Topic: divorce

 And the subject of marriage is an exciting topic in our culture right now, because our culture has two competing ideas on marriage right now. 

First view, not interested in marriage.  Marriage is expensive.  Marriage is an institution.  Marriage is designed by governments to control and oppress.  Women don’t need marriage because they can make their own money.  Men don’t need marriage, because they have pornography, so that in our culture today, especially in Austin, it’s common to find people who want nothing to do with marriage.

But, there are some people in Austin who are very excited about marriage.  The excitement doesn’t have anything to do with Jesus, but people love the wedding dress, decorations, invitations, event venue, and finding that special someone. But God’s Word gives us a different perspective toward marriage this morning.
