Episode 138: Covenant: What Holds the Family Together

Brenton and Chris explore how culture has shaped the church’s view of marriage, often reducing it to something fragile or temporary. They contrast this with the biblical vision of marriage as a covenant marked by leaving, cleaving, and weaving—pursuing real oneness rather than just staying together. The conversation highlights common struggles like drifting into “roommate” living, unhealthy family ties, and losing connection amid busy life seasons. They emphasize honoring singleness, seeing hardship as a chance for growth, and grounding forgiveness and perseverance in the gospel. Ultimately, marriage is presented as a living picture of Christ’s love and grace.
