How Your Marriage Adorns the Gospel

In this audio talk, Bob Lepine explores what sets a Christian marriage apart, emphasizing that its success can’t be measured by worldly standards alone. While some non-Christian marriages may appear more harmonious, Lepine challenges couples to evaluate their marriage by another standard: does it reflect the beauty and character of Christ? He outlines two key marks of a distinctively Christian marriage—a different purpose and a different kind of love. Marriage, he explains, is designed to glorify God and display Christ’s relationship with the church to the world. Lepine also considers the people who observe our marriages and what our relationships communicate to them. He concludes with a call to cultivate a Christlike love that sets Christian marriages apart.
