Summary
Malachi 2:10-16 reveals God's design for marriage as a covenant between best friends who produce godly offspring. The pastor addresses how faithlessness in marriage reflects unfaithfulness to God, calling believers to guard their marriages against Satan's attacks and seek restoration through the gospel's power.
Highlights
Your spouse will either be a spiritual tailwind, helping you go further faster with Jesus, or a spiritual headwind that makes everything harder. God wants you to have a tailwind, not a headwind.
Raise your primary standard, lower your secondary ones. Your primary standard for a spouse should be spiritual. Loves Jesus, likes you. That's good.
By the power of the spirit, with the help of the church, and over time, you can have a new marriage with the same spouse. You can both be so transformed by the power of the gospel that you're like, this doesn't even feel like the same marriage that we had when we first started out.
