"Marriage" - Mark 10:1-12

This morning we’re going to spend some time talking about marriage. Is traditional marriage becoming a thing of the past? Statistics tell us that half of all marriages end in divorce. Both men and women are waiting longer to get married. But while cultural attitudes may be changing, Jesus paints an entirely different picture of marriage. Mark tells us that the Pharisees asked Jesus to weigh in on the subject of marriage and divorce. Jesus’ response points us to God’s purpose for marriage. Marriage is a picture of Jesus’ relationship to His bride - the church. How do followers of Jesus respond to our culture’s changing views of marriage? He tells us that we are to make marriage a display for God’s grace.
