Here Kevin Swanson interviews Paul David Tripp, author of "What Did You Expect? Redeeming the Realities of Marriage." Here is some very helpful advice for anybody married or about to be married to another sinner.

The Hardness of Heart
This devotional examines the biblical perspective on divorce and remarriage, centering on Jesus' response to the Pharisees in Mark 10. The teaching emphasizes that God's original ideal for marriage is a permanent, exclusive union reflecting His nature, while acknowledging that the 'hardness of heart' resulting from sin necessitates the provision for divorce. The speaker distinguishes between the ideal and the reality of sin, explaining that Jesus permits divorce only in the case of sexual immorality, which breaks the 'one flesh' bond. The discussion highlights the importance of seeking God's mind over personal emotional agendas and affirms that forgiveness is available for those who have broken these standards. The tone is pastoral and instructional, aiming to provide clarity and grace to those navigating the complexities of marital dissolution.
