Episode notes
Stay Faithful In Unequal Marriages
- If you're already married to an unbelieving partner, stay and live faithfully unless coexistence becomes impossible.
- Work as a Christian within that marriage and allow your life to witness rather than hastily leaving the relationship.
Be Cautious Marrying Non-Christians
- Be cautious about marrying a non-Christian if you take your faith seriously.
- Avoid assuming the unbelieving partner will inevitably convert; differences often break down under real hardship.
Include Singles In Church Life
- Churches should include and accommodate single people in social life and ministry.
- Avoid organizing every event around couples and intentionally invite and involve unmarried members.
