This talk takes its cue from the Westminster Confession of Faith on the purpose of marriage as we explore the question, What should a Christian look for in a spouse?
Just how important is it that a Christian should marry in the Lord? And what about seeking unity in our religious distinctives? What role does physical attraction play for a couple? What brief phrase best summarizes the essence of marriage? In what ways does a common Christian faith not only provide a mutual helpfulness between husband and wife, but also benefit to the children? What is the biblical orientation about children? How are we to understand the necessity and calling to marry from the Scripture?
Hear what the Word of God teaches us as we discover answers to these questions, as well as gain biblical insights from the Westminster Confession of Faith and many of our Puritan brethren on this blessed topic of marriage.

“ Great Sermon! ” The biblical perspective on marriage in this sermon was so refreshing and encouraging. I especially appreciated the beautiful picture of mutual sanctification in a Godly marriage. Thank you!
