Marriage is a big deal to us here at VF&G and so we have a tendency to write about it often. About being married, how to get married, why we marry, how to prepare children for marriage (we happen to think marriage is the most important thing to prepare you children for, well right after following God of course).
You won’t find a lot of cultural nonsense about marriage, whether worldly culture or current Christian cultural psycho-babble. And what you find here may actual nip at your feelings. I hope you don’t find us too offensive in what we have to say and if we need to be corrected in our thinking, if we have missed the mark scripturally, please, do tell us. We appreciate being held accountable for what we have to say, what we are thinkin’ . We take that accountability from any one, after all, God has used many types of folks and things to speak to His people,not just the folks that you meet with weekly.
