Keeping It Young

Re-thinking Christian Weddings | Part 4


Listen Later

In this episode, Dave and Bethlie delve into a topic that's essential yet often overlooked in Christian weddings: the balance between the secular and the sacred. Throughout the conversation, they emphasize various facets of Christian weddings that they believe require a deeper reflection. They encourage you to consider the implications of elements such as alcohol, dancing, music, pranks, and the importance of modesty in the context of sacred Christian ceremonies.

  • They challenge the norm of including alcohol in wedding receptions, citing specific warnings in the Bible about its use and the potential pitfalls it can present.
  • The topic of dancing at weddings was discussed, with a reminder that dances are typically considered intimate and sensual in nature, even if they are not intended to be so.
  • They also encourage a careful selection of music with an emphasis on avoiding songs that could potentially cheapen the ceremony's sacredness.
  • They suggest avoiding pranks that could shift the focus from the holy nature of the ceremony to silliness and self-attention.
  • Lastly, the importance of modesty in selecting the bride's dress was underscored. A wedding is a significant platform for expressing our Christian values, and an opportunity to set a firm foundation for the marriage to come.

As you listen to this episode, we challenge you to rethink the elements of your Christian wedding. We remind you that it's a sacred event and should be a reflection of your faith and commitment to biblical principles.

Remember, your decisions shape not just a single day, but a lifetime commitment under God's grace.
