Summary

Main message: A healthy, lasting marriage—defined by God's design as one man and one woman becoming "one flesh"—is one of the greatest gifts parents can give their children and a primary way to fight for and protect the family.

Key points:

  • Marriage is defined by Scripture as one man and one woman united as "one flesh."
  • God, as the Designer, gets to define marriage; human institutions cannot redefine the divine design.
  • "One flesh" is a unique union that does not apply to children, parents, jobs, or hobbies.
  • A strong, enduring marriage often matters more for children's wellbeing than other improvements to their childhood.

Scriptures mentioned: Matthew 19:5, Genesis
