One of the things that gets confused often is the difference between marriage and good marriage.

Marriage is pretty meaningless without the notion of having a specific person to whom you are married.
My parents aren't married. And one of the reasons why they never got married is because they had been married before, and they liked it the way it was. They didn't feel like they needed a piece of paper to be committed. So for me, I know that marriage is not a golden ticket.

Marriage is very secure. It is safe. There is no growth in it. One is simply stuck. Marriage is a sexual arrangement; intimacy is a search for love.

I want to clarify it: I'm not against marriage, marriage is great if you want to get married. A lot of my friends are happily married.

The highest meaning and the most ultimate purpose of marriage is to put the covenant relationship of Christ and his church on display. That is why marriage exists. If you are married, that is why you are married. If you hope to be, that should be your dream.
