The Evolving Understanding of Marriage
Marriage is often seen through the lens of happiness and fulfillment—questions like, "Am I happy?" or "Is my spouse treating me well?" But as Johnny points out, God's intent for marriage encompasses so much more. He recalls a profound realization brought to light by Gary Thomas, author of Sacred Marriage, who asks the pivotal question: What if marriage is more about making you holy than it is about making you happy? This shift in perspective can be a game-changer in how we approach our relationships.
