Before we got married,Matt went to church with me every Sunday.He always seemed to like it.We discussed the sermons.He told me that he was a christain,but how can you be a christain and not want to go to Church?
Many couples never get to dicuss their religious beliefs at all.To marry simply because you are "in love" and to ignore the implications of these spiritual differences are signs of immaturity...Gary Chapman
But as adults,we have the responsibility to seek the truth in all areas of life.It is very important to discuss your religious belief,the fact that you met in church or the fact that he goes to church doesn't mean he's spiritual or has a personal relationship with God and note this "that doesn't make him a devil".This should only make you ask questions like.
1.What kind of Christian are you?
2.What do you think about God?
3.How often do you pray?
4.What do you see about quiet time?
5.Do you really believe in morning devotion?
6.What is view with fasting and prayer?
Answers to these questions will help your relationship and marriage especially marriage.I have heard this personal experience with my marriage too where I had to ask my husband "that are you really sure I met you in church,because I couldn't just understand his own kind of christainity" 😂😂😂😂 You know women can be over spiritual sometimes but with time and with the help of the holy spirit plus wisdom from God,we passed through that phase of life and now we are so cool with our spiritual life.
Spiritual compatibility is also key so as to avoid conflicts in marriage because many couples assume that this area of life will take care of itself after marriage and therefore left unexplored while dating.
Lastly,because our religious beliefs affect all of life,it's very important that we explore the foundation of spiritual compatibility before we make the commitment to marriage.I hope this helps someone out there.
Share to a young wife to be.
