Marriage and Family

Since Debbie's diagnosis of early onset dementia, her husband Jay, a good friend of mine, has written eloquently about their experience. Each time he sends an update about Debbie, I’ve deeply appreciated his heartfelt insights, and faithful love for his precious wife.

Question from a reader:

I am presently separated from my husband and considering divorce because of his repeated betrayal of our marriage through pornography use. What are your perspectives?

I have been married to Nanci for over 40 years, and I still am learning things about her. This is both a mystery and a delight. 

I get that life is busy and money can be tight. But make it a priority to date your spouse. Put it in your schedule and your budget!

The world should be able to look at a husband’s love for his wife and see what the gospel means, and be drawn to the beauty and power of God’s love for His people. That’s why I love this moving story that Garrett Kell shares about a faithful, gospel-centered marriage.

This is NOT an attack piece on the divorced. It is written for the many believers who may be considering a divorce too soon because it is a cultural norm.

Julia (Stager) Mayo’s video blog today is on the topic of singleness and the church. I encourage everyone, single or married, to listen to her insights and wise advice. 

Ever since my children could talk, I have been instilling in them a joy and longing for Heaven. My daughter especially loves to talk and ask questions about Heaven. However, this is unsettling for my husband.
