    Your Spouse is Not the Enemy

    Your Spouse is Not the Enemy

    Modern culture has pulled us away from God’s purpose and plan for marriage. In fact, Christian wedding vows are now considered old fashioned, or even oppressive.

    In this episode of Family Vision, Dr. Rob & Amy Rienow continue their conversation about pursuing unity in marriage.

    Genesis 2:26, “For this reason a man will leave father and mother, cleave to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”

    They discuss how spiritual warfare plays a role in causing conflict in marriage relationships and how couples can find unity in Christ.

    It is easy to see the faults and issues in your husband or wife. It is more difficult to see how your attitudes and behaviors may be contributing to conflicts in the marriage.
