The Meaning of Marriage

If half of marriages end in divorce, why get married? What is marriage, anyway, and why do Christians make such a big deal about it? There is much confusion today about the purpose and meaning of marriage. Often reduced to a legal contract between two parties, marriage seems old fashioned and superfluous. Yet, Holy Scripture provides a much greater picture of marriage and human sexuality. This week, Fr. Ben Williams delivers the third installment of our series titled Very Good, on creation, marriage, and chastity with a message about the meaning of marriage.
