If you will let Christ’s peace and word be your North Star, be the goal and aim of every word and deed with your spouse, your marriage will thrive and you will overflow with thankfulness that glorifies God.

Biblical love is service and sacrifice on behalf of another person because Christ sacrificed himself for us.

Patience, forbearance, and forgiveness are the path to perseverance. Your marriage will not only survive with Christlike perseverance; it will strengthen and shine. Your marriage will become a public demonstration of the gospel of Christ. It will serve his mission, and the strength of your marriage will be a blessing to you as well.

The humility and meekness required for your salvation and new life in Christ must be brought into a healthy marriage.

To see your marriage flourish, you both need to put on the compassion and kindness of Christ.

Sin has a direct, damaging effect on the most intimate human relationship. But in Christ we have the reversal of this curse, and we’ve been given everything we need to heal this damage and see marriages flourish.
