Favored or Forsaken: Marriage
In honor of Valentine’s Day, we thought we would discuss whether marriage is favored or forsaken! Join Jamie, Erin, and Evan as they unpack the Biblical, historical, and current views on marriage to decide whether it is good for the Christians OR bad for the Christians. What’s the deal with singleness in the Church? Is Owen Wilson an expert on the historical accuracy of marriage? Answers to these questions AND MORE await you in this matrimonial episode!
