Marriage Discipleship
Harvest USA offers biblical wisdom on God’s design for marriage, sex within marriage, and broken marriages.
Marriage is a tremendous gift created by God for his glory and the good of his people. God’s mind-stretching creativity brought forth men and women—two complementary creatures with the capacity to more fully bear his image as male and female, becoming one flesh through a lifelong, exclusive union (including sexual, emotional, relational, and sexual faithfulness) and to grow together in Christlikeness.
From the moment sin infected the human heart it wrecked marriages, leading to selfishness, autonomy, and weakness in the face of temptations and an enemy committed to robbing God of glory.
In Christ, however, marriages become beautiful from the ashes of sin, betrayal, and broken trust as husbands and wives surrender and submit to his lordship and defer to one another in humility.
