Advances in modern medicine, a better understanding of a balanced diet, and more attention to exercise all have contributed to people living longer. It would be reasonable to assume, therefore, that people would be married longer, too. But that is not always the case.
While Jill and I were gratified when people congratulated us on completing 50 years of marriage, we were saddened that so many people, at the same time, reflected on the relative "rarity" of such an event! Surely this is a commentary on the struggles many people are experiencing in their married lives. We decided to focus this 4-message series on marriage as a divine institution and celebrate what God had in mind when he ordained the married estate for the men and women He has created.
This series is available on both CD and DVD.
