"Marriage, as a union of faithful and indissoluble love, is based upon the grace that comes from the triune God, who in Christ loved us with a faithful love, even to the Cross." .... “Matrimony is a Gospel in itself, a good news for the world of today, especially the de-Christianized world.”

“There is one thing, Emma, which a man can always do if he chooses, and that is his duty; not by manoeuvring and finessing, but by vigour and resolution. – Mr. Knightley”

"Can marriage work? Can a man and woman share their lives, be faithful to one another and build a stable home for their children? It is hard to say. Millions have tried it. Many have failed at it, but more have succeeded. The evidence suggests that marriage can indeed work. But you are not wondering about marriage in general. You are wondering about a particular marriage, your marriage, or the marriage of one of your children or that of a friend. Can this marriage work? You would be wise to give it your best energy. Avail yourself of the finest counsel. Be as devoted and intentional with it as you can, else you will never know. “Come and see!” Jesus says."
