The Westminster Catechism asks: What is chief end of man? The answer: "The chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever." I like John Piper's version. "The chief end of man is to glorify God BY enjoying Him forever." If we intend to glorify God in our lives, then surely Marriage for God's Glory should be a high priority in our lives. We live in a day when it seems all the arsenal of darkness and destruction has been unleashed against the institution of marriage. The church at large today basically has the same standard for the sanctity of the marriage vow as the world. I think it's time for revival in our thinking about marriage!
Marriage for God's Glory is built around the application of the gospel to this vital building block institution. One of the most important and valuable legacies a couple can leave for the next generation is a marriage that preaches the truth about Jesus Christ. How is that to be done? What is God's purpose for marriage? How can you and your wife demonstrate the mysterious oneness of Christ and the church? Can a marriage that has gone sour be revived and glorify God? Is there any hope if you've fallen out of love with your spouse or he or she has fallen out of love with you? The answers to these questions and more are clearly answered in the six-message series, Marriage for God's Glory.
