Where do you turn when your family is in trouble? Some confide in a friend; others call a marriage “expert,” like a pastor or counselor. Many people in the world consult a psychologist, only to come away with theories and five-step plans; or more commonly, they call a psychiatrist and get themselves a prescription.

That means the Bible is our only source for a godly life, marriage, and family. It's not hidden, mysterious, or difficult to understand.
