We pray through Scripture, confront the weight of folly, and argue that marriage should look unmistakably faithful—so faithful it seems “too clingy” to a watching world. From Song of Solomon and Melchizedek to boredom’s hidden gift and early American sources, we tie devotion to daily habits that renew homes and civic life.

• cleaving in marriage as a living witness of Christ and the Church
• practical calls to pray, read Scripture, and be still
• Song of Solomon’s pursuit and protection of love
• Melchizedek and Christ’s enduring priesthood
• Psalm 105 on provision leading to obedience
• Proverbs on the heavy cost of foolishness
• boredom as a path to reflection and renewal
• Churchill’s daily quiet as an example of mental rest
• Medal of Honor courage as a model of faithfulness
• founding-era texts tying faith to public virtue
• closing prayer and blessings for families and nations
