A healthy Christian marriage is rooted in the local church and under the Ministry of the Word. There are so many people who are confused about the meaning and purpose of marriage to begin with. But it is so much more than our feelings for each other.

Should Only Pastors Officiate Weddings?

Questions in this Episode

  1. Is Jesus saying that believers will be left behind in Luke 17:34?
  2. What does it mean in Matthew 18 that the apostles have the authority to “bind and loose” things on earth and in heaven? Can all Christians do this?
  3. Should only pastors officiate weddings? I am a youth leader and one of my former students is getting married and asked if I would marry them but I’m not sure what to do.
  4. I’m a new Christian. What can I do to keep the faith?
  5. Does the proof of my faith rest on my ability to stop sinning?
