Why Commitment is Essential in a Marriage

by |

In this video, we talk about why commitment is absolutely essential to the long-term health of a marriage. But it’s not just one type of commitment, but three: Commitment to the Lord, to our spouse, and to our marriage are all foundational in having a healthy marriage.

[1:11] Marriage is not only a commitment to your spouse, but it is a commitment to the Lord.

[1:55] Commitment provides safety and security in marriage.

[4:03] We can express our emotions because there is safety in the commitment
