How Does Faith Shape Lasting Marriages in Today’s World?
Picking up from last weeks podcast, "Ask Mom and Dad," hosts Greg and Tonya dive into the evolving landscape of marriage, focusing on the decline in overall divorce rates juxtaposed with the rise of "gray divorces" among couples married over 25 years. They explore contributing factors like economic challenges, shifting cultural norms, and the impact of empty nest syndrome, drawing from personal anecdotes and a session discussing rising divorce rates in longer marriages. With references to an Atlantic article and Ephesians 5, they highlight how faith, shared values, and intentional effort—such as finding common interests—can strengthen relationships. The conversation also touches on parenting, homeschooling trends, and the church’s role in fostering stable families, urging listeners to prioritize commitment and spiritual grounding.
