Marriage: What's Love Got To Do With It?
Ephesians 5:22
22 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
Ephesians 5:24
25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her
Marriage is meant to last. If I am married, I will love my spouse forever. Some countries (unlike America) still arrange marriages. In America, we marry for love.
According to a Feb 2, 2017 CNN report, The average cost of a wedding climbed to a record high of $35,329 last year, according to The Knot's 2016 Real Weddings study. That's up 8% from the 2015 average. Marriage: What's Love Got To Do With It? A Feldhahn study says that 72% of those interviewed were still married to 1st spouse. Divorce rate for Christians is 30% vs the reported 50%. That is still high. So is it possible to stay together? More importantly is can a couple stay together and stay in love?
