25/07/18. That Spirituality is not to be Equated with "Going to Church"

Word count:
"Can two walk together, except they be agreed?"

Book review: Things I wish I'd known before we got married
I remember the young lady who said to me, "I've been in a relationship with Andrew for three years. When we started, he told me that he was a Christian. We have many common interests and we have many wonderful times together. But I realized that we are not marching to the beat of the same drummer when it comes to spirituality. For him, Christianity is a religion; something you do on Sunday but it has little relevance to how he makes decisions and lives his life. For me Christianity is my life. Nothing is more important to me than investing my life in serving Christ. I realize that we don't have the spiritual foundation on which to build a Christian marriage. Therefore I am breaking off our relationship."

I think this young lady is extremely mature. If after 3years she had seen little spiritual movement on his part to become more personally involved in his relationship with God, to think that we could CHANGE AFTER MARRIAGE WOULD BE NAIVE. Three years later, she married a young man who had a similar level of commitment to his faith in Christ and the two of them are in the process of building a truly Christian Marriage.

LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP.
