Marriage

Discovering God’s Purpose for Marriage
and How to Participate in It

Marriage is more than a source of happiness, stability, or even companionship. It was created by God for His glory, designed to shape us in holiness, and given as a partnership where two distinct Image Bearers become one in a way that reflects His character to the world. There is always more to understand, more to grow into, and more of God’s purpose to participate in.

Two distinct Image Bearers. One shared purpose.

Inside Image Bearing Marriage
