a Covenant

Marriage is more than a legal document or state acknowledgement. It's a covenant, a promise made before God. This covenant is not formed based on who we are or who we will be, but on a choice. We choose to be one until death. Understanding this helps us fight against the lies that tempt us to run or look elsewhere. It reminds us that our promise to each other is before God and not based on our current circumstances.

2. Find Security in Knowing the Purpose of Your Marriage

When we understand that our marriage has a purpose and that God desires to use our marriage for His kingdom and for our good, we begin to experience our marriages differently. The purpose of marriage was meant to reveal in an earthly human relationship the divine relationship between Christ and His church. Walking in this truth will be a cornerstone for us.

3. Cultivate Willing Hearts

Having a willing heart in conversation, intimacy, and sacrifice is key to a thriving marriage. Willingness in conversation means being ready to listen, share, and apologize. Willingness in intimacy involves pursuing, embracing, and trying new things. Willingness in sacrifice includes surrendering your time for their sake, serving, and laying down your desires to be in agreement.

Conclusion

Building a lasting marriage requires more than the usual advice. It requires acknowledging and accepting the covenant of marriage, understanding the purpose of your marriage, and cultivating a willing heart. Join us as we explore these concepts in depth and provide practical advice on how to implement them in your marriage.
