Status Updates From Marriage, Divorce, and Rema...

A man shall leave his father and his mother, and cleave to his wife; and they shall become one flesh. (Gen 2:24)

“This contrast between the temporary parent-child relationship and the permanent husband-wife union..focuses on covenantal companionship..A marriage lacking companionship, is headed toward misery or divorce. All that jeopardizes companionship must be avoided. Whatever promotes it, must be cultivated.”

I’ve enjoyed chapters 8 and 9 more than the rest. More concise, pulls a lot more from the Bible.

This is an interesting book so far, I’m reading it with specific family members in mind and I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or something I should avoid. Just trying to better understand biblically about divorce and remarriage!
