As a Christian, your relationship should always be Christ-centred. This essentially means that you should put God before your partner. Courting is not about pleasing your partner but it’s about pleasing God in unity. The end goal is to marry someone who has the same purpose in life. Many times you see people placing their [...]
Can you imagine praising God on one of the worst days of your life? I can now, but that hasn't always been the case. I was sixteen years old when I attended my first funeral, that of my seventeen-year-old cousin who had died of heart failure. When my mom broke the news, I walked out [...]
When two individuals are courting, it means that they are preparing themselves to eventually get married to one another, right? It's not all too unusual that their focus is then shifted towards planning the wedding and preparing for marriage.

There is a particular scripture that always stands out to me which can be found in 1 John 4:4, which says: [...]
Let me start by sharing the perspective I had on marriage for a couple of years, due to what I witnessed in my personal life. At a certain point in life I thought that marriage was not worth it. I had lost faith in the in the whole institution of marriage, because I wondered how [...]
