In this episode of Singles & Courting, we dive deep into the sacred nature of marriage as a covenant—a binding, spiritual agreement between husband and wife, anchored in vows made before God.

Drawing from biblical covenants like Noah’s, Abrahamic, and the New Covenant, we’ll discuss how these ancient promises reflect the sanctity of marital commitments.
We’ll break down why marriage is more than a contract; it’s a perpetual promise sealed by God, not just a mutual exchange of benefits. We’ll explore the key covenant responsibilities, emphasizing the husband's call to love his wife sacrificially and the wife’s role in submission and trust, supported by scriptures such as Ephesians 5:22-25 and 1 Corinthians 13:4-7.
Join us as we shed light on how understanding and fulfilling these covenant responsibilities can strengthen your marriage, deepen your connection, and align your relationship with God’s divine design. Whether you’re seeking guidance, affirmation, or inspiration, this episode is packed with insights to help you honor the sacred covenant of marriage.
