Sermon: Marriage

Proverbs 5:18
Let your fountain be blessed,
And rejoice in the wife of your youth.

We continue through Proverbs to the hot topic of marriage in our top ten countdown. This one was a little more challenging because of the text and its interpretation. We are looking at Proverbs 5:15-20 and at the beginning the instructor uses the images of water to talk about the marriage bed. Very interesting stuff and challenging.

Often the Bible has been accused of being unsophisticated. Even Augustine, the most famous church father in the early church felt the Bible lacked style and elogence, and actually hindered him for some time in becoming a Christian. But when I read a book like Proverbs, I am truly impressed by its depth of wisdom and insight. Find out for yourself as we continue to look at Proverbs this summer.
