Divorce and Theology

Part 1 dealt with the assumption that individuals are incomplete without a spouse. Part 2 deals with the trend of considering divorce and remarriage in the same thought at the same time, and the dysfunctions and wrong beliefs that reveals, and why the truth changes our lives. 

Cultural and religious assumptions about marriage and relationships hurt our relationships and set us up for devastating post-divorce singleness. This episode looks into the creation of man and woman in the image of God and how our assumptions about "soulmates" color how we read these passages. Was Eve really God's provision for lonely Adam? Are people really incomplete without a spouse? A better reading of the creation narrative is liberating and Christ-honoring. 

The deep truth behind forgiveness, reaching back into the mystery of God and His justice and how he has brought about forgiveness in the world. 

How does forgiveness work?  Does forgiveness mean reconciliation? Who has authority to forgive sins?
