In the Scriptures, the pattern of marrying and being given in marriage is a picture of normality. Sometimes it is a picture of normality on the brink of judgment, as when people were doing all their normal things just before Noah’s flood. “For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating …

We have all gathered here in order to witness the formation of a new household. This new household will be made up of two Christians, but once it is formed, it is also going to be greater than the sum ...

Marriage, as designed by God, is a glorious instrument of dominion. If we want to understand what is going on here today, we must understand this. Weddings are the front door to marriage, and marriage and dominion are woven tightly together. When God created our first parents, He gave them dominion over the entire world. …

There is really only one reason why marriages become unhappy over time, and that reason is sin.

And by “dealing with …

God in His infinite wisdom has determined to make men and women very, very different. But we must be careful because there are different kinds of differences. What do I mean? A coral reef and a cirrus cloud are quite different—as in entirely different. A violin and a bow are also completely different, but a …

The world uses the word love a lot, but tends to fall into certain destructive patterns in their pursuit of it. One kind of love is conditional on the front end—“I will love you if . . .” Another is conditional after the fact—“I love you because . . .” I will love you in …

Of course we confess the fact that God is the Creator of all things, but we have to be more specific than this. God did not just create matter, bringing it all forth out of nothing—although He did in fact do that. God created all the constituent parts of the cosmos, which would include time …

Posted on Sunday, July 14, 2019 by Douglas Wilson

There is a reason why we see so many unhappy marriages today, and that reason has to do with the impotence of idols. Idols always promise to hang the moon, but idols uniformly fail to deliver. Not only do they fail to deliver, but one of the first things they usually fail to deliver is …
