Bare Marriage

CHAPTER

Every Man's Battle

Paul is actually addressing a very specific context in the church in Corinth where people were artificially delaying marriage because they felt that it was a less spiritual or less holy state.

And when you frame it up as such I worry it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.
