The Ten Commandments: #7: Guard Your Marriage Against Adultery

A faithful Christian marriage doesn’t happen by accident. In this special 250th episode of Family Vision, Rob and Amy Rienow share candid stories and biblical truths about protecting your marriage from temptation, emotional affairs, and pornography. Adultery doesn’t start with a moment—it starts with a drift. Learn how to guard your heart, invest in your spouse, and pursue God-honoring intimacy in today’s culture.

Marriage isn’t just about avoiding disaster. It’s about building joy, unity, and strength over time. Discover practical wisdom on social media boundaries, how fantasy shapes emotional detachment, and why investing in your spouse’s needs protects both hearts. If your marriage feels stuck or threatened, this episode is for you.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

- How emotional affairs begin and how to guard against them - Why pornography doesn’t disappear after marriage - The connection between temptation, fantasy, and dissatisfaction - How to talk to your kids about protecting marriage in a digital age - Hope and biblical encouragement for couples struggling with betrayal or disconnection
