Marriage is a lifelong journey of growth and change from "summary" of The Meaning of Marriage by Timothy Keller,Kathy Keller
Marriage is not just a one-time event, but rather a continual process of growth and transformation. It is a journey that both partners embark on together, learning and evolving as individuals and as a couple. This journey is marked by moments of joy and fulfillment, as well as challenges and difficulties that test the strength of the relationship. As time passes, each partner will inevitably change and grow in different ways. It is important for couples to recognize and embrace these changes, supporting each other through the ups and downs of life. This mutual support and commitment are essential for a marriage to thrive and endure over the long haul. In the midst of change, it is crucial for couples to maintain open communication and a willingness to adapt. This means being willing to listen to each other's perspectives, even when they differ, and working together to find common ground. It also means being willing to let go of old habits and patterns that no longer serve the relationship, and embracing new ways of thinking and being together.- A strong and healthy marriage is built on a foundation of love, respect, and mutual understanding. It is about two individuals coming together to create something greater than themselves, and committing to each other through thick and thin. This journey of growth and change is not always easy, but it is incredibly rewarding for those who are willing to put in the effort and dedication required.
