10 Reasons to Stay Married

Ministry Partner of Intentional Living

Dr. Randy Carlson

1.    Because God wants us to stay married for life.

2.    Because marriage is a picture of the love God has for the church and each divorce damages
       that picture.

3.    Because divorce hurts. Children, in-laws, friends and you!

4.    Because second and third marriages tend to be even less successful than first marriages.

5.    Because divorce often creates serious financial problems for one or both parties.

6.    Because you lose friends and family.

7.    Because you lose out on what could have been.

8.    Because you both once loved each other and could recapture that love if you both choose to
      do so.

9.    Because it is generally good for your health.

10. Because it builds personal character.
