Marriage

A Healthy Marriage Takes More Than Good Intentions

Marriage can bring deep joy, but it can also reveal stress, conflict, disappointment, and patterns that are hard to change. Whether you’re newly married, rebuilding trust, navigating a difficult season, or simply wanting to grow stronger together, you do not have to figure it out alone. At Providence Church, we believe faith should become visible love in the way we listen, forgive, serve, and care for one another.

Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone? And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

— ECCLESIASTES 4:9-12

Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.

— EPHESIANS 5:25

With all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

— EPHESIANS 4:2-3

Bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.

— COLOSSIANS 3:13-14

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

— 1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-7
