The wounds that occur in marriage often seem so deep they can’t be healed or forgiven. Anger, bitterness, and even hatred can develop because of sins against each other, and all of these emotions can be difficult to overcome. But in this video, Matt and Ariel Holcomb explain that how we respond to our feelings and circumstances will teach our children about the nature of God. The example we set can either give an accurate portrayal of our Heavenly Father or do the opposite.

It’s easy for us to imagine ourselves in a better situation than we are in right now. This is especially true when conflict in marriage becomes unbearable. Christians must be wary of allowing our thoughts to create a “grass is greener” picture, as this can be the beginning of infidelity and divorce. In this video, Matt and Ariel Holcomb explain that God created the covenant of marriage for our good, and while it won’t satisfy all our desires, He uses it to bring holiness into our lives. That is where we find genuine delight.
