SNAKE 64: Is Being a Christian the Only Valid Consideration for Marriage?

In this episode of our podcast, we tackle the challenging intersection of faith, consequences, and marriage, asking bold questions like: What are the limits of the gospel when it comes to past mistakes? Can repentance erase the temporal consequences of sin? And how should Christian men and women approach relationships in light of biblical masculinity and gender roles? We react to a controversial tweet that sparked a heated debate on social media, exploring how natural consequences, spiritual restoration, and wisdom play out in marriage and parenting.

Join us as we draw on our experiences as pastors and members of Reformation Church in Shelbyville, Kentucky, to unpack these critical topics. From the lasting impact of sin to the importance of shared backgrounds in relationships, we leave no stone unturned in this raw and honest discussion.
